"Costume designer Carol Beadle on Fanning's outfit: "Shirt Synthetic print long sleeve shirt with rouched hem which was super popular in early to mid 70's. These jeans were one of the better that I found. Can't remember where I got them, Palace Costumes or possibly "Siobhan" on Beverly Blvd. in LA. Wide leg flare with silver pin striping. I think she has Cherie's "Bowie" belt on here, and a briliant pair of black suede platforms." Source: www.fandango.com

What did you think about Kristen Stewart playing you? -Joan Jett: You know, I asked Kristen if she was going to cut her hair, and she said yes. So I had great faith that she was going to pull this off, because she seemed very dedicated. We had a few weeks together before filming started, and she picked my brain. Working with the actors, the whole process was brutal, but in general, working with the actors was great. They were brilliant. -Cherie Currie said that she had no idea you were so upset when she left the band until she read the foreword you wrote for her book. You never communicated that to her? Joan Jett: I really have nothing I got to say about it. I said what I had to say in the foreword. -How does the movie match up with the story of what else really happened?
Joan Jett: I think it's great. It is a movie, and so there are aspects of it that might be embellished and such, timeline shifts, but most of the things happened to us. The movie, beyond being a really interesting story in and of itself about all-girl band trying to break down barriers and such, it's a real story, it really happened, and I think the movie touches on a lot of other issues that teenagers go through. Communication with family and friends. Exploring your sexuality. It's complicated and there are no easy answers, and we're not giving you any answers. We're just telling you what happened to us. -What do you think about the bands that followed in the wake of the Runaways, that were female-centric, female-controlled?
Joan Jett: Certainly people have drawn parallels to the riot grrrl movement, but beyond girls playing instruments, I don't know that you can say that it's the exact same experience, really. I think we were doing something a little bit different. I think to some degree, we shared some of the goals of that movement, but I wasn't a part of that, I didn't start that, so I don't know, but I think they had a wider goal than just inspiring girls to pick up a guitar".

Joan Jett & Kristen Stewart on the set of "The Runaways". "As Joan Jett -- co-founder of the germinal all-female band the Runaways and quintessential rock-and-roll survivor -- Stewart all but banishes Bella's lip-biting angst and self-abnegation. With her hair razored into a glam-rock shag, hunched into a black leather jacket and playing guitar with a defiant snarl of a prizefighter, Stewart's Jett may speak softly (or hardly at all), but she carries a big ax. She's the somber, tomboy counterpart to lead singer Cherie Currie, played by Dakota Fanning, who the band's skeevy producer describes as "a little Bowie, a little Bardot."
Even though the original band included three other players, Jett and Currie dominate "The Runaways", which in its schematic structure resembles "VH1's Behind the Music" reduced to haiku. But the film possesses an undeniable, punk-rock brio, and it sneakily captures the audacity the band came to represent. And, it turns out, Jett's cipher-like presence in "The Runaways" is well suited to Stewart's own diffident, wary style and mix of masculine-feminine cues. Jett's perseverance, survival instincts and sheer chops seem all the more refreshing for being portrayed by an actress best known for a character who sees surrendering her humanity as the most supreme form of self-expression.Even with its rote structure and lurid flameouts, "The Runaways" presents a cheering, even inspiring portrait of female friendship; its final scene may be the best in the movie, offering a healing note of acceptance and solidarity. What's more, it presents a heroine who, faced with a choice between immortality and self-preservation, dares to insist on both. It might just make all those "Twilight" fans wish that Bella had Joan Jett around to help her get her groove back. Source: www.washingtonpost.com

Twilight star Kristen Stewart is getting ready to celebrate her 20th birthday and rumor has it that there is a huge bash in the works. K-stew has been incredibly busy over the past few months, or actually the past few years, promoting all of her various film projects, and most recently revving things up for the release of Eclipse.
One of the newest projects KS is spending time on is a role she hopes to land in "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo." She's reportedly been auditioning in Hollywood for the movie.

But she'll be taking a little time off from her busy schedule to celebrate her official move out of teenager-dom and into adulthood. Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson in a still from "Eclipse".
We don't know if her bf Robert Pattinson will be able to make it, as he's also busy at work on Bel Ami in Hungary. But wouldn't it be the best birthday gift ever if he swept in to surprise her?
Happy 20th birthday Kristen Stewart!

