The New York Post has an article up about five choices they believe would be great in the role of Alec opposite Dakota Fanning in New Moon. The choices?–
Tom Felton, Best Known For Playing: Draco Malfoy in all the Harry Potter films
Skandar Keynes, Best Known For Playing: Edmund Pevensie in “Chronicles of Narnia” series
Freddie Highmore, Best Known For Playing: Charlie Bucket in “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”
Gaspard Ulliel, Best Known For Playing: Young Hannibal Lecter in “Hannibal Rising”
Alex Pettyfer, Best Known For Playing: Alex Rider in “Stormbreaker” — although that’s a bit of a stretch since no one here saw that film in America.
Which one of these is your favorite choice? Vote in the poll below! Do you have a better choice? List it in the comments if so!

I chose Tom Felton..
He's a great actor, so he could pull it off.
And then they kind-of look similar…

Dakota could totally play both parts! She's awesome and they could put a masculine wig on her and put some make up on her to make her look more boyish. It would be brilliant!

I agree . . . out of the others, he's what I'd picture Alec looking like.

Nobody!At least none of the above!
Dakota will already cost too much just for being Jane and I'd love to see Jane in the movie as a combination of Jane and Alec of the books(less expenses,better filming quality etc.)
Tom Felton is too old to be Dakota/Jane's twin,too tall also and blonde-come on!
Gaspard Ulliel is older than Rob-COME ON!
Alex Pettyfer is too tall also-same as above!
I like Freddie Highmore but not for Alec.
As for Skandar,if rumors are true that Ben Barnes will play Aro,then wtf?Narnia(Disney) migrates to Twilight Saga?Let Edmund Pevensie alone!
If they do cast Alec how about ALEXANDER LUDWIG?I think he fits perfectly!

Hey, I saw Stormbreaker and I live in the Americas! he's hot. but I think they need someone totally different, and younger. Plus, tom felton is booked solid for the filming of DH for the next year or so.

If you are doing it to be as accurate as possible then it would either have to be Tom Felton or Freddie Highmore as there facial features are very similar and could be pulled off as twins. In my opinion Tom Felton would be to old for the part, Freddie Highmore could pull it off amazingly.

Anyone but that Freddie Highmore, he gives me the creeps
I dont really like any of them… I couldnt see them playing Alec. Maybe it'd just be better if they get some unknown actor to play him
But if I had to pick out of those people… I'd probrobly pick Tom Felton xD But still, I dont think hes right for the part.

I know everyone is kind off saying the guy form harry potter would be good, but I think if I seen him in the role off Alex I would just think “oh thats that guy from Harry Potter”
Oh I dont know I havent thought about it much. It's definately something to think about Lol

I propose another option!
Thomas Sangster, yes a bit old, but he still has a baby face that would look great with Dakotas.
He is the kid from Love Actually, and Nanny MacPhee.

I think tom would be a good alec.. but im guessin that sechdule wise would be badd because hes going to be promoting HBP and there are two more harry potter films left (Deathly hallows part 1 and part 2)…. hummm tough.. the last two guys on the list looks old =/

going with what i saw as alec (cuz they can make him blonde, and remember, twins dont have to be very close in appearance), i think freddy should be alec. he is small, and i think with red eyes and dakota by his side, he could pull of alec REALLY well.

Although I think Gaspard Ulliel looks the part for Alec, I think Tom Felton would do a good job playing Alec.

i don't know. I think tom does look like Dakota, but he's too old. Freddie also looks like her, but I don't know if he could pull the part off. the others don't really look like her.

I agree. For some reason I feel like the two blondes are the two I would never pick. The other three could make it work (in my opinion)

I love Tom Felton, but he is not right for the part of Alec…neither are the other guys. I think maybe the guy from Race to Witch Mountain could be Alec.

It maybe a funny image but many an actress have played the male part in movies. It wouldn't be that big of a stretch. . . .

i would say tom, but him being from harry potter and how people are always comparing twilight to harry potter (for a reason god only knows). this would just have everyone saying stuff like “twilight is just another hp” or ” twilight is copying harry potter!” so they wouldnt choose him. plus robert pattinson is from harry potter, so why push the envelope?!

MMM..THE BLOND GUY FROM HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL IS SOOOOO LIKE DAKOTA. HE LOOKS LIKE HER REAL TWIN. I CANT BELIEVE THEY DIDNT THINK ABOUT HIM. SO PALE..AND BLONDE. HE IS PERFECT….AND WITH A LIL BIT OF MAKEUP HE MIGHT WORK THE PART.

