But neither can deny the attraction that pulls them together…even when Edward confides that he and his family are vampires. The action-packed, modern day vampire love story TWILIGHT, the first film in the series, was released in theatres on November 21, 2008 to a blockbuster reception. The second instalment of the film franchise, THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON was released November 20, 2000 and the third instalment, THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE was released June 30, 2010.

    woah so much BD news, im happy but also sad that these final actors are beginning to be chosen. happy october!
    i think these are good actors for the parts! I dont remember exactly what each of them did, especially Eleazar cuz i always get distracted reading about him and how his name is one of the only names other then my own with most of those letters lol (my name is Eleanor :) .

    ahh i hate these rumours that are flying around!!

  • Curtiecue

    NOOOOO THEY MUST HAVE HIS POINT OF VIEW!!! :,( i HATE MR

  • Curtiecue

    Um holy crap people i got 11 emails with comments. and then a whole other convo spun off of it?!? this is insanity. I agree with everyones opinions btw

  • Curtiecue

    truee. but i think tanyas face it pretty good, i just think she is toooo sharp looking and thats more like kate

  • Jacqueline

    My sister NEVER saw twilight,she just saw it and it blew her mind.

  • newborneyes

    I think she hadn´t use her powwer at all I don´t understand she is the writer no matter how much they pay her she is the only one who know the thing I can believe she even talk to MR I would have tell them long time
    “if you don´t fire her I take you off the rights of my books ”
    maybe it can be done but still I would have told them

  • newborneyes

    yes hair and color can be fixed they would look great with wigs and makeup but tanya no I think it should be the other girl not because of the hair but because of her face this girl who is to be tanya doesn´t look how I imagined her in the book but anyway we hope they do a good job with hair and makeup but I don´t like her face bone structure (not sure if that´s how you call it)

  • Anonymous

    I know they have to have that part it is important to the story and that is how SM worte it already sh!t is starting to spread(rumors that is) so hopefully this is just a rumor I HATE that when that happens *_* so I doubt it is true and besides they cant leave anything out this is the last vampire movie! so I am not believing it that is just some stoopid rumor someone has spread on her website so it is false NO WAY would they leave anything out they cant do that!!!!

  • MovieNightWithBella

    That Tanya is ugly as hell in my opinion. That girl shouldn’t even be in the movie. As anyone. No switching roles, or anything. Because she’s ugly. And vampires are gorgeous. I’m done:)

  • nicky march

    Yeah…I know what you mean. Just at first glance….if they didnt have the names on the pix above….I would have guessed Tanya and Kate would be switched. But like you said, the original Twilight actors dont look the same…some not at all…in real life. I’m sure they will make them look appropriate…..hopefully step it up a notch with the wigs and hair….especially Jasper and Alice. In Eclipse Jaspers hair was longer and limp and Alices hair was so flat…I miss her spiky hair.

  • vampire princess

    DAMN! they are so pretty but i’ve gottta say that this isn’t how i pictured eleazar & carmen. carmen is amazingly beautiful but eleazar is a bit of wierd to me i don’t know i guess i pictured him more like emmet

  • vampire princess

    i feel kinda bad for the actress thats gonna portray tanya though cuz alot of people will be a bitchy towards her cuz after all she doesn’t really seemed resigned at least thats according to bella….. that is what she says right?

  • EluvsRob

    I totally agree, we will not get all the Jacob pov, but I am hoping they tell some of it. Like the Quil and Claire scene and the drive to the park, we can only hope. I doubt we will get much of the Jacob/Leah/Seth scenes outside of the Cullen house. I think if it doesn’t have to do with Bella and Edward we won’t see much of Jakes pov. Which is ok, you will still be able to follow it for those who haven’t read the books, they won’t know what they are missing. But we all know that they can’t put everything in the movies. Though I think everyone who is obsessed as I am would totally sit through a 5 hr movie as long as we have our Edward and Jacob! Am I right? Hales yes! =)

  • EluvsRob

    Umm was she living under a rock or on a different planet? Hahaha it’s ok we forgive her =)

  • EluvsRob

    Eleazar can tell what vampires have which powers, Kate can send electric currents from her body. The rest don’t have powers.

