Synopsis
Based on the best-selling book series by Stephenie Meyer.

BELLA SWAN has always been a little bit different. Never one to run with the crowd, Bella never cared about fitting in with the trendy, plastic girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother remarried and sent Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she didn't expect much of anything to change. But things do change when she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful EDWARD CULLEN. For Edward is nothing like any boy she's ever met. He's nothing like anyone she's ever met, period. He's intelligent and witty, and he seems to see straight into her soul. In no time at all, they are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance — unorthodox because Edward really isn't like the other boys. He can run faster than a mountain lion. He can stop a moving car with his bare hands. Oh, and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. That's right — VAMPIRE. But he doesn't have fangs — that's just in the movies. And he doesn't drink human blood, though Edward and his family are unique among vampires in that lifestyle choice.

To Edward, Bella is that thing he has waited 90 years for — a soul mate.

But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy.

Somehow or other, they will have to manage their unmanageable love. But what will they do when LAURENT and JAMES, the Cullens' mortal vampire enemies, come to town, looking for Bella?

Based on the #1 New York Times Bestselling series by Stephenie Meyer, TWILIGHT is a cultural phenomenon, with a fanatic fanbase that eagerly awaits this movie. Critically acclaimed director Catherine Hardwicke brings to life this modern, visual, and visceral Romeo and Juliet story of the ultimate forbidden love affair — between vampire and mortal.

Principal photography starts First Quarter 2008. U.S. release via Summit Entertainment.

i really want Chace Crawford to be edward.

OMG! I'm so excited!

Anyone knows who the guy is????

I have not read any of the books but basically have since my cousin and everyone I know tells me about it.
I did hear that Kristen Stewart was casted as Bella and AM FREAKING OUT Who will play Edward?!

lol.that's the question everyone wants to know...

WHO WILL PLAY EDWARD!!!!????

Oh hey, it's the girl that was in Speak and in The Land of Women
Can't wait to see who'll play Edward, Jacob, and Alice.

He's hot and all, but he just doesn't fit the description of Edward in my opinion.

I'm still hoping that they cast Gaspard, even though the chances are that they won't.




Kristen Stewart is perfect as Bella. Go casting team! They probably won't go wrong with their choice for Edward.

OMG!!! I've been waiting for this! 2008?!?! I could wait... I could also wait for the next book. hehehe... Man... I'm sooo excited! Can't wait to see who will play Edward.

2008?!?! IMO, I think it's a lot better then Emily :x
I want Gaspard to be Edward! AHH!
I wonder when will the news out for who is Edward.

OMG.. A MOVIE? yayyy
i loved this book.
YES.. who will play edward??
i wonder if kristen stewart will be good as bella..

Kristen Stewart is really young... 1990.

But i'm so thrilled to see this movie.

kristen stewart is good actress
but i think she's too pretty to play bella.
i wanted emily browning >_<
oh well.
curious to find out who edward is,
i think i'm the only one who doesn't want Gaspard as Edward.

ohmigosh!
That's the girl from Zathura?
I don't remember her that well from that movie...
so I dunno about my opinion about her yet....
I can't believe it's coming out next year!

I HOPE IT STICKS TO THE PLOT, THATS ALL I ASK

Once they announce who plays Edward, THEN I'll make my opinion about this movie
I hope they choose a good Edward ;_;

my personal favorite for edward is chase crawford.
but my friend told me today that gaspard ulliel was going to be casted as edward.
I WANT CHASE!

Ohh~ I wonder who's gonna play Edward.
I hope he's hot. ;D

I kinda wanted Ellen Page to play Bella...
In Stephenie Meyer's site, she stated that she didn't want anyone over 21 playing Edward, so yeah... Since Edward is "kinda" 17 years old...

cant wait for the movie. i wonder who's gonna do edwards part. hope he;d be super super HOT cause i alwasy imagine edward to be hot.

Omfg I totally cannot wait for this movie
Twilight is going to be re-read by me soon haha.
Ooo Kristen Stewart kinda does look like the Bella I've imagined....
But man, like everybody's asking...WHO'S GOING TO BE EDWARD?

Can't wait! I liked her in the messenagers too! I loved twilight, new moon and eclipse...i wonder who will be edward....?! I wanted this book to be made into a movie when i read it 3 years ago.!

Yes, what I'm really dying to find out is who's gonna get cast as Edward. They CANNOT screw that one up.

wow I can't wait for this
I loved Twilight =) the sequels were alright, but Twilight = <3

I'm so excited for this movie!
Hopefully they'll cast a good actor to play Edward. ^-^
I can see Kristen Stewart playing Bella.
Hope she does a good job though.
Too bad we'll have to wait a while for the movie.

ive heard about this ..

i can't wait for the movie

I can imagine Edward Cullen fans going crazy

Wow. That's almost how I'd picture her to be in the book. Awesome.

not the bella i imagined, she looks so old in that picture. we'll see.

