Who would like to see play Edward's Character?"


Well. Sorry. I don't agree with Douglas Booth, but I do agree with Henry Cavill.


Yasmeen actually, this is the most amazing actor there could be for Edward!!! but this is the first time i hear about this thing..he would've been a far better Edward than this Pattinson dude!!

Christopher Lee played Jason Bourne didn't he? So dreamyyyyyyy <3333


Kirby whoa, I have got to be looking at the wrong christopher lee! this guy is OLD!


Darlene I heard Tom Sturridge was supposed to play Edward, but didn't because he was too old. I like him much better than Rob. That's okay though, cuz Tom has to be Christian Ozera in the Vampire Academy movie :)

PERFECT Edward!"


He would have amade a good Edward, too. I was okay with Pattison. Stewart I couldn't stand.

Charm well i think someone wrote Robert Pattinson has his moments in the good looks department, but i just loved him in this part, i cant imagine any one else as Edward.

And Henry Cavill as Edward? Yuck!"


I agree about Henry Cavill. Where does Stephanie Meyer get the idea of Henry playng Edward is beyond me.

To Forever Alone Bella:
Christopher Lee???? He's old. Why???? He's the old dude that played Dracula like a 30 or so years ago. Are you kidding?

Christian and Tom both are cute, but I disagree. Though they both are close to the same age as Robert. I can't see either one of them as Edward. Christian does do something for "Vampire Academy".
I just don't see it.

There's just almost 5 months age difference between Robert and Tom. Tom was born December 21, 1985. Robert born on May 13, 1986.

Who are you talking about? Are you talking Jason Bourne on "The Bourne Identity", "The Bourne Supremacy", The Bourne Ultamatum", and "The Bourne Legacy". Because if that's what you're talking about, you're thinking Matt Damon. He's way tool old to play Edward.


Teresa Louise wrote: "Weng wrote: "Douglas Booth for me. ^^"

oh god yes he is so hot, and almost of the right age! He is 19 i think."


Douglas Booth is 20. A baby compared to Robert.


Amanda I think he plays the part well and it's very hard at this stage to imagine anybody else in the part.


brooke1994 I heard that Rob hates the Twilight Saga? Why was he even in it then?


Amanda animaldisneyreaderfan4lyfe7 wrote: "I heard that Rob hates the Twilight Saga? Why was he even in it then?"
I doubt he hates it but I'm guessing after playing the same character for a few years he's probab;y delighted to be finished!

Ummmmmm no. Christopher leee is bourne. I have seem the ay

Yeah. That might be useful.


Cheryl Hi guys...off topic but Matt Damon WAS Jason Bourne in the first 3 movies....but apparently is not returning for number 4...so the guy being referenced must be in the 4th movie. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GI7YQ...

Totally agreed. With all the make-up and painte don lips, he looked like a drag queen.

Now Henry Cavill on the other hand...yum!


Fatimah I love Robert Pattinson as Edward, and he plays the part amazingly. And, after all, he beat 3,000 people to play Edward.

Yeah. I guess he should play Eddy. But I still don't like it.

yeah, 3000 people who must've sucked!!!!

Oh mary you hit the nail on the head with that one!!

BubblesTheMonkey Personally, I despise how they picked Robert Pattinson. I think he is extremely ugly. I think SM's choice was a ton better.


Kirby Mary wrote: "As long as we're fantasizing about should have's, I think Johnny Depp--25 years ago--would have been perfect..."

I think he's way hotter today than pattinson!

Agreed! He's hideous :)


Carolyn When I read the book I pictured Edward looking a lot like Hayden Christensen. But I guess he would have been a little old for the part too.

Charisma Nya wrote: "well, it is still too late."

It was 'too late' the moment they chose the producer and director. Regulars cannot really choose the cast for the film, right? So all we can do is complain ;)


Mary Rose Madi (Wolf Girl) wrote: "UGH! Robert Pattinson is NOT who I pictured as edward. I'm not an edward fan in the first place, but Bella goes on and on and on about how beautiful he is. Eh... RP doesn't fit the bill."

Where's the 'LIKE' button? ;)

Pomi Ayalew oh thank god that someone is asking this question. i HATE Patterson. He was not the Edward i imagined in my head. i have always seen Edward played by Heden christianon, the guy who played the lead in "Jumper". Now he was hot, perfect guy to play a vampire.


Nicole Forever Alone Bella is what I call a troll. She/he/it posts the most ridiculous things to get others to react. She/he/it thinks they are funny.

It's called freedom of speech.

Did I say she/he/it couldn't post? Does freedom of speech not apply to my post as well? I called a spade a spade.

What is your problem?!? X( You don't even know her. She IS funny. Forever Alone Bella, don't listen to Nic. She's not very nice.

Then why are you saying that what he or she is saying is ridiculous?

I'm perfectly nice. I'm allowed to post here, too. I find her posts annoying. I'm going to say so if I fee like it. I don't think you're being very nice to me. People are trying to have an intelligent discussion about things and it's ruined for me by her posts.

Oh, whatever. Madi is right, don't judge on someone you don't even know. If she's annoying you, ignore it. Gosh.

Because Christopher Lee is obviously not who she would choose to play Edward. Then she posted a picture of Jackie Chan. That's being ridiculous, in my opinion. Plus, she's been running around all of the Twilight discussions for days posting things that didn't happen in the book.

She's saying her favorite parts are from other books or movies. She's doing it to troll or trying to be funny. I don't find it funny so I've stated as such.

It's not me being mean. I'm simply tired of seeing it every where. It's difficult to have a discussion about anything with those sorts of interruptions.

yeah, I think I'm on nicole's side here...perhaps if forever alone bella would just not post irrelevant crap quite so often...or on quite so many threads...or would actually contribute once in a while?

That's all I'm trying to say. I'm really not being mean. It has just been incessant lately. Every Twilight thread. Every post.

Y'all are welcome to disagree, of course. It's no skin off my nose, but I'm still going to state my opinion on the matter.
