The_Runaways_movie_image_Kristen_Stewart_and_cast.jpg

With The Runaways set to be released on March 19, we've landed 6 new high resolution images from the film.  Since we've been covering the film extensively the last few months, I'd like to think most of you know what it's about.  But for the three people just joining the party:

The Runaways follows two friends, Joan Jett (Kristen Stewart) and Cherie Currie (Dakota Fanning), as they rise from rebellious Southern California kids to rock stars of the now legendary group that paved the way for future generations of girl bands. They fall under the Svengali-like influence of rock impresario Kim Fowley (Michael Shannon), who turns the group into an outrageous success and a family of misfits. With its tough-chick image and raw talent, the band quickly earns a name for itself-and so do its two leads: Joan is the band's pure rock' n' roll heart, while Cherie, with her Bowie-Bardot looks, is the sex kitten.

Hit the jump to check out the new images.  And if you missed our previous coverage...here's 8 high resolution images, here's my review from Sundance, and here's my interview with Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning:

Apparition will open THE RUNAWAYS in over 1400 theaters on March 19. The music-fueled story of the ground-breaking, all girl, teenage rock band of the 1970s stars Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning, Danielle Riley Keough, Scout Taylor-Compton (TV's "Arrested Development"), and Michael Shannon. The film marks the first theatrical collaboration between Apparition and River Road Entertainment.  Executive Produced by Joan Jett and Produced by River Road and Linson Entertainment.
