Dakota Fanning is in talks to join Twilight star Kristen Stewart in rock 'n' roll biopic Runaways. The 15 year old is slated to play Runaways singer Cheri Currie in the film, in which Stewart will play guitarist Joan Jett.

Ironically, Currie became a music star at 15 as the Runaways lead singer.

And it might not be the only time Fanning and Stewart will be working together this year - the teenage star is also in talks to play a vampire leader in the Twilight sequel New Moon.

Meanwhile, Jett, who is a consultant on Runaways, recently cooed about the casting of Stewart as herself, stating, "When her hair is cut and with the right make-up, Kristen should make a really good me... She has the passion for it, which you can't really be taught."
