As a follow up to yesterdays poster, Apparition released another new promo poster for the upcoming film “The Runaways” starring Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning. Both Kristen and Dakota also star in the upcoming Twilight sequel “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” co-starring Robert Pattinson (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix) and Taylor Lautner.

Synopsis: The Runaways (Neon Angels) is based on lead-singer Cherie Currie’s book ‘Neon Angel’ – a reflection of her experiences as a rock star, but also delivering a strong anti-drug warning to teens and others. David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” serves as a metaphor for the narrative– a slow countdown, a surreal but spectacular rise to fame, then alienation and burnout – a long long way from home.
The movie chronicles THE RUNAWAYS from 1975 – 1977; formed by teenage girls living near Hollywood, CA., and heavily manipulated by their manager Kim Fowley as ‘jailbait rock’ (all the girls were 16 or younger when the band recorded their first album). The band ultimately succeeds on their own merits as musicians, becoming the first all-girl rock-band to ever break into the world of arena-filling hard rock acts.

I would like to buy that poster. I hope they print it for sale!
Nice poster, and I’m glad it’s out there. I just wish someone would have “done their homework” before selecting the guitar for “Joan” to be holding. That Gibson E/2 didn’t exist until 1980, after the Runaways demise. The correct guitar for that time would’ve been a natural finish Gibson Les Paul Deluxe. (& later, a Gibson Melody Maker.) Most people won’t know or care. But I’m just glad the Runaways story will be told.
