Summit has released a couple of cast lists for New Moon and I'd like to know what others think of them. I personally think the werewolf pack is really, really hot:)
You can view the cast list here:http://twilightsource.com/movie2_cast.php ( I go to Twilightsource.com for any twilight related info:D )
The actors I liked overall were Kristen Stewart, Ashley Green, and Robert Pattinson. I think Nikki Reed didn't do such a good job at playing Rosalie, because honestly, Nikki Reed doesn't look like the most beautiful woman alive. I think Ashley Green looks better:)
What do you think?

Well I can agree with you that. Nikki Reed is not that beautiful but I still think she portrayed the character well as far as acting is concerned. I've seen the pictures of the wolf pack and they are definitely hot! I am definitely looking forward to seeing the movie.
What do you think about Michael Sheen playing as Aro? It's brilliant don't you think?

Yeah, it was amazing for them to cast Michael Sheen as Aro. An Underworld Werewolf now turned Ruler of the Vampire Clan. Nice!

I agree with you about Nikki Reed. I think she's pretty, but not the way Rosalie would be. I think Ashley Green is cute, but noy quite the Alice I imagined.
But I do think Rob and Kristen were very well suited to play Edward and Bella.
I've seen a couple pitctures of the new characters cast.
I guess the werewolves look ok, idk, I'm way more into the vampires.
And I think Dakota Fanning will make an excellent Jane.
I also saw the actress that's playing Heidi, and she's gorgeous.

As some have stated I don't think it would have been wise for them to switch any of the characters out.
I agree with you on Nikki Reed playing Rosalie -- she's no where near beautiful enough for Rosalie. I do think Nikki portrayed Rosalie perfectly though.
I don't think that Ashley would have made a good Rosalie either but I do think she's perfect for Alice. She's got that petite pixie quality about her that's described in the books.
I think that Edward could have been cast better. I just don't think that Robert Pattinson is good looking enough for Edward. I wasn't impressed with his overall performance either as Edward but I'm not sure that was entirely his fault -- I think the direction of the movie and the director is what might have made it unimpressive. I didn't think he was good looking enough for his role as Cedric either. However I suppose his looks are subjective. As far as the others from the original I am happy with their casting choices.
I think that Dakota Fanning is perfect for Jane. And I've always thought that Cameron Bright was always a little evil looking so I think that Alec suits him to perfection. The rest I'll just have to wait on lol. I did find it a little funny that Michael Sheen switched sides on us lol -- I think he'll make a good vamp.

I think the wolf pack is HOT, but i pictured Embry differently. I pictured him a little skinnier. But it's still a good fit, I think. I like the pick for Harry Clearwater. I LOVED Graham Greene in Dances with Wolves. I think he was an excellent pick. I'm glad they are keeping the original cast. I think a lot of fans would have up in arms if they had changed anyone though. I can't wait for November! :-D

I think the casting for the Twilight crew is absolutely right on target. I can't imagine seeing any of the sequels with other actors/actresses playing the original parts. The new cast members for the Volturi coven are pretty interesting, although I am questioning their choice of Dakota Fanning as Jane. She doesn't seem menacing enough for me, but maybe she'll show us a side of her that will be brilliant in the part. The wolf pack...in 2 words...HUBBA HUBBA! Again, great casting!

I have also read the casts of New Moon and I find it very interesting. Director Chris Weitz who will direct this Twilight series, early on promised a different movie something closer to the book story.
I agree with you that summit production really got a mistake in picking Nikki Reed as Rosalie, she simply did not fit to the description that says "most beautiful woman in the world". I find Ashley Green as prettier than Nikki Reed, I think they must look for somebody else to play Rosalie.

I haven't watched the Twilight movie yet... and i am about to finish Breaking Dawn... then i can finally buy a cd or dvd... i don't really know any of the actors... except for Kristen and Rob Pattinson... but i read that Dakota Fanning will be playing the role of Jane... the Volturi guard with a very nasty gift... i think that suits her well... the role is quite small but meaty... and Dakota has the capacity of turning small roles into huge ones...
