Movie Update
Posted by pelirroja - 26/09/07 at 01:09 pmAccording to Stephenie’s website the director of Twilight recently visited Forks to scout locations for the film. There were articles written about the visit in the Forks Forum and the Peninsula Daily News.
The movie and Stephenie also appear on the Internet Movie Database. Those with the professional version of the site can see a bit more including a rumor that Emily Browning is up for the part of Bella. Keep in mind just a rumor, there are many instances of these rumors not being founded. A recent example would be that Ralph Fines and Eowan MCGreggor were to have played Sirius Black and Remus Lupin in the Prisoner of Azkaban. Info on the IMDB on any film, especially a film in the development stage, is highly subject to change.
We have no supporting evidence yet that there is a casting notice out yet from Summit Films, but we have heard rumor. We are trying to get details and we will report facts as soon as we have them. We don’t want to feed the rumor mill here. As soon as we have what we consider accurate, reliable information on casting and filming we will post it.
I just went through and either edited or deleted a whole bunch of comments. There is an entire forum for casting lists and discussions on the message boards. Please use it instead of this page.

i thought that we cant discuss about the cast here…
ok someone help/. i couldnt find the forum for this so im posting it on here, if someone could answer then great thanks. ok so
they posted even MORE new stuff on stephenies page
if they use a undiscovered person 2 play bella it has a descripition but heres my question
does she HAVE to be 17 yrs old?!
i hope not =[
u think if they had open autions they would let a 15 yr old try out ?
To help!: that questions’s answered briefly in the Bella Swan casting discussion in Hollywood Hideout.
thank you samantha but i still couldnt find it on there. all i found was a bella swan casting thread and that was for pro actresses
hm whats the link for the casting thread? so excited
HOLY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2010!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Just found out that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows(movie) is also coming out on the SAME Year as Twilight…………..HOLY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This got to be good.*crossing fingers*
there is this one kid who went to our school named Aaron johnson. i am serios sammy !!!
AH, I NEEED INFORMATION THE SECOND YOU GET IT ON THE AUDITIONS! I’m so going to try out for Bella.
2010 is so far!
Hyperventalation! YAY!! 2010!! YAY!! can’t wait but that’s a LONG way away, sigh I’m gonna have to wait
Please, please, please discuss casting in the Hollywood Hideout page on the message boards. Alphie and Seraphyn already have a hard enough time keeping this place running; commenting in the wrong place only makes their jobs worse.
You so get brownie points for this.
Stephanie out of curiosity for the audition if they have one, how old are u?
Ridda:
I REALLY want Gerard Way to do Edward. when i read the book I always pictured Gerard as Edward. (Maybe because I have the BIGGEST crush on him!) Mikey Way would do great too, maybe even Frank. Sorry having a fan girl moment. If you look on the website they have a sound track thing, and it has one of my most favorite My Chemical Romance songs on it. (totally gonna buy it!)
XOXO
Ridda
GERARD!
i totally agree with the Gerard thing :p
i just had a really big fangirl moment then *SQUEEEEEE*
ahh, if only i was a few years older, id audition for Bella. the problem is that im 13 :s
i could pass as a 15 year old, but thats pushing it
im turning 15 in april and if they have open auditions i reallly hope they would let me try out =/ i actually look pretty mature for my age
Wow… a Twilight Movie. I’m just happy that there’s finally some progress regarding the movie!!! As for the whole casting hysteria, I say just be happy there is a movie to begin with. Get the script over and done with and THEN bombard us with the good news about casting. All in good time, right?
yes please…. anything about open casting please post…. i love these book!!! =]]
:LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: that one is too!! hmm…
dang it!! why doesn’t this one work any more??
now it does!!!
there are sooooooo many fun faces!!!!!!
this was sooooo random! but thats what i am!
Megan if you can read my message..please send me the link to the Hollywood Hideout page i don’t want to give Alphie and Seraphyn a hard time as well.
thnx very much
dnt worry about it megan i found it already…
wooooooooooooaw!
when it is released 2010 in usa…when will is be in germany??? Crap, crap, crap!!
can’t wait!
omg i cannot whiat but i herd it was coming out october 31 of 2007
well let me just say i was not a fan of reading i hated it but then i heard about a book called twilight ,it has to be good because it made my non-reader cuzin to read soooooooooooooooooooo i so i got the book not evan 30 min of her telling me .and here i am today reading twilight and never putting the book down and not leting anybody tuch it woooooow so i relly have to thank the dream that made this book possible ………………. THANKS
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A movie!!!!!!!! GASP!!!!!!!!!
