Vampires are coming to a theater near you...

Sharpen your fangs and get ready for some forbidden love. Stephenie Meyer’s massively popular book, Twilight, is being made into a movie.  The director is Catherine Hardwicke, Twilight by Stephenie Meyerwho you might know from the movies Thirteen, Lords of Dogtown, and The Nativity Story.  The only characters that have already been cast are Bella Swan and Edward Cullen.  Kristen Stewart from Panic Room will play Bella.  Edward will be played by Robert Pattinson, who was Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter.  Click on their names for links to pictures of them.  If you’ve read the book, do they look like how you imagined?  Personally, I thought Bella would look more delicate, like Alexis Bledel from Gilmore Girls.  However, I’m excited to see what everyone will look like on the big screen. 

Check out Stephenie Meyer’s website for more information about the upcoming movie and her own personal opinion about the casting. Who would you want in the Twilight movie? What scenes from the book are you excited to see in the movie?

I love Robert Pattinson as Edward, and I think Kristen Stewart can probably pull off Bella. She's not who I pictured for the role (I liked Stephenie Meyer's pick of Emily Browning, because I think she looks more fragile and vulnerable), but I think it will work. I'm so excited for this movie!
