They just cast Edward for the movie version of Twilight (thanks Mendy for the info!) and it's going to be Robert Pattinson, aka Cedric Diggory!! I never would have thought of him, but I think he's a GREAT choice! Yay, it's like my favorite literary and movie worlds are going to collide in this movie - Cedric as Edward, that's just cool!!
And here's a pic of Kristin Stewart, the actress slated to play Bella. There seems to be a sort of online uproar about her casting (I guess lots of fans were hoping for the girl from A Series of Unfortunate Events), but I'm fine with Kristin Stewart. She seems to be an accomplished actress at such a young age and she's close enough to how I pictured Bella.
Oh, and here's another little tid-bit (this will be my last addition to this post :)the release date for Twilight the movie is set for Dec. 12, 2008 even though the movie is still in pre-production, I guess they are actually filming in Feb. So Dec. 12th seems a little ambitious, but I hope it works out - less than a year from now Tracy and I will be in line with our Edward T-shirts on!!
Alright, so even though I said that last bit was my last addition to this post, well I spoke too soon... I just had to include this fun pic of my Edward-loving friend Tracy and me in our T-shirts (I wasn't kidding when I said I'll be standing in line for the movie with an Edward T-shirt on!:) Hee hee.

Yes, I saw that yesterday. I thought he was a pretty good choice. If only we can get cedric out of our minds!
MMMMM, Perfect! Wow, I had no idea there was going to be a movie! What fabulous news!
Ooh, that is cool!! And he'll have far more screen time!
I don't think he's that good looking...hmmmmm
I have to see the rest of his body to make up my mind. I can't wait to go see the movie with all those who love Edward! Jacob girls can come too, I guess.
He has the perfect, sculpted features thing going for sure. I don't know too much about Kristin Stewart, but in the picture, she looks just about right.
December 12 is my anniversary, but I don't think Chris will mind if I spend it with Edward. What a great gift that would be! Can't wait...
Very cool...thanks for the info!
I am the only one that hasn't read this book! I asked Lincoln to get it for me for Christmas...so I can be like the cool girls. =)
I have to say I liked the first picture you posted of him.
They both look so good for the parts! I'm happy! And I will be home in the States when it comes out! I will finally be one of those enthusiastic people who go to the movie in the theater.
Jeri, I put that pic back up for you! I actually really like it too, but I thought I'd put a pic of Robert as Cedric up there to go along with my post title... I've been all kinds of weird with this post - changing it every other day, but now I'm done with it!:)
I want to be standing next to you too. I want to see how this all works out.
i just love these books. maybe i'll have to come back to MD for the movie night?!
