Written by Violet on January 25, 2010 – 9:55 pm -

Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning are in Park City, Utah at the Sundance Film Festival promoting their other film together The Runaways. The two teen costars popped in to a Joan Jett and the Blackhearts concert at Harry O’s on Sunday January 24th and appeared briefly onstage with Jett and former Runaways bandmate, Cheri Currie.

Fanning is portraying Currie in the upcoming movie and Stewart will be seen as Jett in the pic that chronicles the rise of the all teenage girl band of the seventies.

The flick opens Friday March 19th and will be talked about just for the kissing scene between Stewart and Fanning.

    Dakota Fanning ‘Everyone Will Have To Let Me Grow Up’

    Written by Violet on January 18, 2010 – 5:40 pm -

    The expectations for The Runaways movie premiering at the Sundance Film Festival next Sunday (January 24th) is very high. The movie stars Dakota Fanning as Cherie Currie and Kristen Stewart as Joan Jett, two teenagers in the 70’s who formed the all girl rock group that is still influential to this day.

    Fanning’s portrayal of Currie is gaining lots of buzz - the young girl everyone watched as a child will take a bite out of adult stardom with this performance and solidify her transition away from kiddie parts and into the realm that many younger actors find elusive.

    “I’m just portraying what was going on with [Cherie] when she was my age,” Fanning said. “I want to continue to act for my whole life. Eventually, everyone will have to let me grow up, somehow, some way. I’m just trying to let that happen as naturally as I can.”

    She and Stewart have a great friendship thanks in part to this film (and of course, the Twilight films) and Fanning says that will show on screen. The make-out scene between the two characters will definitely get lots of ink.

    What do you think? Ready to see Fanning and Stewart together? Or are you going to miss this all together and wait for Eclipse in June?

    On her ’sexy, wild-child’ role in The Runaways: “I really enjoyed doing that subject matter for the first time in a biopic, because it really happened, it’s not just a made-up story about a 15-year-old running wild.

    MTV Ulalume - ‘New Moon’ Cast Interviews & Movie Clip

    Written by Violet on October 31, 2009 – 4:33 pm -

    MTV has premiered a ‘new’ clip of The Twilight Saga: New Moon during it’s Ulalume Festival special that aired this weekend. This isn’t really new - just an extended version of Bella’s birthday and her paper cut that unleashes Jasper’s thirst for human blood. Check out all the interviews and cast chat with Ashley Greene, Kellan Lutz, Jackson Rathbone, Elizabeth Reaser and Nikki Reed. Taylor Lautner, Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson do make a brief appearance at the end to intro the extended clip. I still think someone should create a youtube with all the clips and pics Summit has released - there would be no need to go to the theaters - it feels like the entire movie is online already.

    The Volturi “New Moon” Promo Photos

    Written by Gossip Gal on August 28, 2009 – 5:28 pm -

    The Volturi is one super powerful family of twisted vampires that make their first appearance on the second movie of The Twilight Saga, “New Moon”, and will torment Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) and Bella Swan’s (Kristen Stewart) lives till the end of the series.

    So who are The Volturi family members (promo pictures below):

    Dakota Fanning as Jane
    Michael Sheen as Aro
    Jamie Campbell-Bower as Caius
    Christopher Heyerdahl as Marcus
    Cameron Bright as Alec

    “NEW MOON” Volturi Vampires Revealed:

    Jane (Dakota Fanning)

    She’s a ruthless little one, but in her defense, she had a rough go of it in the days before she was turned into a vampire. Humans thought she and her brother, Alec, were actually witches and decided to burn them alive. The Volturi, who were biding their time before transforming Jane and her bro, were compelled to act earlier than planned. So while Jane may look young, she’s actually been around for a while and maintains a powerful place in the Volturi ranks. Her special ability is to inflict incapacitating pain with her thoughts — a skill she developed after being burned at the stake. “She’s innocent-looking in appearance but she’s absolutely deadly,” director Chris Weitz said.

    Caius (Jamie Campbell Bower)
    You don’t want to mess with this member of the Volturi coven. Turned around 1300 B.C., Caius is mercilessly cruel. One of the three leaders, he’s gunning to exterminate Edward, Bella and Alice Cullen (Ashley Greene), but Volturi founder Aro decides that isn’t the best course of action.

    Alec (Cameron Bright)
    Brother to Jane, Alec has risen to become one of the Volturi Guard. As with his sister, it’s unknown when he was transformed, nor exactly how old he truly is. What is known is that both siblings are invaluable to the Volturi: Since joining the coven, the group rarely has to engage in actual fighting — the siblings’ skills allow for the outright slaughter of their enemies.

    Marcus (Christopher Heyerdahl)
    The first pic of Marcus is creepy, creepy, creepy — the thin, red lips, the hands stretching out toward the camera. Since the death of his wife, Marcus has become detached from the rest of the Volturi leadership. Turned at about 1300 B.C., he’s developed almost zombie-like characteristics and is completely apathetic. Yet he maintains the special ability to perceive the strength of a relationship between two people. In this way, he is well aware of the intensity of Edward and Ella’s connection.

    Aro (Michael Sheen)
    The founder of the coven and its de facto leader, Aro possesses the ability to read a person’s thoughts simply by touching them. Unfortunately for him, this supernatural skill doesn’t work on Bella.
    “[A]fter 2,000 years you’d probably be more than mildly insane,” Weitz said. “No matter how cultured or gracious you appear on the surface. And I think that’s what Michael Sheen managed to portray as Aro, the head of the Volturi — on the surface he’s terribly gracious, warm, a wonderful host, and at the same time he’s lethal and frightening.”

    Dakota Fanning: New York Times Fashionable

    Written by Violet on August 17, 2009 – 10:57 pm -

    Dakota Fanning is only 15 but she is an in demand actress and part of two of the most talked about upcoming films: The Runaways where she plays lead singer Cherie Currie and The Twilight Saga: New Moon as the evil vampire Jane Volturi.

    She does all of this work while attending a private school in Los Angeles and manages to keep her head on straight when it comes to the fame and intrusiveness of the business. Able to have a private life (and not on the brink of self-destruction) she says:

    ‘‘You have to be able to separate your personal life from playing a character. . . . That’s not your real life.’’

    Check out more of her interview (and great new pics!) with New York Times TMagazine here. She looks great in the photo above, wearing Chanel.

    Fanning is returning to Vancouver with the rest of the cast as they begin shooting the third film in the series: The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.
