Joan Jett

Cherry Bomb is going to explode, and I don't mean in a good way

Music post by Ashley Brittner on June 11, 2009 - 10:32pm; tagged Alessandra Torresani, Cherie Currie, Cherry Bomb, Dakota Fanning, Joan Jett, Kristen Stewart, Lita Ford, The Runaways.

So, Hollywood is finally making a movie about The Runaways. Shit yes, right? Well, no, actually, because cast as Joan Jett is Kristen Stewart, who played Bella in some tiny production-or-other, Twilight. To make matters worse, Cherie Currie will be played by...wait for it...Dakota Fanning. Um. Okay. This week, it was announced that Alessandra Torresani (who?) has signed on as Lita Ford. And all I can think is, these must be some lost little girls (pun intended) because Torresani had to literally research the band to become familiar with them. Am I just being cynical, expecting that this project will not do The Runaways their deserved justice? Or can today's hottest teen stars actually pull it off? More after the jump!
