The Twilight Saga: Eclipse Movie

Summit Entertainment announced the following have been cast in THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN for roles in The Amazon Coven, The Egyptian Coven, The Irish Coven and The Romanian Coven as well as the American and European Nomads as outlined below.

THE AMAZON COVEN

The Amazon Coven is comprised of Tracey Heggins as Senna and Judi Shekoni as Zafrina.

Among the oldest vampires in the world, Senna and Zafrina are descendants of an ancient Amazonian tribe. They have lived outside of civilization for centuries and therefore make no attempt to keep up a human facade. Though they drink human blood, the Amazons have long been allies of Carlisle.

THE EGYPTIAN COVEN

The Egyptian Coven is comprised of:
Omar Metwally (RENDITION, MUNICH) as Amun.
Andrea Gabriel (Lost, House) as Kebi.
Rami Malek (NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM) as Benjamin.
Angela Sarafyan (LOVE HURTS, THE GOOD GUYS) as Tia.

The Egyptian Coven consists of Amun, Kebi, Benjamin, and Tia, with Amun as the leader. It is stated that even though they are not a biological family, they could pass for one. Amun is extremely protective of his family and fearful of Aro.

THE IRISH COVEN

The Irish Coven is comprised of Marlane Barnes (THE TREE OF LIFE) as Maggie, Lisa Howard as Siobhan and Patrick Brennan as Liam.

The Irish Coven, a relatively young group, was founded by Siobhan and Liam, but Maggie’s talent made her an important element of it. They are not vegetarian but they are civilized.

THE ROMANIAN COVEN

The Romanian Coven is comprised of Noel Fisher (THE PACIFIC, FINAL DESTINATION 2) as Vladimir and Guri Weinberg (MUNICH) as Stefan.

The Romanian Coven is one of the oldest covens in the world and they were the ruling vampire family until they were unseated by the Volturi. For that reason they harbor a centuries old resentment of the Italian coven.

THE AMERICAN NOMADS

The American Nomads are comprised of:
Lee Pace as Garrett (Pushing Daisies, THE GOOD SHEPHERD).
Toni Trucks (MUSIC AND LYRICS) as Mary.
Bill Tangradi (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles) as Randall.
Erik Odom as Peter.
Valorie Curry (Veronica Mars) as Charlotte.

Turned during the Revolutionary War, Garrett has chosen to live a nomadic existence, wandering the world on his own. Garrett has never lost the rebellious spirit of his human life, and loves a good fight, always rooting for the underdog. Though not a vegetarian, Garrett is among Carlisle’s closest and oldest friends.

Mary and Randall are American nomadic vampires.

Peter and Charlotte are nomadic vampires and mates. They were created during the aftermath of the Southern Vampire Wars, in which Jasper was a key player. They have remained friends with Jasper ever since.

THE EUROPEAN NOMADS

The European Nomads are comprised of Joe Anderson (THE CRAZIES) as Alistair

A nomadic vampire from England, Alistair has a misanthropic, brooding personality and a deep mistrust of all authority. Although he counts Carlisle as his closest acquaintance, he doesn’t visit more than once a century.

Here we have two new photos from the Vancouver set during filming of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 1.

Take A Look - Spoiler Warning!

Kellan Lutz chatted with Marc Malkin over at E! Online about the Breaking Dawn filming schedule, and what he thinks of the plans for the big birth scene.

“We start sometime in October and go all the way through to late April,” Kellan Lutz says. “I just did a [wardrobe fitting] and a contact lenses test.”

As for that much anticipated, hard-to-imagine birthing scene…

Lutz cracked, “I think they should show it and have Emmett in the background laughing.”

Joking aside, Lutz says he knows what director Bill Condon has planned for the potentially gory sequence. “I love the way that they’re showing it,” he said. “I really thought that was going to be really a tough thing to show.”

Screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg recently mentioned the birth of baby Renesmee won't necessarily be gruesome. "I don't think it's about the amount of blood you show," she said. "It's about the intensity of it. It's on their faces. It's all from Bella's point of view when you're seeing what's going. It should feel visceral. I think it's going to be pretty intense."

Here we have a few photo's from Kellan Lutz photoshoot for you all to drool over.

Kellan played the part of Emmett Cullen in The Twilight Saga Movies.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 will be released on the 16th of November 2012.

The director of this movie will be: Bill Condon. A few cast members have also been announced including: Kristen Stuart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner.

The astonishing conclusion to the series, THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN, PART 2, illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic that has entranced millions.

Time put together a list of of the top 10 famous leaks and Stephenie Meyer and Midnight Sun made #6.

Below is what they had to say:

In 2005, rookie author Stephenie Meyer wrote a book about vampires in just a few months. Faster than she’d written it, Twilight leapt from bookshelves and the world met Bella, Edward and the rest of the Cullen clan. Told from Bella’s point of view, Twilight is the story of a star-crossed couple who cannot consummate their romance because Bella’s love, Edward, is a vampire. Meyer followed her breakthrough with three sequels in the next three years, all of which became gigantic bestsellers.

In 2008, she tried something different (sort of) by retelling the events of the first books, only from Edward’s point of view. Sooner than you can say “glittering vampire,” 12 unfinished chapters from the new manuscript, Midnight Sun, appeared on the Internet. “I think it is important for everybody to understand that what happened was a huge violation of my rights as an author, not to mention me as a human being,” Meyer said in a message to fans. Rather than punish her loyal following, Meyer posted her entire unfinished Midnight Sun draft on her website. The only catch is that it’s unprintable — better bring an e-reader.

Summit Entertainment’s THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN will be filmed in both Baton Rouge, Louisiana and Vancouver over the next year starting this fall.

The next chapter of THE TWILIGHT SAGA will be released as two separate films with the first of the two being released in theatres on November 18, 2011.

Bill Condon will direct both movies starring Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner along with Billy Burke as well as returning members of the Cullen Family including Peter Facinelli as Carlisle, Elizabeth Reaser, Jackson Rathbone, Nikki Reed, Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz.

The movie, based on the fourth novel in author Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series, is being written by Melissa Rosenberg with Wyck Godfrey, Karen Rosenfelt and Stephenie Meyer producing.

During a recent interview with OK! Turkey (via MTV UK), Twilight heartthrob Robert Pattinson admitted that rumored girlfriend Kristen Stewart isn't afraid to let people know how she feels—and that her forthrightness has a tendency to make him "uncomfortable":

"Kristen is always really good but also clearly speaks her mind. That can be a bit uncomfortable."

Rob, however is still comfortable enough to offer an example of Kristen Stewart's opinionated nature:

"After we shoot a scene she sometimes looks at the director and says, 'Let's do that again.' If I did that she would probably kill me! She would probably say something like, 'Shut up! The scene was perfect!' "
