Sam Uley Is Cast

The Daily Vanguard, the newspaper of Portland State University, has announced that Solomon Trimble, of their student body has been cast as Sam Uley.

EDITED: There is a slight error with MTV being credited as the studio making the film, but the rest of the info is correct. 

Also please note: Summit has signed all the actors to a three film deal. It’s a standard sequel clause. It’s how they are guaranteed to get people back if the movie hits big and makes them stars.  The best recent example of this coming into play is the Pirates of the Caribbean series that resurrected Johnny Depp’s career, showed that Orlando Bloom could be more than an elf, and made Kiera Knightly a household name beyond teen flicks like Bend It Like Beckham.  If they didn’t have that sequel clause in play, they never would have gotten those actors back.

It should be noted that Summit can’t proceed to make any sequels, regardless of what they have signed people up for,  until Stephenie gives them the right to do so. On her recent German tour Stephenie clearly stated that she has not yet granted filming rights for anything other than Twilight, and is thinking about it, but has not yet given her OK.
