Breaking Dawn Casting
Wendell Pierce Listed As J. Jenks In ‘Breaking Dawn Part 1′ On IMDb Website!
When Summit Entertainment announced more supporting cast in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, actor Wendell Pierce was one of them. However, his role in the last two Breaking Dawn films was not listed. We all suspected Wendell would be playing the Cullen’s attorney J. Jenks (in an interview, Wendell would not say who is playing, but that he was NOT a vampire nor a werewolf. LOL!). Well, IMDb has listed Wendell Pierce as J. Jenks in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 confirming it!
J Jenks is an unscrupulous lawyer who also deals in illegal documents. He provides the Cullen family with forged birth certificates, drivers licenses and passports etc to enable them to live their immortal lives. Although he doesn’t know they are vampires he is aware of their longevity. He has a cautious relationship with the never changing Jasper, who negotiates with fear. He is described as overweight and sweating profusely, obviously nervous of any encounters with the Cullen family; although with Bella he has a growing fondness preferring to make future transactions with her. She visits him to arrange papers for Jacob and Renesmee to escape the Volturi in Breaking Dawn
Now here is what’s interesting, Wendell is not listed in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2. Bella goes to J. Jenks when she is a vampire, right? So, will we see vampire Bella in Breaking Dawn Part 1? Maybe he’s just not listed YET in Breaking Dawn Part 2…..but what would J. Jenks be doing in Part 1? Attending the wedding?
What are your thoughts?
I just want to say…… I KNEW HE WOULD PLAY J. JENKS! WOO HOO!

Also, if you look at the IMDb website, Stephenie Meyer is listed as a wedding guest.
And who is Toshiro?
Wendell Pierce Talks ‘Breaking Dawn’
We previously posted Wendell Pierce as one of the supporting cast announced by Summit, but it wasn’t announced what character he was going to play. Wendell (I think he’s J. Jenks) talked a little bit about his role in Breaking Dawn with NYmag.com.
You’re in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn later this year. What draws you to teen heartthrob vampire movies?
I never thought I’d get to the point where I’d be one of those actors who says, “I did this for my kids,” but I really did. I have some teenage nieces and a nephew, and they never get to see anything I do. “Yeah, you did The Wire, and I see you in Treme”; and, “Yeah, you guys won the Peabody, that’s nice and that’s cool.” When they found out I was in Twilight, oh my God. “Uncle Wendell’s in Twilight!”What’s your role?
I am actually a human. I’m not a werewolf; I’m not a vampire. I’m a human.
I think that confirms it for me!! He’s J. Jenks, the Cullens’ attorney!!

Breaking Dawn Casting News: JD Pardo Is `Nahuel`, Confirmed By Summit
We previously reported that actor JD Pardo was rumored to play Nahuel in Breaking Dawn.
Summit Entertainment has confirmed (via Twilight Lexicon) that JD is indeed playing the part of Nahuel!
Nahuel is a human/vampire hybrid from Chile, who was raised by his Aunt, Huilen, after his mother died giving birth to him. He was brought to forks by Alice and Jasper to help their cause re: Renesmee and the Volturi.
What do you think? Good choice? Or bad choice? Let us know in the comments section!

Breaking Dawn Casting News: Christie Burke Rumored To Play Teenage Renesmee

TwiCraddict Addict has some information on the teenage Renesmee will be played by Christie Burke!
Christie – aka second luckiest gal in the world (first place still goes to Kristen, natch) – appears to get to make out with Taylor Lautner in a flash-forward to Jacob and Renesmee living happily ever after…
Whether this is a Bella flash forward or when Jacob first imprints on her (as previous rumored Lainey script deets detailed a Jacob/Renesemee montage) will remain to be seen.
According to her representation, Performers Management in Vancouver Christie is 5’7, has hazel eyes, brown hair (though her pic totes look more auburn) and weighs 115lbs (plenty light enough for Jacob to spin her around in throws of adoration, etc).
Super squishy thanks to my secret source for this info!
- Lorabell
However, Summit has not confirmed this information.
From NessieMackenzie
The casting of Christie Burke has NOT yet been confirmed by Summit. We will be sure to keep you updated when we hear otherwise!
What do you all think? I like her! However, I always had a feeling that Janelle Frohleich was the teenage Renesmee. Summit never confirmed Janelle’s role. Just a thought. I do think Christie will be great too.

Breaking Dawn Cast Rumor: JD Pardo As Nahuel?
Actor JD Pardo listed on his IMDb resume that he is starring as Nahuel in Breaking Dawn Part 2. However, JD is not listed on the Breaking Dawn Part 2 IMDb page, BUT apparently the resume page is handled by the actor’s representative. There is no confirmation from Summit either.
Here is Nahuel description from Twilight Wiki:
Nahuel is described as an extremely handsome young Latin man with rich dark brown skin, eyes the color of warm teak, and extremely attractive features. He wears his black hair in a braid past his shoulders.
We previously posted other potential actors to play Nahuel and also thought maybe Amadou Ly when he was announced as a supporting cast, but he’s listed as Henry (uncredited) on the BD Part 2 IMBd page. Who is Henry by the way?
Is JD easy on the eyes or what?? NICE! I like him!
[Source: IMBd Thanks Eyes of the Bolder for sending this! Awesome!]

Breaking Dawn Casting News: Eliza Faria Cast As ‘Little Renesmee’?
The IMDB.com page for Breaking Dawn Part 1 shows that Eliza Faria has been cast as Little Renesmee -
Here is more information on Eliza (via SiftingRealities.com) -
Five year old, Eliza Faria, began her acting career when she landed her first role in a Lysol Disinfectant commercial at the age of two. Her subsequent TV commercial work includes Cisco The Human Network and Hasbro Scatterpillar. She appeared as a featured background actor in an episode of Smallville and as a victim of a cougar attack in a television documentary, Animal Planet. Eliza began working in student and independent films in 2009 and has completed nine projects and two music videos. For the past six months she has been working weekly with Clint Mayers of First Call Casting, learning acting, directing and editing. She is an active member of Vancouver All Star competitive cheerleading
Interesting! We are not exactly sure what they’ll be using her for as Mackenzie Foy is officially cast as Renesmee. We are thinking she must be the “body” they are using, and then Mackenzie’s head as CGI?
UPDATE: Rumor has it that there will be several Little Renesmee’s, however Eliza is the only one listed thus far.
Let us know what you think about this in our comments section!
[Thanks, SureSure4RobSTEN!]
