While Robert Pattinson was falling head over heels for Zac-y Pooh, his girlfriend was keeping it strictly business with her hot young co-star.

Kristen Stewart says she had to be very hands-off with her The Runaways co-star Dakota Fanning.

It's hard to believe that Dakota Fanning is only sixteen, since it seems like she's been in her thirties since she was five, but this week was her big sweet sixteen birthday bash.

We don't know what she did, but judging by this picture, it looks like she had a wild time.

We're not used to Fanning in a tiara and ripped stockings. She's usually very put together. But it's nice to see that she's actually acting like a teenager for once.

What's the most talked about movie at this year's Sundance? For sure, it is the Joan Jett biopic, The Runaways, starring Kristin Stewart, sans vampires.

Who's ready for some new New Moon photos?  Everyone, obviously! While these photos released today from the studio are noticably lacking in some departments (well, I guess R. Pattz is in the background of one of them), you have to admit they are pretty cool. Who knew Dakota Fanning would look so badass as a vampire?  Don't try to adjust your monitor.  For once having red eye in a photo is definitely a good thing!

Cute!

Dakota Fanning (in the upcoming New Moon), 15, and Freddie Highmore (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), 17, were spotted leaving Italian restaurant Il Cielo in Beverly Hills together after enjoing a little dinner date.

We approve whole-heartedly. Freddie seems like a right British gentleman and Dakota is blossoming into quite the stunner.

Frost/Nixon star and Kate Beckinsale’s baby daddy, Michael Sheen, has joined the cast of New Moon.

Director Chris Weitz has revealed the Oscar-nominee will play Aro, the leader of the Volturi, an Italian vampire clan that will also include Dakota Fanning

They are pulling some serious caliber actors for the Twilight sequel. 

That gives us hope for the film's quality, given its tight schedule and insanely fast turnaround time.

The 20-year-old, who will play Caius, has said he begins filming his role in June. He joins Fanning and Canadian model Noot Seear as Twilight newbies.

Get ready to be hella rich and crazy famous, Jamie.

Suck on this!

She will play Jane, an evil vampire with an angelic exterior who works for the Volturi, an Italian vampire family.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
