The movie shares the story of an all-girl teenage punk band that found fame in the 70s. It chronicles their rise to stardom, in what was at the time, a male-dominated rock scene. The price of fame was high though, and it, ultimately, led to their demise.

Dakota Fanning stars as Cherie Currie, the bands lead singer. Kristin Stewart stars alongside her, in the role of Joan Jett.

The two actresses, both of which starred in the Twilight Saga, portray different roles then fans may be used to.

The film focuses on how the teens were led astray during their quick rise to stardom. They had slipped into a life of abuse, sex and drugs. Their manager took advantage of their vulnerabilities and cashed in on their sex appeal.

The descent into drugs and alcohol was a career ender for Curie. However, it became a story of obstacles to overcome for Jett. She eventually went on to a band known as The Blackhearts, and is still rocking out today.

Stewart and Fanning can be seen in their portrayals when the film reaches the box office in March.

The movie will focus around Pattionson’s character Georges Duroy who climbs the ladder of success by manipulating some of the most important women in Paris but what really has critics and gossips talking is the possible love scene that will take place between Robert Pattinson and Uma Thurman.

Sources are stating that there will be a number of hot love scenes between Pattinson and Thurman. Pattinson and his new leading lady are reportedly filming several different scenes of their characters in bed together. The scenes are reportedly much different than the innocent love scenes we are used to from Pattinson in the Twilight movies.

While many are excited over the prospect of seeing Pattinson act next to movie veteran Uma Thurman and see what sort of chemistry they have, one has to wonder how it will go over with those die-hard Twilight fans.

In an interview with Time Magazine she said that she warned Pattinson of starting a relationship with Stewart “After I cast him, I told Rob, don’t even think about having a romance with her . . . She’s under 18. You will be arrested,” and continued to say “In terms of what Kristen told me directly, it didn’t happen on the first movie. Nothing crossed the line while on the first film.”

She then made a statement that confirmed it all “I think it took a long time for Kristen to realize, O.K., I’ve got to give this a go and really try to be with this person.”

Stewart, now 19, and Pattinson, 23, were spotted holding hands in Paris on Tuesday and have both denied any relationship.

With just over a week until the premiere, Twilight fever is gearing up. As the cast is out promoting the upcoming release, fans are salivating for any morsel of information they can find on their beloved stars. The media, fortunately, has been happy to oblige.

The buzz on Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart is a bit more amplified than normal, helped in part by the newlywed style interview the pair gave just a week ago. The pair dished on themselves and each other, revealing who was more egotistical and athletic. The pair did quite well, showing just how closely they have worked during the filming and promotion of both Twilight films.

Beyond Pattinson and Stewart, breakout star Taylor Lautner has been a media darling as of late. The young actor has received much press for his impressive physical makeover. Lautner’s buff body has earned him praise and coverage and possibly even a girlfriend. Lautner has now been paired with country starlet Taylor Swift, who even included a reference to Lautner during her monologue on her recent “Saturday Night Live” appearance.

“Twilight Saga: New Moon” will premiere on November 20, a date that, for many Twilight fans, cannot come soon enough.

New Twilight New Moon Trailers And News

Even movie theaters are adding extra show times and some theaters offering a midnight showing of New Moon. For the past view months multiple clips, trailers and other sneak peaks about the film have been released increasing the buzz around this film.

The latest clip of the film to be released shows a behind the scene look at Edward, played by Robert Pattinson, fighting the infamous Volturi, a very powerful and controlling group pf vampires living in Italy. In this featurette, we are given and rare look into how this scene was filmed.

Robert Pattinson did much of his own stunt work and now we can see what film tricks were used to make this battle scene so realistic.

Also, MTV released a small clip of New Moon on Halloween night giving us even more of what to expect from this blockbuster film. In this clip, Bella, played by Kristen Stewart, is celebrating her birthday with Edward and the rest of his family, when suddenly as she is opening her birthday gifts, a piece of wrapping paper gives her a paper cut! The scene cuts to Edward’s brother, who is also a vampire, and we can see how his need for human blood is growing out of his control, to the point that Edward needs to protect Bella.

Although the first movie was primarily based on the love story between Edward and Bella, Chris Weitz, the director of the film, has stated that this film, New Moon, is geared for all audiences, even the guys too!

The cast members who play the powerful Volturi, each dressed in their vampire garb, speak a bit about their parts. “Jane is the secret weapon. She looks kind of innocent, but really her power is pretty evil,” explains Dakota Fanning of her character. Michael Sheen, Christopher Heyerdahl, and Jamie Campbell Bower who play Aro, Marcus, and Caius, the head of the Volturi, each give details about their roles. “They’re a very powerful group,” says Sheen.

Even Stephenie Meyer, the author of the Twilight series, chimes in, telling us a bit more about Volturi.

The featurette gives us a look into how Edward’s battle with the Volturi was filmed, including the stuntwork between Robert Pattinson, who plays Edward, and Daniel Cudmore, who plays Felix. In a previous clip we were shown Felix throwing Edward across the room and slamming his head into the ground. Now we see the film-making tricks used to accomplish this fight scene – actors flying across the room on wires and crashing onto mats, rather than the granite floors we see in the finished scene.

We also get a taste of how the Stunt Coordinator and Director interact to influence this sequel to Twilight. “It’s on much more of a grand scale than anything we did in Twilight,” observes Pattinson. “It looks cool.”

The Twilight Saga: New Moon hits theaters on November 20th.
