Twilight Cast Options

[Leosageheart]

Personally I don't see how they can portray such an awesome book into a movie. Should be interesting to see what they make of it. Book will always be better in my eyes.

Bella: Kristen Stewart
Edward: Robert Pattinson
Eric: Justin Chon
Jessica: Anna Kendrick
James: Cam Gigandet
Mike Newton: Michael Welch
Jasper: Jackson Rathbone
Rosalie: Nikki Reed
Esme: Elizabeth Reaser
Alice: Ashley Greene
Carlisle: Peter Facinelli
Victoria: Rachel Lefevre

Bella -



Edward -



Eric -



Jessica -



James -



Mike -



Jasper -



Rosalie -



Esme -



Alice -



Carlisle -



Victoria -




Discuss; This is only the cast I have heard about so far. If you have more news please post.

[JokeInsideJoke]

esme is to old.

[monstrum]

They're all externally unequipped to be the Twilight cast. Except for Carlise's actor : ). Yay!

[angelrevelation]

I have the most disapproval for Rosalie's character. I'm not too happy with some of the others, but they show some potential. The guy who plays Jasper looks a lot better here than in the promo.

And I do believe they've also cast Emmett and Jacob.

[Comptine]

I want Steven Strait for Jacob. Hell, I want Steven Strait, period.

The cast looks so different than what I pictured it as.

[hypnotique]

Cedric diggory all the way.

Though thats not what i pictured edward.

[omgomgKATHY]

James is TOO hot.

[Smarmosaur]

i could have sworn i posted in this thread...but anyways.
i'm still trying to figure out if Eric's been japanese all along.

[angelrevelation]

^ I haven't read Twilight in so long... Is he the one who crushes on Bella, or is that Mike?

[Smarmosaur]

^that's mike.
or does eric crush, too...?
i really don't know. i've read eclipse a dozen times but i haven't read twilight in a few months.

[omgomgKATHY]

they both like her..i think.
crap i haven't read twilight in a while.

[JokeInsideJoke]

James is TOO hot.

so is Jasper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[breakingdawn]

i could have sworn i posted in this thread...but anyways.
i'm still trying to figure out if Eric's been japanese all along.

He was always asian, they just never specified which kind.

^ I haven't read Twilight in so long... Is he the one who crushes on Bella, or is that Mike?

Mike and Tyler. Eric was always with Angela.

[missnh]

Ew, Edward's actor is disgustingly ugly. *sigh*

[superstitious]

I'm picking up Twilight this weekend if Target has it or I'm biting the bullet and getting it on Amazon.

I think the guy that plays Cedric looks good, but then again, haven't read the book so of course I'm not as critical of casting choices.

The hell is up with Eva from Grey's Anatomy doing in this movie though? She looks like an alien.

[tokyo-rose]

Justin Chon is Korean, not Japanese.

Cedric as Edward is sjdfsldsal.

[Smarmosaur]

I'm picking up Twilight this weekend if Target has it or I'm biting the bullet and getting it on Amazon.

you won't regret it. i suggest you get New Moon and Eclipse at the same time, 'cause you won't put Twilight down for a second until you're done with it, then you'll cry if you don't have the next one.

[JokeInsideJoke]

Cedric as Edward is sjdfsldsal.

maybe insted of us all thinking of him as Cedric we should think of him as robert or edward

[Jennifer]

I'm STILL crying over Gaspard. As soon as I'd seen a picture of him he was the perfect Edward throughout all three books so far. WHY CEDRIC DIGGORY?!

Anyway, I think they chose a pretty good Bella, and Alice as well. The perfect James, I must say. Is there any news on Jacob? I'm dying to know!

[Smarmosaur]

^ditto!
i was thinking of that last night.
but he's only young Jacob in Twilight, right?

[JokeInsideJoke]

^ yeah... then he gets all dog-ish

[Smarmosaur]

GD they're taking forever to find a Jacob. there was an open casting call a while back, so there's gotta be progress...

[JokeInsideJoke]

is ANYONE happy with robert playing edward?

[Smarmosaur]

NO.
although i've gotten a bit used to it.

[JokeInsideJoke]

.......... okay, back on topic, guys :)

who do you think will best play their role in the film?

[angelrevelation]

I'm not very familiar with any of the actors... But Robert Pattison did a good job as Cedric without having much acting experience at all, so hopefully he'll do Edward justice.

I think Eva Green should have been Victoria.

[Smarmosaur]

^ah-greed!

i think the best is going to be Kristen. :]]]]]
and i think Pattison is going to live up to the roll.

[JokeInsideJoke]

^ i aggree, to both robert and kristen

[JokeInsideJoke]

okay, everyone! lets keep this thread alive!

[Smarmosaur]

i'm totally starting to accept this now. i could get used to Pattison.

[JokeInsideJoke]

he WILL play a great edward!!!
i am SO looking forward to this movie!
do you know what date it will come out?

[Smarmosaur]

uhmm last time i saw anything it was set for around December 12.
I'M OOBER EXCITED THOUGH. i've gotten SO many people into the Twilight series, so there's like 15 of us all going in a group when it comes out.