Q: Your attachment to the property obviously compelled you to not simply rehash the story of the game. What changed and what stayed the same when doing the movie version?
Jordan Mechner: The idea of a dagger that could turn back time was of course at the heart of both the game and the movie. That started as a gameplay idea. We thought it would be cool for the player to save himself and turn back time rather than having to die and restart from a checkpoint. The story the Sands of Time and the Dagger of Time was the story I made to justify that gameplay idea. Of course with the movie, it begins with that story. Jordan Mechner: I was just out of college and home for the summer. With my love of movies and my Apple II, I had my brother, who was in high school at the time, run, jump and do all the movies on the high school parking lot. That became the basis for the animation. To go from that to Jake (Gyllenhaal) doing all the stunt work trained by the best stunt people in the world, it's quite a journey. Source: www.examiner.com
Quint: I have to start off by saying that I loved BROTHERS. I think that was a criminally overlooked movie. You, Natalie [Portman] and Tobey [Maguire] knocked that out of the park. Jake Gyllenhaal: Thank you very much. Quint: I was very shocked that it got ignored during the awards season. Jake Gyllenhaal: Really? Quint: Yeah. Jake Gyllenhaal: You know, I think those things take on lives of their own, it’s like sometimes things catch and sometimes things don’t, but it doesn’t make it any more or less of a movie, I guess. I’m really proud of that movie as a marker of sort of a new beginning in understanding of acting for me, so thank you. That means a lot. Quint: On the panel, you called back to a childhood love of INDIANA JONES and those kinds of movies, so I guess if you could elaborate a little bit on that.Jake Gyllenhaal: Yeah, it was that. To me the fun thing about it is… I think it is incredibly entertaining, it’s huge and it’s for everyone. (laughs) I had great fun making the movie. I think it does show in there and yeah, that’s what it is. You did most of the talking yourself, so you just… Roland Emmerich and Jake Gyllenhaal on the set of The Day After Tomorrow (2004) - Eye of the Storm
Quint: And you have worked with people like Roland Emmerich before who are also skilled at these kinds of giant disastersploitation, just these super fun movies, but I’ve noticed through a lot of studio pictures, you just end up with this kind of homogenized “fun,” so it’s very safe fun, but what I really kind of connected with on the PRINCE OF PERSIA stuff that, to be completely honest, I didn’t know if it was going to be there until I saw the footage was that it just didn’t seem to have that “Directed by studio mentality” feel. I don’t know if that makes any sense…Jake Gyllenhaal: Yeah, to me I feel like what was really nice about working with Disney, and also working with Jerry, was that Mike [Newell] and I… You never had this feeling of “No, you can’t do… NO!” and you were constantly trying things out. When we were on second unit, I would literally just try something out and I would say probably three quarters of the time it was not successful, but it’s unique because you can take those risks you know? Quint: Yeah and something that you mentioned earlier, which I’d like to touch on is you said that BROTHERS was kind of a check point for you where you started looking at the craft differently. I know PRINCE OF PERSIA is obviously a radically different movie, it’s a very big movie and there are probably much broader strokes, I would imagine, but did you find stuff that you learned there, you were able to carry over with you? Quint: Well if I’ve got one more question, I have to talk about Duncan. Jake Gyllenhaal: Yes. Quint: So, how far along are you in the movie? Jake Gyllenhaal: We are almost done. Quint: Really? Are you shooting in London? Jake Gyllenhaal: No, we are shooting in Montreal. We are shooting the coolest shit right now, man. I can’t even tell you. Quint: I’ve got to bug him “Hey, the studio might not want it, but I want to come up!”Jake Gyllenhaal: I’m telling you man, he is really quite something. His mind… He comes from quite a pedigree, just artistically, but on his own I believe he is the next generation. He is blowing my mind on a daily basis. Quint: What’s interesting with him is he is kind of like the quiet Quentin Tarantino, where it’s like he has such amazing film knowledge. Like when I went to MOON he was wearing the most badass CLOCKWORK ORANGE t-shirt I’ve ever seen. I’m like, “Wow, I know I like you already.”Jake Gyllenhaal: He has collector’s edition t-shirts on like every day and people come up and they are like “Dude, where’d you get that shirt?” I’m “It’s just a shirt, I have no idea.” [Laughs] Duncan Jones poses with the Orange Birtish Academy Film award for Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer for the film Moon, on February 21, 2010 in London
Jake Gyllenhaal: To me, working with him… It’s surprising, his instinct, his sense of collaboration, but at the same time truly being an auteur… I don’t know man, it’s nice, because I feel like I’ve talked to a lot of journalists who have really responded to his movie and know that and I knew that when I saw it and I think people… Everyone I’ve been like “Have you seen MOON?” They’re always like “Everyone says it’s so good, I need to see it.” He’s the real deal man. Anyone who has seen it knows that and this… you are really going to like it! Source: www.aintitcool.com

Jake Gyllenhal and Gemma Arterton in Disney Movie Surfers: 'Prince of Persia' Featurette (#1)
"In a recent Wondercon interview with actor Jake Gyllenhaal, it was revealed that he enjoyed playing Metroid as a kid and thought "Zelda was dope".I've never played a huge amount of Prince of Persia but what I have played I really enjoyed. I can easily see why a scriptwriter would find the character and the world of Prince of Persia so attractive, especially when the Prince encounters his other self later on down the track in The Warrior Within. It could make for some great story-telling.The fact is we've seen a string of game-to-movie adaptations that had gamers wondering "WTF?!" many times over. Why should Prince of Persia be any different? It remains to be seen just how well Jake will pull it off and to be fair, it isn't entirely up to him. Good ol' Lara Croft (and Angelina Jolie who played her in the movie) seems to be the only winner in our list. When the Tomb Raider movies were made and Angelina Jolie was cast as Lara Croft, it seemed that someone had finally managed to get something right (well, very right in fact - to this day, the first Tomb Raider movie has grossed more than any other game-to-movie adaptation to date at 300 million world wide).
So with the odds seemingly stacked against the Prince of Persia movie, is there little wonder that we have very little faith the movie will actually do well? If Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft can't even keep the negative reviews at bay in a movie that did quite well commercially, how could Jake Gyllenhaal possibly pull it off? Source: www.gameculture.com
