Holy Crap Dakota Fanning Has Grown Up!

By John - July 2, 2009 - 15:23 America/Montreal

Good freaking grief. I had to do a serious double take when I first saw this picture. It’s a shot of Kristen Stewart & Dakota Fanning in their new upcoming movie The Runaways.

The biopic of the 70’s all girl rock band “The Runaways” is ramping up to production and appears to have rounded out its cast. The band was comprised to some legendary names in the rock industry such as:

Lita Ford (to be played by Scout Taylor-Compton from Rob Zombie’s Halloween movies)

Joan Jett (To be played by Twilight’s Kristen Stewart)

Cherie Currie (To be played by Dakota Fanning)

Sandy West (To be played by Stella Maeve)

The Runaways as a band had a successful but short run from 1975 to about 1979 and has such hit songs as “Cherry Bomb,” “Queens of Noise,” “Neon Angels (On the Road to Ruin)” and “Born to Be Bad.” The Runaways movie is currently scheduled for a 2010 release.

    it’s called make-up, john.

    • Rodney says:

      They have makeup that makes a girl look 5′10?

      Dakota surprised me too. I think I was too used to her seeing as 8 years old and seemingly overnight she became 14.

    • dax says:

      Dakota is 5′2. She is wearing big platform boots to make her look taller.
      And yes she still is super young looking, they are aging her with that makeup and hair.

    • cloud7_20 says:

      That 5′2 has to be out dated. Without heals she at least has to be as tall as Kristen.

  2. cloud7_20 says:

    If anyone is wondering imdb has Kristen Stewart’s height listed at 5′ 6″ (1.68 m)

  3. AARON says:

    Yeah I think it’s the make up. Either she’s really tall or Kristen is really short

  4. kevin [ jonathancranehiscameo] says:

    She looks good.

  5. ultra-magnus says:

    wow kirsten stewart as joan jett……interesting pick

  6. Dragonslayer says:

    Holy hell you’re right. I only remember her as the kid that screamed a lot in War of the Worlds. She looks cute too.

  7. DON says:

    4 years ago she was a little screaming baby in war of the worlds.

    Now she is a fully grown up woman. Did she take pills?

  8. Kaneda979 says:

    LOL, wow, that’s just crazy. She still looked so young in the movie Push that came out this past February, now look at her? Between this and Push is seems like time just flew by. That’s just amazing, but maybe it is all make up.

  9. Lilly says:

    I guess none of you caught Dakota in the flick Push that, I guess, when straight to DVD set in Hong Kong. We were totally floored when we realised it was here in such a grown up role. She will be one star to watch on her meteoric rise in the next decade, for sure. Now that she’s not as annoying, that is. :-)

  10. Kristina says:

    She creeped me out when she was younger. Like a fifty year old in a kid’s body.

  11. Justin says:

    *In the Wall-E voice* WOAH!

  12. Justin says:

    Kristen Stewart? I don’t see her anywhere in these pictures….I don’t see her boobs either….

  13. suzy says:

    lol, Dakota totally took a spill in her platforms. I would too!

    and aww, they’re cute together :)

  14. Sandy says:

    While being a very cute and attractive girl, i dont think Kristen Stewart has ever been know for her “amazing boobs”. ANy time i have seen her it seems as if she is rather small chested. (No insult intended, just an observation…)

  15. Henrik says:

    Diddnt War of the Worlds come out like 3 years ago? She looked like she was 7 in that one.

  16. Geno says:

    I don’t know in some of the pictures she does look a bit older but in some she looks young like her face has yet to age to match her body. Stewart does look hot in those black leather pants I will give you that.

  17. iknewthiswouldhappen says:

    All that money and fame and she still can’t get her teeth fixed? or is it just the lighting?

  18. paul says:
