Even more cast members announced

I have confirmation on a variety of other cast members from a reliable source. I know there are a million rumors circulating out there about other parts, but since I have no credible confirmation, I am not posting other names at this time.

Again, keeping out site policy in mind, you don’t have to like a particular actor.  However, if you are going to critique this actor on this website, it has to do with their performing abilities and not the fact that they have "The wrong color hair, eyes, a tan, are short…" or any other number of superficial things make-up, lighting, and a good camera angle can solve.

Elizabeth Reaser                 Esme
Ashley Greene         Alice
Nikki Reed                Rosalie
Peter Facinelli        Carlisle

Rachel Lefevre        Victoria

Photo line-up by TwilightObsessed who rocks for working this fast.  Stand by tomorrow when a we feature some banners and avatars featuring new cast members.

    I really like their choice for Alice. :) I wish they’d tell us who Jasper and or Emmett is sooner. I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE MOVIE!

  2. Marga Cruz says:

    YAAAAY TWILIGHT! :) I love Edward! (and Albie)

  3. Katey says:

    Jean Val Jean!!!
    yaaaayy

    snaps for your hubby. (for both his ability to fix the site and his good taste in musicals)
    on halloween my freinds and i went as a chain gang.. and no one knew why i wanted to be 24601 so badly!

    sigh.
    glad to know im not the only semi-crazed Les Mis fan out there :)

  4. Aggie says:

    So they are going to have Viky (victoria) in the movie it’s nice to know! since they did not mention her in the summary of summit :)

  5. Zayra says:

    omg… i don’t know what i’m feeling. i’m, excited about this, yet a little unsure… of course, we all picture them differently. i loved nikki in lords of dogtown but didn’t find her pretty, and now to think she’ll play rosalie… who’s described as BEAUTIFUL. i don’t know. she’s an amazing actress, so i’m sure she’ll pull it off anyways. of course, alice is PERFECT! the others, pretty good too, i’m excited!!

  6. Alice says:

    OMC!! I love the Esme, Victoria, and the Rosalie will do once they give her blonde hair. The Carlise will most likely be good once they do all of the Hollywood-magic, and even though I had my heart set for a different actress as Alice, I think that the one they have chosen will be amazing.

    I can’t wait for the movie!!

  7. Karissa says:

    Awesome picks! I think Alice is perfect. She’s flawless just like I pictured her. Carlise is a cutie! Damn, if I were Bella I would have ditched Edward and hit that up.

  8. Alyssa says:

    ARGGHHH ALICE IS PERFECTION! I CAN’T FIND ANY OTHER PICS OF HER OTHER THAN THOSE 3! GOOD JOB SUMMIT! I can’t wait till Nikki’s and Peter’s transormations.

  9. Karissa says:

    Awesome picks! I think Alice is perfect. She’s flawless just like I pictured her. James is a cutie! Damn, if I were Bella I would have ditched Edward and hit that up.

  10. Katie says:

    I am sooooo excited about Elizabeth Reaser as Esme. I think I screamed… something which I didnt get to do for Kristen (I was at work at the time I found out!)

    I didnt put two and two together with Catharine Hardwick and Nikki Reed but now I am even more irritated by the decision. It is almost as if she was just given the role that was most like her instead of picking the most “rosalie” like person. I hope they do their movie magic!

    My disappointment about Nikki Reed almost meets my excitement about Elizabeth Reaser.. but not quite.

    the choices for Alice and Victoria are also perfect :)

    Thank you to the diligent and amazing people who keep this site going, you are a well of inspiration in the twilight universe.
    Keep doing whatever it is that you do!

  13. Humaa x3 says:

    alice is soo pretty, and rosalie is kinda confusing to me. but im trying to picture her with blond hair. esme is really pretty. they picked a good actors who at least look the part :]

    can’t wait to see who emmett and jasper are.

  14. Jenny says:

    ANOTHER THANKS TO YOU PEL!!!!

    All the chracters were starting to get kinda confusing and i was going to go into paint and make a tree of the charcters but you did that basically already!! THANKS Lex for all ou the hard work!!!

    :]

  15. Amanda says:

    I love the cast, Rosalie I’m not sure about, but I can’t make any judgments until I see her in the role, I loved her in Thirteen. I am so thrilled with Alice, and Esme!!! I am giggling with happiness at this very moment. Carlisle is good, everyone is just great I am so super stoked!!

  16. behappy says:

    I’m excited! I can’t believe it was a like a group announcement. LOL. Almost too much for my heart to take. Anyone else think the Carlisle guy looks a little too…..angry to be Carlisle? I dont know, just an observation.

  17. LCJ says:

    Thanks! You guys and your sources and your sources sources ROCK!!!