Like a few other fans, I as well pictured Gerard Way as Edward. I don’t know why!? I tried to make him fit the books description but somehow Edward would turn into Gerard! I dunno…..maybe its just an obsession………But you know what would be good for the soundtrack of the movie. “Vampires will never hurt you” by My Chemical Romance. It AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I definitely hope that they find unknowns to play both Edward and Bella.
&& if they have open auditions I’m going. No matter what. And not just by some crazy whim. I’ve been locally acting in plays and in independent films for a while now. I don’t have an agent, but how AMAZING would it be to be BELLA? (:
My life would be complete. (:
Anyway, so I really hope these auditions are OPEN…
I’m glad this site gives such great updates. I check so often. hahaha (:
rylie i agree -open casting for someone new, because every other actress has her name known, wich would make it kind of wierd.
*WOOT WOOT*
i cannot BELIEVE they are gonna do a movie…the whole time i was reading the book i was thinking about how it would look as a movie…man, people are brave to try it!!
BUT i am NOT excited i have to wait so flippin’ long! 2010 is when i GRADUATE. how weird…
i hope they dont wreck it like Harry Potter :s
id love to play Alice, i always pictured her looking like me :p
whoever gets to play Bella will be one of the luckiest girls alive, and i know so many people who would love to be her
hmmm. . .
OMG!!!!! I cant wait to see the movie but why 2010!!!!! I think it woulb be better for 2009 dont you think?
I think the Alice that SM has on her website would be the perfect Alice I always pictures her exacly like that!!!
Gerard Way for Edward? hmmm…… That could be possible!!
As for my Jacob Black ( kisses ) I think that one guy from Sky High would be awesome!!!! to bad he would be too old to play Jacob ( kisses ) in New Moon. HEY WAIT A MINUTE ISNT JACOB SUPPOSES TO LOOK OLDER THAN HE REALLY IS!?!?!?!? THAN IT JUST MIGHT BE POSSIBLE!!!!
Anyways………… I LOVE YOU JACOB BLACK ( YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY HOT DOG ) :*) kIsSeS TO YOU JB !!!
omg i loved twilight it is one of my favorite books im just hoping they get the characters right and they look like they’re supposed to!
before i even went on stephanie meyer’s website i was thinking that emily browning from the series of unfortunate events movie should play bella! she is perfect!!!!!!
her alice choice is great too but i think her james choice is too much like i pictured jasper…
i hope they listen to her suggestions when casting the movie i dont want a great book turned bad movie to come out of this just because of the casting
OK – so I rolled my eyes when my friend told me about these books! Vampires – Warewolfs??? But I took her challenge to read at least the first 2 or 3 chapters – and holy crap!!!!! I read all three in 4 days! Every spare minute I could find I was reading. My children think that I have lost my mind. These books totaly suck you in and it was like watching an ongoing movie in my head!!!!! I have mixed feelings about a movie. I would love it, yet hate to see the books ruined. You know I could see Edward being played by the young man who plays Superman in the series Smallville, and to me, the only choice for Charley is Sam Elliott. Esme needs to be someone so very graceful and eliquant like Jane Seymour (not her though, she is too up in years) I love who you have for Alice. Bella should be someone who has so much natural beauty. Needs very little fuss to create beauty. I can’t seem to shake these dang books out of my head!
I just read what I wrote and when I said I read all 3, it means all three books!
Oh, one more thing – there is a playlist of songs for the books inpiration. Well, I just found some great songs that totally remind me of the book! Here they are- Ocean size love; by Leigh Nash – The Little Things; by Colbie Caillat- Almost Lover; by A Fine Frenzy- Magic and Bubbly both by Colbie Caillat. I heard these and they totaly remind me of different situations in the books!
For those of you who said they needed to use a new undiscovered talent. You found her! not to seem snobby or or to brag but ever since i’ve first read twilight I’ve thought that I should be Bella. My friends read the book and now they call me bella just because I look so much like she was described. Also call it crazy but alot of the weird things that happened to Bella happened to me too! right down to choosing to transfer schools then regretting it and driving away with my best friend on his motorcycle as my chaperoane tried to chase after us. I even read the same books listen to little music and I’m in all my honors classes. the weirdest thing though is I was the last one to make the conection my friends started calling me Bella and it took me a whole week to figure out why but what can I say I love it. I’m a loner by nature but something like a new school really can change who you are. Especially with the help of a great friend or two.
