Dakota Fanning & Kristen Stewart in "Runaways" Set Photos

>> Jul 3, 2009

Currently, a batch of set photos from the upcoming musical flick "The Runaways" have break free to the web via JustJared.com. Those photos featuring young actresses Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning in their retro 70's outfits for the upcoming film based on the biopic of Joan Jett (Stewart) and her original all-girl band - "The Runaways." These two rising stars must lead busy lives indeed. Having wrapped on "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" only a matter of weeks ago, they are already in full costume for this next project. The 15-year-old Dakota Fanning also looking much older than she should as Runaways lead singer Cherie Currie, she’s almost unrecognisable beneath her makeup, blonde wig, and rock-chick clothes, she's really growing up fast from the little girl who appeared in the likes of "War Of The Worlds." Find other photos of them below or just click here to see some more paparazzi shots of the two.

"The Runaways" (Neon Angels) is based on lead-singer Cherie Currie's book 'Neon Angel' - a reflection of her experiences as a rock star, but also delivering a strong anti-drug warning to teens and others. David Bowie's "Space Oddity" serves as a metaphor for the narrative-- a slow countdown, a surreal but spectacular rise to fame, then alienation and burnout - a long long way from home.
The movie chronicles "The Runaways" from 1975 - 1977; formed by teenage girls living near Hollywood, CA., and heavily manipulated by their manager Kim Fowley as 'jailbait rock' (all the girls were 16 or younger when the band recorded their first album). The band ultimately succeeds on their own merits as musicians, becoming the first all-girl rock-band to ever break into the world of arena-filling hard rock acts.
