Scott Eastwood is the latest to join Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman in Clint Eastwood's upcoming drama ("The Human Factor") about the life of former South African President Nelson Mandela.

Morgan Freeman is on board to play Mandela, while Damon will jump into the role of rugby player Francois Pienaar, who teamed up with Mandela to travel around the country after the fall of apartheid.

The film also gives in insight into Mandela’s life during his first term as president, when he backed South Africa’s Springboks team at the 1995 Rugby World Cup.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Eastwood is set to play a member of Pienaar's team. Anthony Peckham wrote the screenplay based on a book by John Carlin.

Scott Eastwood's acting credits include "Pride." He also appeared in his father's films "Flags of Our Fathers" and "Gran Torino."

Dakota Fanning is ready to turn into a rocker... on the big screen, of course.

The 15-year-old actress is in talks to join Kristen Stewart in "The Runaways," the biopic of the popular girl rock band. According to Variety, Fanning would play singer Cheri Currie.

The plot will focus on the formation of The Runaways all the way to the end of their career as a group. The all-girl band came together in 1975, producing famous songs such as "Cherry Bomb" and "Queens of Noise."

Stewart is on board to play Joan Jett, who later formed the Blackhearts and returned back to fame with "I Love Rock N' Roll."

Floria Sigismondi wrote the screenplay and will direct the feature, which is scheduled to head into production sometime this year.

Fanning most recently starred in "Push" and did voice-over work for "Coraline." She has also been rumored to star in "New Moon," which recently started shooting.

"Twilight" star Kristen Stewart is all set to rock 'n' roll as Joan Jett in "The Runaways," a big-screen biopic of the popular girl rock band.

Stewart is currently onscreen in the adaptation of Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight." The actress already committed to shooting the sequels to that film, but the trade says "The Runaways" will not interfere with that schedule.
