Kristen Stewart is going to have a lead role as a Marine for the film “An American Girl.” Looks like she will be busy after Breaking Dawn. 

According to the director, the story follows a recent high-school graduate who, after getting involved in booze and drugs, finds herself at the center of a scandal in her hometown. She joins the Marines to escape.

The director said about the movie: "The ironic thing is that along the way she starts learning these values she doesn't expect...It's not like she's a gung-ho Marine."

He also added that the role is "a slam-dunk Oscar for" Kristen.

Can you imagine Kristen with a shaved head? Wow! The movie starts filming in 2011.
