200901121546.jpg Amy Wilkinson over at EW Popwatch likes the idea of Hudgens as Leah Clearwater in New Moon, noting that–

And as much as I want to hate the idea, I don’t. Sure, she’s much cuter than I ever imagined Leah to be, but her mix of Filipino, Spanish, Chinese, Irish, and Native American ethnicities, make her a physically good match for the Quileute shapeshifter. Plus, she’s already got big hair.

Wilkinson recognizes, however, that Hudgens has her downsides–she’s not the right emotional type and her acting chops haven’t been proven in a non-bouncy part:

That being said, the 20-year-old has to show us something she hasn’t before: angst. Known for perky parts, most notably High School brainiac Gabriella, Hudgens will have to bring it as a girl dumped by her love who becomes the only female werewolf of her tribe. If she can embody this mix of contempt and snark with a dash of vulnerability thrown in, I think she could not only nail the role but make a nice foil to Taylor Lautner’s Jacob.

Sam Uley Solomon Trimble Here’s a a new interview with Solomon Trimble, who plays Sam Uley in Twilight. He talks a little about New Moon, bonding on the set, and his experience with Twilight. He even wrote a poem from Sam’s perspective to Emily!–

I know you can’t read my mind like all the rest,

And that of two, you may doubt that I love you best,

So know that from time to time while lying on your chest,

I imagine playfully fighting our child over a chance at your breast,

And when he coos with smell of milk on his breath,

In that moment, you curb my appetite for death.

I love only you Emily, Your puppy dog Sam.

Solomon Trimble

Ashley Greene Ashley Greene, who plays Alice Cullen in Twilight, has confirmed to MTV News that Vanessa Hudgens is auditioning for the role of Leah Clearwater in New Moon, confirming one of the possible actresses that we mentioned recently for the part. Though Leah doesn’t play a huge part in New Moon, her role becomes more important later in the series, and Eclipse is set to be filmed directly after New Moon. Greene says that “I think she’d be great” of Hudgens. Also confirmed is changes to Rosenberg’s script for New Moon

“I hear they’re doing another rewrite,” the actress revealed of the in-flux script. “I’m with you guys — I’m so excited to read it.”

On the one hand, I’m glad they’re giving plenty of attention to the script, but on the other–are they really going to be able to finish this film in 10 months if they don’t even have a completed script yet?
