But wait, that’s not all! Summit Entertainment also dropped a few lines about the new characters and stars that will be in the sequel that weren’t in the original. I’m guessing if you’ve read the book, you probably already knew this, but if you haven’t… prepare to bust another load!
New cast members include the legendary Volturi, a venerable coven of vampires who weigh and impose the laws of the vampire world, as well as two new members of the Quileute Indian Nation. The Volturi include Charlie Bewley as Demetri, Jamie Campbell Bower as Caius, Daniel Cudmore as Felix, Christopher Heyerdahl as Marcus, all Volturi enforcers. Dakota Fanning plays Jane, a high ranking and powerful Volturi member and Cameron Bright is Alec, her brother. Noot Seer plays Volturi member Heidi. Michael Sheen plays Aro, the Volturi leader. Graham Greene appears as Harry Clearwater, Quileute tribal leader and old friend of Bella’s father Charlie. Tinsel Korey is Emily, the fiancé of Sam Uley.
And there you have it, though I’m confused as why they didn’t mention Michael Sheen as Volturi, since that was just announced a few days ago, but beggers can’t be choosers, right?
That’s pretty much it, you crazy six. NEW MOON is filming on locations in Vancouver, BC and Tuscany, Italy, in hopes to be fully completed in time for its November 20th release date. I can’t flippin’ wait, what about you???
