So, they're saying that
Cam Gigandet is gonna play either Carlisle/Jasper/Emmet
I think he may be Carlisle, and he is way more hot than Edward xD
^ I've got it from a LJ without source (ontd_twilight), so i dont know if it's real or not.
And about the Eric casting...i kind of like the like, and I love Angela's choice!

who plays angela?
and isn't james supposed to be evil looking? i was sort of imagining cillian murphy as james. cam is much too nice looking. he'd make a perfect Carlisle.
aww well. :/

I think Robert Pattison is a great choice for Edward.
Anyone who has seen clips of his acting in the TV series 'The Haunted Airman' will know what I mean!

I don't exactly understand why everyone is unhappy with the selection of the actors. I'm pretty sure there was some valid reason why the casting directors picked them. As for me, I'm holding my judgement until I actually see them as Edward and Bella.
And to be quite frank, I normally tend to have an open mind and accept anyone who is casted (despite my own personal preferences). I did do the same thing with Harry Potter and it works so far.
I agree with your 110%.
Robert Pattinson - there's something quite mysterious about him. I mean, he already looks like a vampire! lols...
if you just look at his pictures or his acting clips, he's got Edward written all over him

Kristen Stewart - she's a wonderful actress. she's been in so many indie and big name movies,
i have no doubts in my mind that she'll do well as Bella.
they're both perfect for the role. i cant imagine anybody else for the roles as EdwardxBella.

BIG BIG BIG BIG NEWS!!!!!!!!!
http://twilightmomsforums.freeforums.org/v...opic.php?t=1647I'm VERY, VERY disappointed with the casting of Rosalie and Carlisle. Dammit, I hear Nikki Reed was casted as Rosalie because of connection to the director

!!!!!!! Carlisle, I dunno because he's supposed to be in his early 20's and really HOT? This isn't confirmed news yet because it hasn't been in Twilight Lexicon or SM's site (although Carlisle's casting is)
I like rest of the women though. Alice is very beautiful

and if she chopped her locks, it would be perfect.
DAMMIT Catherine Hardwicke you're killing our story! SM says if her novel was to be made into a movie, the key point was for them to stay authentic but she's pissing me off!

Wow, these castings. I'll live with it, but I'm unhappy. Don't get me wrong, Greene is pretty but really not pixielike. I can't see Reaser as Esme! I'll always picture her as Rebecca/Ava in Grey's Anatomy. And no for Rosalie. Just no! But can't wait to see her blonde.
Victoria is spot on, thought. : )

You are not the only one. When I first read the book, that's who I thought of too. The description fits him to a T.

the cast is coming together! woohoo... which means, filming... which means another day closer to the release. =D
sweet_hunny
Feb 12 2008, 06:44 PM
UH JaeJoong? No way Jose! I'm sorry but Edward is not for him in fact (I don't hate him but doesn't work!), I think Edward is too blurry to picture (although for me it's Gaspard Ulliel or Tom Sturridge) because you can't image a person that perfect.
Anyways I'm still pissed about the Rosalie casting with Nikki. I heard she's part native so why couldn't they make her Emily

? That would've been a LOT more appealing in terms of physical appearance

!
My ideal Rosalie is also blurred because she's a beautiful woman and from Bella's view, it was either Rosalie or Edward that was the most gorgeous and Nikki's more "HOT" than beautiful. I mean if Ashley Greene is Alice, then Rosalie's was supposed to be beyond that beauty.
Well there's a person who posted this on IMDb about a model named Valentina Zeliaeva (see her Ralph Lauren ads), she's the closest to an ideal Rosalie I've had ever seen!!!!!! She has a symmetrical, angelic-like face that screamed "Rosalie!"
Valentina:

Anyways the actress for Esme is alright and I accept her but she's not my ideal either.
OH GOOD GOD! I'm already freaking over Emmett, Jasper, Charlie and Jake! THey better not screw that up either. Oh Catherine! WHY DID YOU DO THIS???

As long as Nikki Reed dyes her hair blonde, I'll be fine with her!

All I'm waiting for now is the announcements for Jake and Jasper!!

Feb 12 2008, 07:14 PM
Well, seeing as it was just announced, a bit of complaining is alright since it changes a lot of views for people. At least, that's what I'm sticking by.
I'm still unhappy with Nikki. Even seeing those pictures of her in blonde still doesn't do it for me... she needs to be "prettier". A blonde Olivia Wilde is my ideal Rosalie.

Okay, I've decided I will believe some of the castings that I'm doubtful of as soon as Summit ent. and Stephenie's site announces the news (although it'll probably be true

)
I just don't get it! Stephenie said that when she met Catherine Hardwicke, she had one condition for the movie to be as close to her story but it's just if Catherine really did understand, the cast wouldn't turn out like this. Good God I feel like a selfish pinkberry but in all honesty, fans may have more insight too who the characters should be although they may know more about actors but the essential key was their looks and it seems like they are making the movie
LOOSELY BASED ON and won't stick to the novel.
I'll try to be open minded but I cannot make guarentees

Feb 12 2008, 09:25 PM
The pictures that they posted of the cast are not flattering at all.
My friend sent me the same pictures and I didn't really like them much.
But, I searched around and they're all actually really pretty.
ELIZABETH REASER - Esme


ASHLEY GREENE - Alice


NIKKI REED - Rosalie


RACHEL LEFEVRE - Victoria

PETER FACINELLI - Carlisle


and I'll throw in Robert Pattinson :]



Some people need to really chill though.
These people are already casted and your complaining won't change the cast.
Give them a chance at least.
The movie hasn't even started being filmed yet and people are already predicting that it'll suck because of the cast.

Personally, I'm still unhappy with the casting of Robert as Edward
But I got over it b/c I knew they would do things that I wouldn't agree with
It was inevitable :[

Feb 12 2008, 11:24 PM
Pardon my unladylike language, but I so want in Robert Pattinson's pants

lol He's so handsome!
Anyways, I just saw the casting picks on ONTD and I agree with like half of the choices. Esme, Carlisle, Victoria for shizzles. Funny thing is I was just watching Bones today and I saw the girl who's going to play Victoria, and I knew she looked extremely familiar so I IMDB'd her and SHE WAS ON BIG WOLF ON CAMPUS! Who totally remembers that? Or is it just me? LOL Anyways, she is extremely pretty and I absolutely love her red hair and pale complexion. It's amazing.
As for who's playing Alice and Rosalie...yeah, I don't know. The girl playing Alice looks pretty good, but at some level, I think I'll always have Rachel Leigh Cook as my ideal Alice lol. and Rosalie? Sorry, even if she was to dye her hair white blonde, I don't think she'll pull off Rosalie's character. Cause isn't Rosalie suppose to be strikingly beautiful, goddess like? I could be wrong, but if I'm not, then yea, Nikki Reed doesn't hold a candle to what Rosalie is suppose to look like (according to the book descriptions lol) And to hear (although not yet confirmed) that she was chosen to be Rosalie cause of her connection with the director or whomever, doesn't really give her that much credit either. Thumbs down on that picking. I know it's wrong of me to judge her before the movie even comes out, and I really should give her the benefit of the doubt, but right now, thats really hard to do. Maybe once I see the movie, I'll retract my comment lol
Now bring on the boys!

Emmett and Jasper I'm sure will be awesome. And I'm really excited to see who's going to play Jacob!

Maybe I have "low standards" compared to some, but I think the girl who's chosen to play Rosalie is pretty! Just dye her hair/eyebrows(Also, some good acting ability. Nothing less flattering in a movie than an actress who can't act.