Alex Pettyfer!!!
He was fit in Alex Rider, Strombreaker.
I think he would be good as they look quite similar.

ya the last 2 on the list are the better looking ones but they are both too old. tom is kinda ugly and i was under the impression that all vampires were kinda good looking. they need to look for someone else. I think both the charaters from that new movie return to witch montain ( the one with “the rock” )would have been perfect for the role.

omg thats what i just said! alexander ludwig was my top choice and i always thought that the girl in the new movie with him race to witch montain would have been a perfect for the role ( anne sophia robb ) !

im pretty sure they are comparing the popularity of the two series not that they are the same because they are nothing alike. I am a big fan of both series.

they did consider the guy from high school musical but no one wanted a disney star. its sad because who knows maybe the disney stars can do a good job , like the girl that wanted to play leah, but i just cant picture them playing the part. they did a freaking musical, all im gonna think about is them singing and dancing when im watching the movie, it just really ruins it for most ppl.

mmmm..idk….we just cant do that to the actors. place them only in one rol. look what make up and attitude made to Brad pitt for example. he was a vampire once. and now he is the old benjamin button..or leo di caprio when he played as a “special” kid.. I think its part of their acting career evolution.
)
i saw harry potter and i dont see cedric here when rob is playing his part.
we need to have a special vision. Use the same imagination that we had when we were reading the books. That disney look can dissapear with some makeup on.. specially if the boy has talent and u can see it.
Uff..now i understand the director´s job!!!.. its so hard to please everyone!

impossible 2 please every1. i hate to admit it, because i liked him in harry potter, but tom looks alot like dakota. A little hollywood magic could make him look like Alec, and dakota's twin. and fix how old he looks there. do u think he would drop harry potter 4 NEW MOON, though? tough call…

mmm i think that tom felton is da best option!!!
Mitch hewer is the most qualified to play Alec's role
Mitch Hewer is the best for this role !!!!!! He's so hot !!!
I think none of those ugly fugglers should play Alec!!! They need to be young and cute or something suitable to what the book says!!!
just you
since i have seen NO ONE say it……
SKANDAR KEYNES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that pic above is NOT good pic of him. at all. but hes such a good actor and i luv him! GO SKANDIE
Tom Felton do look like Dakota..he could play Alec..
TOM ,TOM ,TOM !! if robert came from harry potter TOM felton could play Alec perfectly DAKOTA AND TOM they are so similar…it is perfect
I say Skandar Keynes (if i spelt it right)!! He was an ah-ma-zing actor in Narnia! I always pictured both Jane and Alec with brown hair but Alec's a little curly. I personally don't really like Dakota, but I think she'll do well in this movie! GO SKANDAR!
I think that Tom should play Alec ('cause he looks like Dakota)
Or Gaspard ('cause he looks more like a guy from the last centuary with that mustache)
I think Gaspard or Tom should play Alec. They have the brotherly sort of resemblance to Dakota:) (As a HP fan… I would like to see Tom there – he is a natural at the antagonist roles)
I think alex would be good as the new born with victoria in breaking dawn , this is because he looks too old to be her twin and he has totally got the beautiful look goin on, but i think that freddie should do it because they wer meant to have brown hair and also you wouldn't think of him as the guy of charlie and the chocolate factory because he has aged.
all of the guys are alot older than her. shouldnt he be fifteen too? if he should play her twin…?
yes he is not tom felton I want that it is liam aiken
i personally think that i would be a good choice for alec
i personally think that i would be good for alec
i think decota and tom look really alike.. could totally pass for twins.
But i think freddie highmore has just got that vampire look about him (:
yeah they would be perfect !!!!
Alex Pettyfer!! His name is even close to Alec! Just like Alex Rider too!
Tom Felton does look like Dakota Fanning, but he's the only with blonde hair in that row, so maybe that's why they look more alike?!
Otherwise Skandar Keynes, I was totally crazy about him and Will Moseley in the Narnia movies!!
But all of them would be okay, except for the 4th guy – i've never even heard of him!
tom felton could play aleci guess but he looks alot diffrent now
i think remy thorne should play alec because he is badass.
me too. remy thorne is hot and badass. C'mon! he is so EVIL vampiire type.
who the hell is remy thorne? blake woodruff is e better choice.
i hate twilight cuz edward and bella are both ugly.
i hate twilight cuz edward and bella are both ugly.
umm i dont think any one who has already been in a big movie or tv show should be picked because it wont feel right we might think of them in a diffrent way and it will ruin the movie we should get newer fresher actors and actresses
I dont think ANY of them should play Alec, I think Liam Ackin should play him. And Jodelle Ferland to play Jane.
Tom Felton is more look like Dakota Fanning.
Both Tom and Dakota are have same hair's color..
Gaspard Ulliel. He's got the perfect Vampire look, mysterious and mean looking. He could lighten his hair, and biingo! I adore this actor.
there iz speechmarks st the start but none at the end look 4 urself
i think skander keynes should play the role of alec
i think that the best person to play Alec would def. be SKandar Keynes!
i mean have you seen him ? hes extremely good looking and so are vampires. also have you seen his acting ? great..? i think so. plus i LOVE him !! ♥
personally i think skandar keynes should play alec,
!
hes an amazing actor ! have you seen narnia ! ♥
he very good looking, and has an english accent !
i loveee Skandar ♥
Alexander luwig should play alec
what's weird is that alec is my brother i chose tom felton
