Kristen Stewart has already gotten the black mullet to play rocker Joan Jett in the upcoming movie, “The Runaways”, but she has revealed that it’s intimidating for her to play the iconic rocker.

Kristen said: ‘I’m just listening to her music all the time. I’m trying to just make myself aware of the time period and what she was going through. It’s one of the most immense responsibilities to play a real person. Her story’s important. It’s an incredibly triumphant feminist story really. She’s the first woman to ever start her own record label. So many people know her as just being like one of the coolest people to ever live. That in itself is one of the most intimidating things that I’ve ever had to confront but she’s so cool too.’

Joan has given Kristen her blessing in the biopic, saying, “When her hair is cut and with the right makeup, Kristen should make a really good me.”
