It looks like the aspiring vampire franchise Twilight has recruited some new blood! Variety.com reports today that Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, and Nikki Reed will join stars Robert Pattison and Kristen Stewart in the adaptation of Stephenie Meyer?s series.
And that?s not all for the Twilight bloodshed! Jackson Rathbone, Ashley Greene, and Kellan Lutz have also recently been cast, and will join Pattison as the members of his family of vampires, the Cullens. Directed by Catherine Hardwicke, Stewart will play Bella Swan, a 17-year-old girl who moves to a small town to live with her father, but becomes drawn to the mysterious (and quite pale) Edward Cullen (Pattison), who she learns is a vampire.