  • EluvsRob

    I hope they don’t try to do a tv show. That would not be a good idea, to take such a succesful franchise and change it just to make more money. Besides there are already good shows on tv with vampires, The Vampire Diaries, True Blood, I just don’t think they could beat those.

    Yes disqust IS dead. Stupid thing keeps tagging you as fricken spam!

    *rolls eyes*

  • Ropen2spin

    i think that the new vamps are very beautiful, and from the way they described how Bella transformed into a stunning MADE to be a Vamp, they will have to really step up their game with Kristins makeup and hair this go round!!

  • Anonymous

    well that simply means that we”ll get to see more of pregnancy and cullens rather than wolfs………..which i completely prefer…….

    New note from Bill Condon; Hello fans!

    Has it really been five months (and a day) since my last dispatch? In my defense, they’ve been five months spent immersed in the world of TWILIGHT – something I’m sure you can all appreciate. We’re in the thick of pre-production now, juggling everything from casting to storyboarding to location scouting, getting it all ready to go, but I do want to take a moment to announce to you exclusively a few of the amazing production team members who are hard at work alongside me, bringing these movies to life. I hope you’ll be as excited about them as I am:

    Guillermo Navarro, who won an Academy Award for the beautiful PAN’S LABYRINTH, is our cinematographer. Guillermo and I have been painstakingly planning each shot, with a team of very talented storyboard artists.

    Michael Wilkinson, our costume designer, is bringing his brilliant vision to the styles of all your favorite characters. Michael’s created fantastic looks for 300, WATCHMEN, and the upcoming TRON: LEGACY – just wait ’til you see his take on the vampire witnesses who come to Forks from around the globe.

    Jean Black, our makeup designer, has worked extensively with the Coen Brothers and David Fincher, most recently making exquisite, award-winning contributions to THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON. I’m honored to be working with her.

    Richard Sherman, with whom I made GODS AND MONSTERS and KINSEY, is on-board as our production designer. Richard’s one of my oldest collaborators and a terrific designer, and you may be interested to know that he also happens to be a lifelong vampire aficionado.

    Our Oscar-winning visual effects supervisor John Bruno has been responsible for some of the most memorable special effects ever, with his groundbreaking work on display in everything from POLTERGEIST to AVATAR. He and his team are working intensely to develop solutions to the host of special effects challenges that Stephenie created for us in BREAKING DAWN, including that remarkable kid…

    Wonderful, imaginative people all and very exciting, intense times for us. Even with the months of work we’ve already put in, we’re barely underway on the journey, and I do hope to get back to you much sooner next time with more news. Until then, thanks for your warm reception and continued support!

    Very best regards,

    Bil

    I know, it’s amazing how fans all over the world meet here on this site. And we discover we have more in common than just Twilight. Another favorite soap I loved from Brazil was “O Clone”. Giovanna Antonelli is another beautiful actress ;)

    This is so cool :)

  • dimitra

    i think that Myanna Buring(tanya) and Casey LaBow (Kate)are good.i dont like the other two, Eleazarand and Carmen

  • BBAttack_RobsTheRealThing

    That’s not how I pictured Tanya at all. The girl playing Kate looks more like Tanya should. But on a positive note, the Breaking Dawn wheels are set in motion..yay! Bring on Nov 2011!!!

    Hey I am sorry but usally this site has info up and running first thing, So please don’t holler at me anymore I am Sorry didn’t mean to upset anyone- I have read it too now and if you have read my posts before you know that I follow alot of stuff in relation to what’s happening with the Saga I missed this one, I have stuck up for BC before and this is really awesome news, but I was just surprised that it was posted the way it was and with some unfans you never know.

  • SoffeS

    Woah, what an incredible team! Looking good for Breaking Dawn.

  • Vi.*TeamE&B* MidnightSun♥

    I hope that too. I can’t believe I’m going to say this but this is what I think. I think this Tanya is “ugly”, at least in this picture I mean, look at her! The actress that has been cast to play Kate is way more beautiful!

