Kristen Stewart has signed on to play famous rock’n'roller Joan Jett in the film "The Runaways". Music video director Floria Sigismondi wrote and will help with the project.
The film is a biopic of the first successful all-girl hard rock band The Runaways, which fell apart after four years due to management and money disputes. According to THR, the film “will revolve around Jett and [singer-keyboardist Cherie] Currie and follow them from the band’s meteoric rise as teenagers to their dissolution and disillusionment.”
River Road Entertainment hopes to go into production in 2009, but they will have to work around the Twilight sequel New Moon.