[JokeInsideJoke]

COUNT ME IN!!!!!!!!!!! lmao

[JokeInsideJoke]

i dont know where to post this, because the last twilight thread is SO old :) so ill post it here




You know you're obsessed with the Twilight Series when:
1. you download every song from Stephanie Meyers playlist and listen to them non-stop on your iPod.
2. you dream about it every night.
3. you want to go to Forks for your spring break.
4. you squeal every time you see a silver Volvo, even if it's not your favorite car.
5. you cringe whenever you hear/see Edward's or Bella's name and it has nothing to do with Stephenie Meyer.
6. you've ceased to believe that vampires actually have fangs or any weakness. And you believe all vampires must be inherently hot.
7. you're counting down the minutes until Breaking Dawn comes out.
8. you quote lines from the books for use in your everyday speech.
9. you solidly believe your boyfriend is a vampire simply on the basis that he's sexy.
10. you refer to your ideal boyfriend as an "Edward."
11. you pre-order your copy of Breaking Dawn at Barnes & Noble.
12. you name your characters after the Twilight characters.
13. you cry because your father used New Moon as a coaster for his drink

35. you sit on the roof of your house every night waiting for Edward to come.
36. you name random people at your school the characters' names.
37. you wish for them not to make a Twilight movie because it could never be as good as the book but still want to see it.
38. you start failing in school because either your reading the Twilight Series. Or you are thinking about Edward and his family.
39. you make a protective cover for your twilight to ensure that you never leave your copy of Twilight when it goes with you to yours friend's house.

45. your cry at sad parts of the book... Even though you've read it 20 times.
If you agreed, laughed at, or even remotely understood at least 10 of these, you are obsessed with the Twilight series. XD


(i got this online... i cant remember the site :))

[monstrum]

This is so random, sorry : ) but I'm starting to like Pattison as Edward. Not because I find him attractive, but he really does kind of has that presence. Like in the movie shots, he really stands out.

[JokeInsideJoke]

i am SO happy with him. but at first i was like 'WTF?! why would they DO that?!'
i cant wait for december

^ does edward drive a volvo in the movie?!
he HAS to!

[Smarmosaur]

i don't think they're stupid enough to change that!

[JokeInsideJoke]

i would throw a fit if they did

THEY CHANGED THE CAR MODEL FOR THE MOVIE.
can you say PISSED?



oh btw, Taylor Lautner= Jacob.

[lostinLDN]

thanks! ^^
the only pain about it is updating it everybody because the movie's in production now XP
oh well.

[breakingdawn]

did you know they stopped producing those last summer? :[

no they didn't...

[Smarmosaur]

no they didn't...

uh, yeah, they did. volvo s60 r's aren't made anymore...they stopped production around august last year. >_<

[edit]
http://www.leftlanenews.com/volvo-to-drop-...70r-models.html

[breakingdawn]

the "r" isn't really significant to the model. It's just the sport package.

[Smarmosaur]

yes, but, stephenie specifies on her website that the r is IMPORTANT.

[JokeInsideJoke]

i melt every time i think about the movie.....

[superstitious]

Seriously, I wouldn't give much of a shit if Edward drove a Pinto. He looks hot as hell. XD

[angelrevelation]

I know, and I love how he's so stylish too

[Smarmosaur]

Seriously, I wouldn't give much of a shit if Edward drove a Pinto. He looks hot as hell. XD

but cars are a part of his personality! especially that damn volvo...they could have at least got something that looked fast.

[superstitious]

For sure! I'm just half cup fullin' it. XD

[Smarmosaur]

ahaha...you're obsessed now. love your siggy. :]

[Anephoria]

Jasper's pretty cute.


..if only he was eleven years younger, Shane West would have made Edward...but that's my opinion...

[superstitious]

ahaha...you're obsessed now. love your siggy. :]

haha. Thanks! Yeah, I was cruising through Livejournals last night. There's a couple of really good Twilight based communities that I thoroughly enjoyed reading through. On a side note, I'm starting to like LJ more and more. I definitely need to concentrate some efforts on my LJ and contributing to communities there more often.

Jasper's pretty cute.
..if only he was eleven years younger, Shane West would have made Edward...but that's my opinion...
http://z.about.com/d/tvdramas/1/0/W/4/shanewest.jpg

Jasper is definitely a cutie. Strange hair, but definitely good looking.

Goodness, I don't think Shane West is at all what I would imagine. Seriously, I really do think that Rob P is a fantastic choice in the role. I think some people might be caught up in him being "Cedric Diggory", which is entirely unfair. In fact, last night I was watching some interviews of his and he said that he hated that character, because that type is someone he would have hated in high school. Something like that.

Anyway, there's some clips on youtube showing him in roles that represented a more broody type. Very convincing stuff. And to me, he has a very unique beauty. He's a hot guy, for sure, but he's also pretty, which is something similar I think of when I think of Edward (which is far too much lately. ;)) XD

I was reading through some fan reactions, not just here, but in several places that talks about Gaspard Ulliel. Without doubt, he probably has the majority of fan votes for the role. I don't see it. I think he has a look that could fit, but there's a depth missing that I think Rob P has.