  18. Natalie says:

    So is it just me, or does the actress playing Victoria kind of look like Stephenie Meyer.

  19. Kelsey says:

    Everyone is awesome especially Esme. I loved her character on Greys Anatomy. But Nikki Reed? Seriously?

  20. elizabeth says:

    i’m just excited this is actually happening :)

  21. ilse says:

    Omg I cannot express how happy I am right now!!!
    They are all so perfect it’s insane.
    ^______________^

    (And whoever saw Nikki Reed in Thirteen should agree with me that she’ll make a very good Rosalie, blond or brunette)

  22. WKW says:

    I wish the James and Carlisle actors were flipped. Is it just me? Hopefully I’ll be pleasantly surprised by that casting. Elizabeth Reaser was amazing in an artsy movie called, “Sweetland.” I have no doubt that she can pull this off. Alice is perfect. Even Rosalie is beautiful enough for me.

  23. liv says:

    Wow. I’m actually satisfied with everyone. I’m ecstatic. They’ve cast the movie amazingly well so far and I can’t wait to see it.

  24. Mintymischa says:

    I’m in SHOCK . . .

    So many people have been cast!!

    I LOVE ALICE!!!!!

    I LOVE CARLISLE!!!!

    I LOVE VICTORIA!!!!

    I like Esme!

    Rosalie . . . ? Er . . . Bit odd . . . but whatever . . .

    I’m just happy people have been cast!

  25. Kate says:

    Awesome!! New castings!! Im so excited!!! :)
    Wait a moment while I do my happy dance…*proceeds to do happy dance* LOL Okay, I like the choices for Alice and Esme the most. But the actress for Alice has to really needs cut her hair shorter. Other than that, I personally think she’s perfect. Esme is really good also, the only one I’m slightly worried about is Rosalie. The actess is beautiful but her looks are the opposite of Rose’s.
    But, I guess in movies they can do the impossible so we’ll see how it goes.
    Other than that, they did an alright job casting. I think that most of the actors will do fantastic job and do this properly. :)

  26. Luna says:

    I think they`re all absolutely perfect X)
    I seriously can’t wait for this movie!! =D

  27. Lindsey says:

    Okay, so I am genuinely pleased with all of the choices except for Rosalie. I have seen Nikki act before and I think that she will do a wonderful job when it comes to acting…but I just don’t see how that can make her look the part. Everyone is saying that hair color shouldn’t matter, but for Rosalie’s character it really does. She is the blond b**** who totally identifies herself by the way that she looks. Also, I worry that they will not be able to make her pale enough to fit the vampire persona. I’m sure it will all work out in the end, so I’m trying to stay positive about it all. Hopefully when they announce the rest of the cast it will cancel out this one worry. Okay, enough of my opinions…

  28. Staringatthesun says:

    Nikki Reed as Rosalie?
    first of all she doesn’t fit the description of Rosalie AT ALL.

  29. Gina says:

    Nikki Reed as Rosalie?
    Nope. I am not seeing that, for one she doesnt look like the description at all.
    But i may get a different perspective once we see her in costume, she may just be a hidden Rosalie.

    But the one i am most worried about is Peter Facinelli, he isn’t Carlisle. He isn’t dreamy, he isn’t handsome. He isn’t like the kind of guy you’d be speechless when he walks into a room, that what i expected Carlisle to be like since in the books all the nurses were meant to be crazy about him.

    Alice, Esme + Victoria. Yeah i’m pretty happy, Ashley Greene looks like Alice, so yeah it’s all good.

    I guess i just expected more though, i know it’s idiotic but now i know what people felt like who didn’t like the casting choices for Bella+Edward, i’m not really happy about Rosalie or Carlisle, but we’ll have to wait and see, in hope that makeup and great acting skills will make me believe more.

  30. stina says:

    Oh great! I love you people :D it’s great that the news goes so fast around.
    I might add that I’m a little dissapointed to caslisle but maybe it will go good.. good good :) he has great chin.

  32. _blu says:

    OMG. I LOVE ALICE AND BELLA LOADS!
    i think kristen will do a very very good job. i liked her a LOT in the messenger! she is simply perfect for bella!
    ALICE IS SIMPLY STUNNING. I AGREE THAT ‘VAMPIRE’ IS WRITTEN ALL OVER HER FACE. SHE TOTALLY FITS THE DESCRIPTION IN THE BOOK.
    i am not totally happy with edward, but i guess with some make up he’ll look fine. haha, the image of kristen and robert just doesnt click in my mind. oh well .
    rosalie wasnt really like what i imagined, and i imagined esme to be a little more petite, but they’re really not too bad. carlisle seems okay enough.
    i know alice should have short hair, but i really think she’ll look absolutely beautiful with long hair! @_@ i mean it SO suits her face. she is absolutely stunning!
    really like alice! the rest of the actors and actresses werent really like what i pictured in my mind, but bella and alice are totally perfect, i feel. hope the movie turns out well(:

