TOPIC OFFICEL des Twilight Addicts

Kris continue sur sa lancée des rôles " challenging ", après What Just Happened? où elle joue la jeune fille très volage de Robert De Niro, après Adventureland, ou elle se retrouve dans la peau d'une jeune accro de la drogue qui entretient une aventure avec un homme marié de 30 ans (Ryan Reynolds), après Welcome To The Riley's où elle est cette fois-ci une ado détruite de 15 ans, strip-teaseuse et prostituée et K-Eleven où elle joue un jeune détenu...masculin, Kris va prochainement interpréter Joan Jett, chanteuse de rock américaine connu pour "Cherry Bomb", "I love rock'n'roll", "Bad Reputation"....

Twilight star Kristen Stewart is set to portray Joan Jett in The Runaways, the rock 'n' roll biopic of the 1970s all-girl band.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, video director Floria Sigismondi wrote the screenplay and is directing, while John and Art Linson and River Road Entertainment's Bill Pohlad are producing. Jett will act as an executive producer.

The Runaways were hugely influential as the first successful all-girl hard rock band; its members included guitarists Jett and Lita Ford, drummer Sandy West, singer-keyboardist Cherie Currie and bassist Jackie Fox. The band was brought together in late 1975 by impresario Kim Fowley, who thought a novelty act of teenaged girls performing in leather and lace would be an easy sell, but the girls ended up proving to be serious and influential musicians with songs like "Cherry Bomb." The band lasted about four years together, falling apart over management and money issues.

The film will revolve around Jett and Currie and follow them from the band's meteoric rise as teenagers to their dissolution and disillusionment.

The movie is eyeing a 2009 start and will work around Stewart's commitments to the two "Twilight" sequels.

Hot on the heels of Twilight's box office killing, Kristen Stewart has been cast as rocker Joan Jett in 2009's The Runaways, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The biopic focuses on Jett's all-girl band of the same name, which rocked its way to moderate success Stateside and even greater stardom abroad in the late '70s. This is the second "edgy" role Stewart has taken on since starring in the vampire flick. Perhaps not wanting to be typecast as gawky teen Bella Swan, Stewart will play a stripper in the upcoming Welcome to the Rileys. She talked with EW earlier this year about frequenting a strip club in New Orleans to prepare for the role. ''I danced on the bar there three nights this week, and my legs are covered in bruises,'' Stewart said. ''Hopefully, the Twilight fans won't totally freak out.''

Well, Twilight fans, are you freaking out? Do you have any qualms about Stewart playing the guitar goddess -- or a pole dancer for that matter? Or are you happy to see her branching out into new, challenging roles? And for you Joan Jett fans, is Kristen badass enough to embody the role?
