Kristen Stewart to play rocker Joan Jett

Posted on 03. Dec, 2008 by in News

 Reuters.com is reporting that Kristen Stewart will be staring in another movie:

Fresh from the box-office success of “Twilight,” Kristen Stewart is set to portray Joan Jett in “The Runaways,” the rock ‘n’ roll biopic of the 1970s all-girl band.

The filmmakers are eyeing a 2009 start and will work around Stewart’s commitments to the two “Twilight” sequels. The first, “New Moon,” is expected to shoot in first-quarter 2009, with Stewart reprising her role as Bella, the human who falls for a vampire.

    in a recent interview, kristen said that she had just received the single best part of her career, but couldn’t divulge any details in fear that she might jinx the deal…i presume this is it?
