Finally we're at the day of the "The Runaways" theatrical release (though it still in only limited theaters)! Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning recently sat down and told MTV News how they felt about the various looks they had to portray in the biopic about Joan Jett and Cherie Curie.
Dakota said she had a lot of fun portraying Cherie's three distinct looks, but Cherie's silver look (and major silver eye shadow!) was her favorite. "The silver one was very important, because that's like the 'Cherry Bomb' look. So it was cool to be able to experiment with that and actually be able to do makeup that you can look at in a photograph and actually look like that when you're done," she said.
She added, "I really liked the silver one because it almost looked like metal [on my eyes] and it was hard, kind of. It was really cool. And then I also like in the hospital scene when it's like flaked off, it looks like it's chipped. It's just really cool, I really liked that."
Kristen agreed, saying that this was one of the most fun roles she's had a chance to play. "I think the last two of the most recent roles I've had have been the most fun characters to play because they've been so different from myself," she said."
She particularly noted the difference that her haircut made to her owning the character of Joan Jett.
"Once I cut my hair, it was like, 'That's a Joan Jett haircut.' It wasn't anything besides that," Kristen said.
As to how far they would go for a role in the future, Dakota said she didn't think she could made a decision until she was presented with one to make.
"I don't think you know until it comes up," she said. "I think if you feel really strongly about something, you'll do anything for it. Or maybe you won't, you know what I mean? It just depends on what the situation is."
