All Things Fangirl has found what may be a huge bit of news while on a recent trip to the theater. Allie Grant, who is best known for her role in the TV series Weeds, is listed "be seen opposite Michael Shannon in the upcoming Marvel Studios film Runaways" in her biography.

Runaways focuses on six young friends who discover that their parents are all secretly super-powered villains. Together, they run away from home and straight into the adventure of their lives - vowing to turn the tables on their evil legacy.

Various other sites point out that the theater may have mixed up the Marvel comic book of the same name with the Joan Jett biopic The Runaways which star's Michael Shannon. However, Grant isn't listed as being in the cast for the Joan Jett film, so there may be a chance that a Runaways movie is in the beginning stages of production!