  33. Aggie says:

    Okay I LOVE ALL of them i can already picture Rachel Lefevre as Victoria with the firey red or orange hair. As for Rosilie…… i don’t know, she looks very beautiful and stunning but for some reason i can’t picture her as Rosilie. I’m crossing my finers that Summit will make this movie AWSOME…….and for our actress to look like Rosilie. :)

  34. Andrea says:

    YAY!I’m so happy the site is working again! I was completely lost when I heard the news and had no way to check to see if it was true! (I don’t trust anybody else….lol)

  35. julia says:

    content removed. Let’s not bash another site as I can’t prove this is coming from their administration

  36. Hazel says:

    omg!!!!!!! i got to tell my friends this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i think alice is perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i think bella is perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i think this movie idea is perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!

    whose with me????????

  37. Nup says:

    Loving the choice for Alice!!! I hope they keep her hair long – it’s gorgeous :)

  38. Jessica says:

    I really like the choices, and I’m glad they’re casting actors who aren’t extremely well-known.

    I’ll have to rent old movies that each of the actors are in, so I can see their acting ability. (;

  39. Tairii says:

    Esme is perfect!!!

    Yay!

    /happy dance

  40. swmchick says:

    Thats not what i pictured rosalie to look like, but im sure she’ll do a great job!

    Did you hear that they’re doing casting calls? I hope my parents won’t mind if i got to Portland for a day!! (:

  41. maddie quin says:

    I REALLY WANT TO KNOW WHERE YOU GUYS GET THIS INFORMATION SO QUICK!!!

  42. Edward_Cullen101 says:

    YES!!!!! I told everyone at our school.

  43. Maddie Cullen says:

    OMG!!!!!!!!! SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

    p.s. Robert is Hott! with a capital HOTT!

  44. So it’s raining where I live, and I was like, ahh! Twilight! (My brain has been wired to think rain -> Forks -> Twilight), and decided to check the lexi to see if anything new was up! And it was! Yay!

    Is it just me, or is Summit doing everything… right? Obviously, it’s way too early in the process to make any true opinions on things. Only first impressions can be justifiably made at this point, but they seem to be picking actors who a) can actually act, which is always a plus in movies b) has potential to, after movie magic, really look as close as is humanly possible to the characters we’ve imagined (though obviously everyone imagined something different, and since vampires are beyond human beauty levels no one can actually 100% look like them).

    Thanks for posting this, sorry on behalf of my fellow fans for any drama/stress you’ve gotten due to this!

  45. Kendra says:

    OMC *HAS A FANGIRL ATTACK* sorry about that i love them all we finiallly got some of the cullen casting choices =) i love the casting choices so far give us more please the lex rocks

    Kendra

  46. Sara says:

    Is anyone else scared about Edward being described as having shoulder-length dark hair in the casting call? *tries not to think about it too much*

  47. Lindsey says:

    So is there any websites out there that I could get new information from. I know that the Lexicon is the best, but the only other one that I ever go to is Stephenie’s website. Any suggestions from you devoted fans out there would be greatly appreciated! I need some new sites to devour while I’m bored at work, please!

  48. alice_rocks says:

    Thanks for all the great updates! I check the Lex every chance I get, I am so excited about the movie and Breaking Dawn!

    Don’t get discouraged by people making rude comments. Why would they need to post on the Lexicon if they have their own site. Everyone knows where to come to get reliable source information about the Twilight Universe! Thanks for everything you do!

  49. Paige says:

    Love them all! Carlisle is a vegetarian! it’s fate i tell you! he’ll be fabulous! and Victoria is my favorite! she and james look soo good together and deadly! Good job Summit films!

  50. Sara says:

    And about these new cast members… I wouldn’t be sad if Peter and Cam switched roles, but I’m not too worried. With the miracles of modern technology (and a little makeup, hair dye, and colored contacts), I think (read: I REALLY REALLY HOPE) it will all turn out fine!

    As for Nikki Reed, who some of you are bashing like there’s no tomorrow, I think she’s beautiful. I think it’s important to realize that NO ONE is as beautiful as the REAL Rosalie. She’s a vampire, and thus has unattainable beauty. But Nikki is exotic-looking, which, let’s be honest, I don’t know how well that works for blondes, but I think she’ll do just fine.

    It’s more important that these people can ACT than that they look EXACTLY like you think they should look (which they CAN’T, because they’re all human, as far as I know)! Don’t judge TOO harshly before you actually SEE the movie! Some of us (and YOU) don’t always take the BEST pictures!