[Smarmosaur]

i've never really gotten the whole Gaspard Ulliel craze...i don't see how he could fit into Edward at all. but that's just me.
i'm pretty excited for Robert now that i've gotten over the shock. i can't waaaaiiiiit!

[lojay]

I don't think I will get over Robert Pattison until I see the movie. Even in photos that he seems decently attractive I still feel he is completely wrong for the role... but hopefully when I see how they make him up, my opinion will change. But that kind of bothers me because then I feel like the only way he can even come close to being Edward is after he is "made up" Sigh.

[Smarmosaur]

^i'm not afraid of the cast. i think they're all good actors in different ways. Kristen Stewart just happens to be the best. :]]]
but i'm afraid of how many things the...people...will change in the movie.

[Anephoria]

I personally think Gaspard would have been perfect (although I'm happy with Robert) because he has that whole French mystique thing, which could be translated into Edward's vampire sophisticatedness...

[superstitious]

And here I was, liking all the activity in the Books forum.

You're definitely not alone in that thinking. Personally, I'm thrilled with the cast as is (of course obviously, I'm biased).

I finished New Moon last night (yes, I read the entire thing last night) and JACOB IS CAST TOO YOUNG. The hell? How is that even going to work?! Is he a werewolf in real life? Will he get all muscular by the next film (assuming they make another, which they BETTER do)? I've started Eclipse and the whole time I'm thinking... uh... how will that work with that actor? Holy hell!

Are you in twilight_film? I'm in that one, but I don't care that much about the film anymore, actually. >_< I'm too wrapped up in the posts made in dbsg and yg_bigbang (Asian artists, heh). LJ communities are seriously addictive.

I think Gaspard looks a lot more like Edward than Robert ever could.

I'm in Lion&Lamb (lion_lamb), which is my favorite and twilight_film, which is also great. I think that people crosspost a bit, but with the overwhelming amount of icon posts lately (thanks to all the wonderful set pictures Amy Howe took), I could be confusing people.

I sympathize with you though, regarding Gaspard. I know once I set my mind on something, especially when it comes to particular person in a particular role, it's next to impossible to wrap my mind around someone different.

uh...duh, they'll cast another person /if/ they do New Moon. remember Jacob is younger than Bella and the crew. he goes from oober young looking for his age, to oober muscular and sexy. 'nuff said.

[superstitious]

I guess. It just creeps me out right now. I mean, he's the friggin kid from The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl for goodness sake. o_O lol

[JokeInsideJoke]

^ hehe :)

i dont like him, either... but maybe because i dont like his charicter

[angelrevelation]

I guess. It just creeps me out right now. I mean, he's the friggin kid from The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl for goodness sake. o_O lol

Well at the very beginning when Jacob's brought into the story he does seem really young and you'd never guess that him and Bella would end up in love... (<- does this have to be censored?) So at the moment, I think the actor fits.

[angelrevelation]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkRH_L4SSAw...feature=related

Ok it's not the official trailer, but it still made me squeal anyway, especially because of the voiceovers from who knows where

I suppose. That's rational thinking, but it still weirds me out, even with knowing that he changes fast. I'm thinking that there just isn't a lot of more recent pictures of him. I don't know. It was just a shock. lol

Oh and don't worry about censoring things like that. The books have been out for a while now. =)

Exclusive: First-Look Footage Reveals Jacob Black From 'Twilight'

The way he talks kind of annoys me, but maybe it'll grow on me... I hope.

[superstitious]

I've had a hard time adjusting but that's ONLY because I was in the middle of New Moon when I saw that he was cast. Then my reaction was worse after Eclipse. I thinking... Bella kisses this kid? She's in anguish over this kid? But, this kid IS the Jacob in Twilight (which I've read three times already, thank you very much lol).

I've re-read New Moon and Eclipse as well.

So yeah, Twilight, this kid is Jacob. Jacob's this kid with a cute crush on Bella. I can see him giggling, responding in his cute little voice when Bella does her wicked (albeit dorky) female flirting with him.

[JokeInsideJoke]

The way he talks kind of annoys me, but maybe it'll grow on me... I hope.

im pretty sure i will never think of him as more than the a-hole who stole some of bella's love away from edward......

but yeah, the way he talks annoys me too

OMFG!!!! it was too short!!! i want more.. but i must make do with what i have. oh, how i love robert

[clarity]

They've ruined my image of the characters.

Ugh, the cast is so horrible. When I first heard whats his face was playing Edward, I wanted to Cry... I was like WTF ewww no f**king way!

[Relentless]

I never read Twilight, and it seems a lot of people love the book. It seems interesting, so I guess I'll watch the movie when it comes out.

Robert Pattinson seems like a definite fit and look for a "vampire". Regardless of the physical/mental traits of Edward Cullen since I never read the book. xD

I have no idea why people always freak out when a book turns into a movie/show. There's nothing to expect most of the time because everyone knows in movies/shows that it's going to change somehow in a certain aspect... You can't always expect every single detail that is exactly like the book for the movie. It may be hard to find a certain person for a role due to the physical/mental appearance or somewhat for a character in a book.
