Rock out to the first trailer for "The Runaways"
You saw the pictures, now see them move. The teaser trailer for The Runaways was released today and it certainly doesn’t bomb — cherry or otherwise.

Our first glimpses of Kristen Stewart as Joan Jett and Dakota Fanning as Cherie Currie are a blur of big guitar riffs and bigger bad ass attitudes. I know it’s only rock ‘n roll, but I like it.
While the clip doesn’t give us much in terms of plot or dialogue, it sure sets the scene. And in case there were any lingering doubts, Kristen and Dakota look almost frighteningly their parts.

Have I mentioned Dakota is only 15 years old? I think that makes the bustier/garter belt ensemble she is wearing illegal in several states.

Actually, for all the hype Kristen receives as Bella, I think Joan Jett may be her perfect role. It lets her employ that signature pout. Plus, she gets to smash stuff. Playing a chaste sparkly vampire’s girlfriend has to build up the frustration.

Now the only question remains, are you ready to rock?

Should I just tell my mom? (1)
Only you can decide when to come out!: “Just tell her I'm not not even looking right now because I'm not ready to have a relationship with anyone yet... I'll let you know when I find someone I want to be with. ”Posted by MaryD about 12 minutes ago -

At least it's good to see that KStew has recovered from Dakota Fanning trying to kill her in New Moon.
Serioulsy, though: brilliant teaser.

I totally thought the same thing. the way she carries herself and her expression are all Shane. HOT!
i can't flippin wait for this movie!
I agree :)
and it simply gives me THAT much more incentive to be in love with this chick *sigh*
and that lip thing that she does *growl* she had me at hello thats for sure ;)
<<S>>
Yes!
I was ready to rock when I first heard this movie was in production. I think that trailer made my morning... Yeah. It did.
Very occasionally, if you pay attention, life doesn't suck.

Yeppers
I thought the exact same thing, she looks so much like Shane it's ridiculous :D
True feelings can never be put into words.
therfore when you can't explain how you feel about someone that's when you know..
....
i'm so excited i have no words
i can't stop watching that teaser!
....HOTNESS
*faints*
YES!!
:(
I'd love to see all those
I'd love to see all those girls' faces when they watch the movie purely because KS is in this and find out that life exists outside of brooding vampire boys...Trailer was awesome and can't wait for the movie. And what happened to Dakota Fanning!?!? I'm betting she was just waiting to get out of the kids roles and into something a little more real...ding ding ding winner!
Very excited
GAH!
I agree
Kristen was born to play this role.
I'm so surprised by Dakotta Fanning.. this girl's gonna grow up to win an oscar someday.. just wait.
ah damn
i'm about to turn 18 and now you'ver got me crushing on Dakota Fanning, shit.
i'm defiantly going to see this this movie! :)

kristen stewart rocks my...
wow
guuurrrl, katharine was the "shane" of her day...
...
"shane" of her day... i like that..
Thanks :)
Two thoughts
ran through my head simultaneaously when the clip ended:
"Looks great!"
&
"NOT COOL!" Because: "Have I mentioned Dakota is only 15 years old?" Ugh, jeesus, why.
Other than that, It looks very...'70s. I like that it will get the Sundance treatment before it's nationally distributed. Interested to see the buzz coming out of Sundance.
Yep
My thoughts exactly. I'm a bad bad person, crushing on a 15 yo, bad bad bad.
Thankfully Kristen's legal :)
:D
Can't wait for this movie to come out! I hope it comes out here in the UK.
It feels weird thinking Dakota Fanning looks hot in this movie when she's only 15 and I see her as the little girl from all those kids movies she was in (can't name them all) but yeah... she looks hot! There, I said it.
And Kristen Stewart seems to lick/bite her lip a lot. I like it! :D
The trailer looks quite promising
I'd go watch it - based on what I've seen so far :)

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!
That was me screaming... I feel like a tween (I'm 22) but I'm just excited to see (my LOVE) KSTEW in a role where I know she can kick ass (not just a vampire's girl). They do look frighteningly like their characters. I think it'll be a good career transitioning movie for the both of them.
Am I the only one...
Oh no
hey I think it's Kristen's
yeah
CHERRY BOMB!!!
<picks up jaw off ground after watching trailer"
I remember being 12 and running across the first runaways record in the local Record Bar.....i think i've been a wannabe grrrllll rock star every day since.
the movie looks REALLY authentic and well-done...can't wait.
be who you are and say what you feel because the people who mind don't matter and the people who matter don't mind...t.seuss
Whoa!
I was interested in this film but I wasn't going break my neck to be the first in line to see it. BUT- after seeing this trailer! It brought me right back to 1977 when I was 14 years old and saw the Runaways at the mall with my friends! They were so cool and showed everyone how chicks rock just as hard, if not harder than any stupid guy band! So, yeah, I'll be at the theater and I'll be screamin', " I was there Baby! I was effin' THERE!"
Cheers!
.
i cant wait..that movie looks kicken and i still think dakota in lil girl image..haha its soo weird to see her growing up man..but damn she looks sooo grown up in this..hehe i have the runaways on me ipod haha

Hell Yeah!!!
Ready to rock...real hard!!!
Cant stop watching the teaser...I had to stop on my tenth time to write this.
Now I really cant wait till March.

vivono nella speranza
so excited.
oh god I cannot wait for this movie. oh kristen stewart, how I love you.
But I echo all the ickiness about Dakota Fanning. My first thoughts when I saw her were "Dakota you are six years old, wipe that makeup off your face missy." I can't see anyone as a sex object that I have seen on Ellen getting excited about her pink retainer case.

I kinda wish the kiss was with someone else because I am going to be weirded out.. but it's still better than nothing! haha
Awwwwwwww
mah gawd that was adorable...I am so going to hell.
lol
I just watched this trailer
I just watched this trailer three times in a row. It looks great! I was thinking about seeing it before but now I am really excited for it.
At first I was a little weirded out about Dakota Fanning, too, but ever since I saw her in New Moon as Jane I can see her in these roles as a different person and don't think of her as she was when she played much younger.
I'm sooo ready! I mean this
omg
finally we get to see something from this movie. can't wait until i can see it :D
She looks a lot like Kate
She looks a lot like Kate Moennig in this picture.

And storms will surely come,
But true love is a choice you must make
And you're the one that I have set my heart to choose.
As long as I live, I swear I'll see this through.

Ohmygod
I'm so frikin excited! Kristen looks so hot with the guitar and throwing stuff. My major crush has grown to an obsession now lol I'm definietly going to see this soon.
I'd like to take you down, and show you
deep inside, my life my inner workin
so smell and lack of inner pride,
to touch upon the surface, is not for
what it seems, I take away
my problems, but only in my dreams.

OMG!! :D
YES YES YES
I AM READY TO ROOOOOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
True feelings can never be put into words.

i love that.
i love this look on kristen; total lez. she almost looks gayer than kate. almost. [and obviously i mean that in the most complimentary way possible.]
and dakota fanning looks hot, too, and i'm okay with saying that since i'm only just a bit older than her. too bad we don't have more young actresses out there playing parts like this, although i'm sure not many could pull it off.
i cannot wait to see this movie.
omg im SO EXCITED lol Dakota
if thats them singing they sound GREAT!!
i thought maybe they would mime or something.
but ive been looking forward to this since i heard they both signed on xD cant believe its nearly realeased eee