    And I think the one that should be most beautiful vampire of this coven or something should be Tanya, right? (correct me guys if I’m wrong :s) but I remember when Bella describes Tanya when she’s about to say “hello” to her, in the wedding.

    But the actor/actress that I like the most is Carmen :) OMG I think she’s absolutely perfect! Like I said before, I’m already picturing her holding Renesmee and saying “caraaamba!”. This is so exciting :D

  • Vi.*TeamE&B* MidnightSun♥

    IMO we don’t have to worry about Jacob’s POV *hides* (jacob fans, don’t get mad at me, okay?)
    Okay, Breaking Dawn is mainly about Bella’s POV but yes I care about Jacob’s POV, not 100%, but I do care anyway, because after all his point of view can let us “see” what’s going on “outside” bella’s head and bella’s situation at least for once.

    Most important now is whether his point of view is going to be in the movie or not. And I think it will be! By the way, this is not about being Team Edward or Jacob. Of course there won’t be one whole movie just for Jacob, but his point of view will be there! (indirectly)

    They can’t just show anything and then make Jacob appear in the Cullen’s house and say “I’m the Alpha and Clearwaters are with me”. The audience (for those who haven’t read the books) will be like “whaaaat??!” You know what I mean? The “camera” will show a little bit of everything that it’s happening aside Bella. Of course there will be mostly Bella, but the Jacob and all the werewolves will be there (more in the 2nd than in the first one). So I think we don’t need to be so worried and we’re counting on Stephenie anyway! ! ;-)

    I ated that Jake’s POV part, I wished she never wrote it. I wanted to see the reactions from the Cullens.

  • http://twitter.com/MimiUpendo Chantal Meijer

    Me too, I hated Jacob’s POV, stupid drama queen.

  • http://twitter.com/MimiUpendo Chantal Meijer

    I don’t like that Tanya. She just doesn’t seem right. I imagined someone else =/. I don’t like that Kate either but I love Carmen and Elezear.

  • bella ♥ vita

    EXACTLY! They REALLY got them mixed up! Tanya is the one who is supposed to have strawberry blonde hair not Kate! Kate is supposed to a brunette, but aside from hair color the girl cast as Tanya is much more like I imaged Kate especially with that little smirk! Seriously the actress playing Kate is exactly what I imagined Tanya to look like!

  • FreezeBurn~TwilightGirlForever

    I CAN’T WAIT to see each of the vampire “clicks”…and who they cast for them.

    Egyptian, Amazon, Romanian, OH MY!

  • erin

    wow they look like they will do a great job.

  • MissN.Gravety.Magnet.Satellite

    Hi sweetie. No worries, sorry.. i totally forgot to write the source.. but yes, this is on the official summit facebook and their own webiste.. so it is ofc official! Should have said that in the beginning though!:)

    BUT YES! It is suuuuch good new… and look at the team! WHOAH! Summit really puts their energy on the best in this one! But I have to say.. John Bruno was the one who got me the most excited!

  • kit_LuvRobstenHatePapz

    yes, i do agree with you… i imagined tanya to have a softer face with flowing auburn curls… but then again, she should be beautiful, but not look like edward’s type…

  • Anonymous

    Thanks I looked at the site but it came up my golden eyes. I don’t think this is the correct site but it gave me the into about the going ons of everything. I usually try to stick to one unless you get there from here simple because my daughter told me some of her friends got virus’s going to different internet sites. But, I have been spending way to much time here my obssession is getting worse I dreament about Edward last night and I am just to old to have those kind of fantasies thank god it was RP and not TL my mind is just to young but the body tells me something else anyway- I am sorry it is very exciting to follow all the info coming in and I am trying very hard to stay away from the books until next jan/ feb, and keeping busy with my volunteer work for my foster animals. by the way who is John Bruno. I know I read it but I have forgotten.

  • tpec1991

    guys! I just saw today the movie “Let me in” it reminded me so much of twilight but creepier, idk, hahahah they had also the conversation of “how old are you??” “I’m 12″ “how long have you been 12??” and the girl is also telling the boy that the shouldn’t be friends, and if he would still like her if she was something else!! hahahaha anyway, the movie is really good btw!! and its a litttle bit scary…
