Dakota Fanning cast in "Twilight" sequel, "New Moon"? - Blu-ray Forum

For those that care:

Quote:

The teenage actress is reportedly in talks to play the seductive young Italian vampire opposite Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson.

Eonline reports, "There were no auditions. They just offered it to her outright, and now they're in negotiations."

The casting news may totally thrill “Twilight” fans, who have been a bit dismayed at rumors of Vanessa Hudgens (can we can an 'ick?') jumping on the werewolf bandwagon.

One fervent “Twilight” fan even started an online petition calling for the studio to sign up Fanning as Jane.

So far, no official announcement, so this could all turn out to be wishful fan thinking. But we can always hope and pray!

"New Moon" is scheduled to begin filming in Italy this spring.

I could totally see Dakota as Jane. Forget "The Secret Life of Bees." She's great as the telekinetic, dread-locked clairvoyant chick in "Push."

I know the role and it's quite small. I'd still love to see Dakota do it =].

I don't really care for the Twilight series, but Dakota Fanning's one of the better child actors in Hollywood.

I find it odd that Twilight fans were so against Vanessa Hudgens being in the film, considering the audience for Twilight and High School Musical is basically the same.

I go to a Miley Cyrus forum (same basic audience) and yeah. Tons of people don't like Vanessa. She's not very talented.

I'd have to agree that she is one of the better child actors in Hollywood. I would add that Freddie Highmore is also one of the better ones too.

I would love to see them do a movie together.