OMG SERIOUSLY?! O_O!!!!!! IM SOOOOOOO WATCHING IT IN THEATERS!
I think Kristen Stewert looks like the Bella i imagined. Great choice

HOLY CRAP! .. i've been waiting
for this, seriously. I hope Kristen Stewart
will do a great job. Gaspard Ulliel fits Edward. [hotter than hot babiie!]

[Fingers-crossed] .. I cant wait!

OHMYGOD!!!! Finally!!! I've been dying to see this live in action!!
I wonder who will play Edward? Can't wait! Thanks for the update!

I knew this was going to happen sooner or later....I'm really excited but at the same time I hope it reaches expectation.
I really want to know who's going to play EDWARD ^O^!! Someone really hot.
GASPARD ULLIEL is not a bad choice ;]...

I can picture her as Bella
Can't wait to see this
But as everyone has mentioned, the big question is Who will play Edward? I really hope it's Gaspard

Not the Bella that I imagined, however she is very pretty. She looks too 'strong' to be Bella, but we'll just have to see how she can act in the movie (:
oh dang, I want Gaspard to be Edward :0 hahaha.

I really really really hope the movie doesn't kill the story.

GAHHH I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS.
i dont really care who plays bella,
BUT WHO PLAYS EDWARD ?! bahah.

^ haha that's exactly what I was thinking!
I think Kristen Steward will make a great Bella because she looks like what I imagined Bella would look like ^^...cant wait for the movie to come out! I hope it's going to be good because i'm going to be sooooo disappointed if it's not

There's rumors all over the communities that Colton Haynes is going to be playing Edward.


I personally think he's not bad playing Edward and they would need to give him contacts to have the golden eyes *drools*.

http://community.livejournal.com/twilight_...678.html#cutid1

I think Kristen Stewart is ok for the role of Bella.
I wanna know who will be Alice?? I love Alice and most of all Esme!!!! <333
I just started reading Eclipse and I haven't read anything about Esme and Carlisle . Jacob is so..... i dunno.. haha!
Can't wait to see the movie!

My Edward Cullen

I present to you Gaspard Ulliel <3
But Meyer refuses to accept anyone over 21 =[ tears*

woot~! there's gonna be a movie! hope it doesn't ruin the book
though =P Kristen Stewart is pretty ^-^ i can sorta see her as
Bella, i wonder who's gunna be Edward and Jacob @.@

yay I cant wait. The book was <333

I think Bella looks too pretty xD
I wonder who will play Edward and Jacob.
Oh and Alice (shes suppose to be reallly pretty~)

kristen actually kinda looks like the Bella I pictured, but I'm wondering who's gonna play Jacob

i didn't really picture kristen as bella..but i guess she's ok....and i really think gaspard would be PERFECT for edward...i can't see anyone else as edward...i hope they cast a really good jacob...he's one of my favorite characters...=]

OMGGG i cant wait!
i looooooved the book
i wonder who will be Edward and Alice too

Colton Haynes doesn't look like a bad Edward my only problem with him is that he's a model and lets face it models generally can't act for beans. It's only a rare few that can. I really would prefer Gaspard but if he doesn't get it then I'll just have him as Edward in my head! *Swoons* I keep imagining Edward has a british accent even though I know he was born in the states. It's rather werid of me isn't it.

And people who are apprehensive over Kirsten, give her chance. Let's see how she performs (ie watch the movie) then we can rip into her if she doesn't meet our expectations. Is her hair more red brown or is that just me?

Chances are they are going to screw up the script and budget like Eragon.

None of the popular-book-turn-movie films have ever been successfully, and I mean popular (cause there are some good ones, oldies).

And Meyer said she has no say in the casting right? > < How about we force Gaspard! (Although I feel like he's too big and professional for this...) Does Gaspard even speak English? > < I've only watched his French movies and even in those he doesn't speak much...

Finished all 3 books in 3 days, I'm dying for more.. definitely can't wait for the movie (:
I agree with everyone's comments about Gaspard, he is absolutely perfect as Edward..

Just imagine if his eyes were the color of Edward's & his hair a little different.. *faints*

^ Gaspard does speak English! It's not fluent fluent, but he does! I was watching an interview of him on youtube. XD
Truthfully, I don't mind if Gaspard doesn't end up playing Edward. I truly want someone who CAN act like he's Edward, yah know? Erf. haha.

I think Kristin Stewart's going to be an awesome Bella! Am I the only one who thinks so? Sure, Emily Browning would've been awesome too, but Kristin Stewart is someone I pictured to be Bella ever since I watched Speak. =T
