Dakota really wants to be Jane

According to ET online Dakota Fanning really wants to be in New Moon!

"Does Dakota Fanning want to co-star with Robert Pattinson and company in the 'Twilight' sequel? Dakota herself dishes to ET!


Dakota tells ET that although contracts haven't been signed, she does hope to join the cast of 'New Moon.' She tells us she's a big fan of the movie 'Twilight' and would really like to play a vampire, namely the sadistic bloodsucker Jane."



How exciting! So it seems that we have our Jane.

People.com pick there Alec's

People.com have just started a poll on who should be cast as Alec in new moon. The four options they have are Tom Felton, Lucas Grabeel, Gaspard Ulliel and Freddie Highmore.

According to Stephine Meyer Alec looks like this :"his hair was darker, and his lips were not as full, but he was just as lovely," And I dont think that really fits anyone is People's poll, but the person I picked was Freddie Highmore. Hes not exactly what I imagined Alec to look like but I think he is the closest on the poll. Tom Felton will always be Draco Malfoy to me but I think he could pull it off if he really tried. Lucas Grabeel is too disney and Gaspard Ulliel is just too old!


What do you think?

Whos Alec?!

Now that there has been almost definite speculation over who will play Jane in New Moon it leads to the next character in line, Alec! Entertainment weekly have just written an article about who could play Alec and decide who they think is the best actor to play Jane's twin.

Elijah Wood is a popular suggestion, since Jane and Alec are small in stature, but I doubt that the man who starred in the Lord of the Rings trilogy would want to be backburner in a Twilight sequel. Then again, if Weitz (or the director of any future Twilight sequels) wanted to go off-book and flesh out the fascinating Volturi and their guard with Meyer's approval, I don't think anyone would mind. (Right?) Also, what is Elijah Wood doing these days?

Assuming Wood is out, I submit High School Musical's Lucas Grabeel (pictured) for consideration. He might be a bit too tall to pair with Fanning, but they could always have him stand/walk in a shallow hole/trench.

You can read the full article here.
I think that Elijah Wood would be a good Alec but I dont think that Lucas Grabeel would be. I think its the whole Disney feel he has (the same problem with Vanessa) But I still think that Jeremy Sumpter would be a good choice. What do you think?

I was right?!?

Guess who's a psychic/genius. ME! Do you remember way back *insert mist* on the 10th when I made some speculations on the actors to play certain parts? Well I did (You can have a look here) But one of my ideas was for the character Jane to be played by Dakota Fanning. And guess what E! online has just reported... That Dakota Fanning has been offered the role! When weeping in honour of being in my 'presence' please dont stain my outfit. ;)

E! Online says this:

I can exclusively report that the 14-year-old child star—she turns 15 on Feb. 23—is in talks to play Jane opposite Robert Pattinson & Co. in New Moon, the upcoming sequel to box office megahit Twilight.

“There were no auditions,” a source reveals. “They just offered it to her outright, and now they’re in negotiations. They’ve been going back and forth.”

Jane is a member of Italy’s Volturi, the most deadly group of bloodsucking killers in author Stephenie Meyer’s best-selling series.

In the casting notice we got our hands on earlier this month, Jane is described as a petite blonde with a “Botticelli angel-like face…[and] crimson irises.” While fellow Volturi guards Demetri & Felix “are three times the size of her, they are terrified of her,” the casting notice reads.


You can read the full article here. I would be quite happy if she was cast as Jane, and not just becasue I guessed it, but becasue I think she is almost perfect for the role! What do you think?

Variety addresses the rumors

Variety magazine has just realised an article which addresses all the rumours that are making circulating about the New Moon and Eclipse movies:
"Don't believe everything you hear about Twilight and its sequels. Things are heating up already on the third installment, Eclipse. They haven't even started the second one yet, New Moon. When you've got a robust franchise, filmmakers are eager to get on board. Word is, the Spanish director of The Orphanage, Juan Antonio Bayona, and 3:10 to Yuma helmer James Mangold are both circling the project, but Summit insists that no meetings are scheduled as yet. Both would be strong choices.

As to the last two unfilled roles in New Moon, vampires Jane and Aro, no offers have yet gone out, despite what you may have read. And the role of Leah Clearwater isn't being filled, because according to writer Melissa Rosenberg, she isn't in the script!"

My character speculations for New Moon

Here are my character speculations for New Moon. We have our Edward, Bella, Cullen family, Victoria, Laurent, Charlie, Billy and Jacob (:D) but who will play the roles of the volturi?

Aro - There has been a lot of speculation that Ben Barnes (from prince Caspian) is lined up to play the role, which I'm fine with but I always thought of the volturi as much older looking... I think its more to do with them being called 'ancients'. But i also had another idea for Aro Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy in Harry Potter) I think he would be great as Aro! Hes older but not to old( Aro was born 1000 BC but there is no confirmed 'turn' date). But what do you think?



Jane - There has been no real speculation for this part so I'm assuming Summit are going to pick a unknown actor for the role. But I think if they were to pick a know actor the best choice would be Dakota Fanning. Jane's age has never been confirmed but people believe that is around 12 but I feel that she must be a bit older becasue she cant be classed as a 'immortal child' so I thought 13 or 14 that way shes a teen, not child. And I think Dakota Fanning would be perfect to play this role becasue it seems as though she hasn't changed for years and she still looks quite young (despite being 14) which I think will make her a great Jane. But what do you think?

Alec - Again there has been no speculation for this part so it must be a unknown actor role. But I think if they were to cast a somewhat known actor in the role Jeremy Sumpter would be a good choice. He, just like Dakota Fanning, has seemed to sort of grow up slowly which is perfect for the role. Jeremy is actually 19 years old, but I think he could play the early teen Alec role perfectly! And hes has training with fantasy sort of roles with Peter Pan! But what do you think?


If you have your own opinions tell me please! I'm really interested to know what everyone else thinks.
