Dakota Fanning held her script close to her chest yesterday after spending time working on The Runaways with Kristen Stewart in LA. The girls stuck together and left the day of work together, stopping for gas on their way home. While Kristen's had to chop her hair off and dye it black to play Joan Jett, it looks like Dakota's made it so far without having to do anything major to her own look. Her character Cherie Currie was a blonde during the band's heyday, so Dakota should be able to hang on to her own locks.
To see more of Dakota just read more.

i'm loving the look, why is she so embarressed by her haircut!?!
1I wonder who the actresses are who are playing the rest of the band in this movie? These pics are suspect...I think these two are being pawned out on purpose to generate buzz around this movie. I don't think too many people would care otherwise.
2love you KS
3Dakota looks cute! Kristen's hair looks awful though....
4Its so refreshing to see that both are hanging together. Not like those days when the other friend would hug,cling,kiss and ask for a puff while walking.Ughh...Ok that passed.Go Kristen! Go Dakota
5i don't like the hair on Kristen, but i know its just for the part and i do think she will make a great Joan Jett. She definitely has the look nailed!
6ps. dakota's shoes are ridic!!!!!!!
7Her shoes aren't high enough.
8God forgive me but she certainly didnt turn out to be pretty at all did she. Not even a little bit. She is rather unattractive IMO
9missyd, which girl are you referring to? If you're talking about Dakota, she is only 15. She doesn't look now how she will look in a few years. I looked nothing at 15 like I do now. And at 14 I was awful! I think she's adorable. Maybe not sexy, but I don't think she should be at 15 anyway. Maybe she will be when she's 20.
10They seem like they are great friends, love them both!
11I'm sorry, I'm still trying to figure out what Kristen Stewart's appeal is outside of the Twilight world. She looks like trailer trash. I am happy that she seems to beat to her own drum and doesn't feel the need to be girlie like most in Hollywood, but come on people. If she didn't play Bella then no one would like her and everyone would be calling her ugly and dirty. I'm sorry, but when I see her in these pictures I just think she looks smelly and greasy and like she should live in a trailer.
12Im excited about the movie. I wasn't sure about the hair at first but I think she looks great for the part. 100%.
13I can't imagine dressing like Dakota when I was 15. I hope she still has time to enjoy being a teenager!
14Kristen is ugly and Dakota is ugly.. i love Dakota's outfit and i don't think it's too old for her age to dress that way.. i do however think her shoes are too high.. but heyy its her feet

16I take it your not into rock n roll? if you were this look would not offend you. Sounds like your the type of person who is into "High School The Musical" and all that Disney crap. Go Kristen Stewart!!, You Look Absolutely Beautiful!!
I just feel totally bad for Kristen (and celebs in general) that she can't just freakin' pump her gas without all the paps snap, snap, snapping. But I guess by being a member of this site I only feed it, don't I? I've given up buying magazines so as not to support the paps - it's just so horrible how they torture these people.
17Dakota has a mean collection of sky-high heels, that's for sure. Her feet are going to be effed by the time she turns 18.
18She does seem to handle herself well with all the attention from the paps, you'd think another 15 year old might be a bit intimidated by it all.
Poor Kristen, she seems to cop a massive amount of hate. The hair isn't the most flattering cut and colour but she is the spitting image of Joan Jett, which is the whole point.
fuuuugly shoes, ill
19I was referring to Dakota, yes.
20Does anyone know who Dakota is going to be portraying in the movie? Just curious.
21amanda - it says 'Cherie Currie' in the post....
anyway, i hope that the movie turns out well. it has to suck to have to completely chop off your hair for a role knowing that you have another movie set to film in 2 months that you have to have the original 'do ' back for.
22Dakota looks okay here, aside from the shoes which are wildly inappropriate for her age. But I guess most kids with money dress older than they are these days, right? Damn, I only graduated from high school 9 years ago and I'm already finding myself saying, "kids these days..."
23OMG...you guys are CLUELESS!!!!! Do you NOT know anything about THE RUNAWAYS?!?!?!? JOAN JETT was a ROCKER....A FEMALE ROCKER!!!! Do you history homework before you come on here talking crap that you have no idea about! I might beold and a baby of the 70's growing up in the 80's, but at least I know who the FIRST FEMALE ROCKER was!!! and for Dakota.....she is so sweet, I could never see her as Cherie Currie...but I will give it a shot??? Who is playing Lita Ford...anyone know???? Check this out youngins before you bash her hair....http://www.therunaways.com/
24Agreed, Vivivonpurr on yout post. Dakota seems an odd choice, BUT the look similarities are there. Still, it's gonna be odd seeing her in some of the getups Cherrie wore, very stripper like. Almost Pussy Cat Doll like but with more of a punk edge. I still find Dakota unattractive though.
Only other casting they have on IMDB is Stella Maeve as Sandy West.
25I agree VIVI! These youngins dont know anything about the RUNAWAYS, and yes i am 35! LOL I still think Kate Moneing (Shane from the Lword) was born to play Joan Jett! Yeah who is going to play Lita Ford, she is a hard rocker fo sho! This will be a real stretch for Dakota to be playing Cherie Currie, maybe she is wearing all of those tall high heel shoes to pre pare for the role! Cherie did wear some major heels at her live shows!
26Are we going to have photos of them going to work EVERYDAY?
27kristen looks ever more nasty now!! i cannot stand her.!
28how many rehearsals are they going to have till they start filming
29They're both so young.... im confused... during the singers heydays weren't they older than 15?
30Doy! I could have read the post right? sorry and thanks ilanac13!
31my my Dakota looks much older than 15 years old!
32i love dakota's outfit!... i dont like the shoes though
33I like Dakota's shoes.
But I agree, it is very high.