P.S. It would have been way cooler if I had met an Edward Cullen or Jacob Black when I transfered!
I just wanted to add a few things.
Dennis Quad will be the perfect Charlie!!! i so imagine him looking exacly like him!!!!
Now that i think about it I dont think anyone can be the Edward Cullen that i always pictured………I need to look up more pictures!!!!
As for Bella…………..wow!! I have no idea!! I sort of imagined her looking like that one girl from Kyle XY.
heres a picture

Hey we all have our own opinions!!!!
I’ve just finished reading this series for the 4th time!!!! I’m obsessed!!!!
I STILL LOVE YOU JACOB BLACK!!!!!! kIsSiSeS TO YOU JB!!!
For Edward Cullen I think i would like Gerard Way or Tom Sturridge!!
For Bella i also like Emily Browning
For Jacob Steven Strait
For Esme……….I really think that……….. STEPHENIE MEYER SHOULD PLAY HER!!!! THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!
WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU JACOB BLACK!!!! ( WHOES AFRAID OF THE BIG BAD WOLF!!!) KiSsEs TO YOU JB!!!
omg omg omg iam so excited abot the movie i wil be the first person on line to get a ticket with my friends alex katrina and asia
Ok i wanted to add one more person to my list of people to play edward in Twilight this one is my favorite by far!!!!
Drew Fuller!!!!!!!
http://www.wallpaperbase.com/wallpapers/celebsm/drewfuller/drew_fuller_1.jpg
STILL IN LOVE WITH JACOB BLACK!!!! KISSES TO YOU JB!!!
Edward is such a babe in My head, and I hope this doesn’t ruin it for me and other fans. I’m so excited about the movie! I might try out! Who knows! I’m really excited and know everybody else is too!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!

Is there any current news about auditions yet? And why did they take down the most recent news on Stephanie Meyer’s site?
As for actors and actresses..
I really don’t like choosing mainstream and already highly known people for the characters, because, it would feel like it was just the actors/actresses playing the character, not the character being shown through the actor/actress.
But, I really don’t think Gerard Way would be a good Edward… does he have acting experience?
For Alice.. I kind’a pictured her to be younger than that of Rachel Leigh Cook. She just seems more like a kid in spirit as a character, and I could never imagine her to be so adult looking.
I really do want this to rely on auditions on new faces.
And, if I could just add- I’ve just had some inspiration for the beginning of the movie music (if they choose to start the movie with Bella in a car just arriving in Forks). The music from Final Fantasy, the movie, with the song ‘The Kiss.’
Haha, yeah.. but, I really feel the mood the song portrays could really help the actress for Bella seem as if something new and exciting is going to come out of her journey in Forks, just by the first look at it. It could really set the mood of Twilight at a good start.
But anyway, thats just the way I pictured it. Hopefully they could make the background music along those beats.
Can’t wait!
Gerarg Way really isn’t how i pictured Edward to at all….bu that’s just my opinion. I really like this guy:
http://www.stevensplanet.com/MichL/myspace/Bella/edwardbellamanip.jpg
it’s Hayden Christensen, but i think he would be too old by the time the movie comes out.
to flower:
He is ok i still think Drew Fuller is the most good looking Edward i have found so far. But i know we all have our own opinions!!
And to Knave:
Your right!!! now that I think about it does Gerard Way have any acting expearience? i guess he should just stay with singing!! Ill have to look up that one song you where talking about.
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU JACOB BLACK!!!! kIsSeS TO YOU JB!!!
As long as the movie is on i am ok with whatever is going with it
And just to say that Alphie told us not to talk about the cast here so those of you who like to talk about the characters, maybe you guys should talk about it somewhere else
like she said:
WE HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CAST
so don’t go babbling on about who is going to be the BEST character for the movie, its not up to us
to Alison:
i know that we don’t have any say what so ever in the casting, and that the people we like aren’t going to be in the movie, but i still think its fun to talk about it anyways…….who cares??……..we’re not causing any harm.
—————————————————
also, i used to post all the time on a message board called ‘chapter one of eclipse and movie news’, but they took the posting box out. Does anyone know why that happened???
no offense but gerard way is now implanted in my mind as “racoon-man” because of all that man make up he wears, so if he is edward, im gonna be like ” hey look! its a racoon!” and start cracking up and people in the theater will throw popcorn at me…
hahahahahaha…….i have to agree with the racoon part
