Now that the Twilight sequel ‘New Moon’ is on fast track development we are going to start seeing new cast members brought in to fill up new roles. Word got out today that Summit offered Dakota Fanning the role of Jane opposite Robert Patterson in the movie, and she didn’t even have to audition for it. Source reveals to E! “They just offered it to her outright, and now they’re in negotiations. They’ve been going back and forth.” The character Jane is a member of Italy’s Volturi, the most deadly group of vampires in the series Stephanie Myers has developed. 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.
So it is very possible that we will get to see Dakota Fanning sporting vampire Fangs. Apparently Fanning turns 15 years old next month if you can believe that. I guess fans of the book are all for Fanning to play Jane. A online petition was set up by a fan asking Summit Entertainment to cast her because she would be perfect for the role. I have not read the books so I wouldn’t know, but that of you that do know, what are your thoughts?
is Dakota Fanning old enough to show up in Twilight as a teenager? i thought she was like 12
Dakota Fanning would be perfect for playing the part jane in fact when i read the book and looked on the internet there a picture of dakota in a red hooded shirt it was the perfect picture to help me put together what jane really looked like…
Happy Birthday to me and Dakota Fanning I turn 18 on monday and she turns 15 thats pretty cool
do
Dakota Fanning may be a little to young. I hope they do alot of work to make her look older. I hope Dakota gets right into the vampire mood. If she doesnt… it could all go downhill. And I heard Vanessa Hudgens auditioned to play the girl were-wolf? HEELLL NO! we dont want this movie going to Disney here
I completly a gree with not want vanessa hudges to play Leah Clearwater, i wouldn't be able to take her seriously. i think the character of Leah should be played by a new actress that we've never really seen before.
