Good news for Twilight fans this morning: After the tween vampire love story capitalized on the failing health of the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by taking Potter's coveted Thanksgiving Weekend slot (when the boy wizard's latest pic was bumped back to next summer), one of Twilight?s blossoming stars has already booked her next gig. According to the Hollywood Reporter Ashley Greene, who will portray vampire sibling (and extreme hottie) Alice Cullen, has been tapped to headline the edgy, psycho-thriller Summer. Green will star alongside Stephen McHattie (who's set to play the original Nite Owl, Hollis Mason, in Zack Snyder?s Watchmen). The film's plot will revolve around a teenaged girl (assumedly Greene) who runs into a deranged family of serial killers while on a search for the father she never knew. The film, directed by pulp horror vet Lee De Marbre and written by Sean Hogan and Christine Conradt, is currently halfway through its Ottawa shoot, and is scheduled to screen footage at a few horror festivals in the fall.
