New Moon Wolf Pack Confirmed by Summit

new moon wolf pack tribe Summit has issued a press release confirming earlier rumored news of the identity of the wolf pack in the New Moon movie. The confirmed cast is notably missing female recruit Tinsel Korey–rumored to play Emily–and only list the male members of the cast.

Los Angeles, CA — March 23, 2009 — Summit Entertainment announced today that Native American/First Nation actors Chaske Spencer, Bronson Pelletier, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Tyson Houseman have signed on to star as the members of the wolf pack in THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON. In the film, the wolf pack defends humans against vampires although they have a tribal history intricately entwined with Edward Cullen and his family. The wolf pack members will join Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and fellow wolf pack member Taylor Lautner in the film directed by Chris Weitz which will be released domestically November 20, 2009.

In THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON, Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) is devastated by the abrupt departure of her vampire love, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) but her spirit is rekindled by her growing friendship with the irresistible Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner). Suddenly she finds herself drawn into the world of the werewolves, ancestral enemies of the vampires, and finds her loyalties tested.

Each member of the wolf pack is of Native decent. Spencer is Lakota (Sioux), Pelletier is Cree-Metis, Meraz is Purepecha (Tarasco), Gordon is Hualapai, and Houseman, who was discovered at an open casting call, is Cree. Casting of the wolf pack was overseen by award-winning casting director Rene Haynes who is well-known for her work on Native projects ranging from DANCES WITH WOLVES to BURY MY HEART AT WOUNDED KNEE.

The action-packed, modern day vampire love story and blockbuster success of the first film in the series entitled TWILIGHT was released in theatres on November 21, 2008 grossing $60.9 million domestically during its first weekend. To date the film has grossed nearly $380 million worldwide. TWILIGHT was released on DVD, Blu-ray and VOD this past Saturday, March 21st and sold over 3 million DVD units in its first day of release making it one of the top five best first day DVD releases over the past two years.

    What about Tinsel Korey as Emily?

    ew, I just can't bring myself to think sam is a good choice.

    Now we just need to wait to find out the rest of the cast for The Volturi :)

    what's the big secret of who's gonna play Leah Clearwater?
  • stupid lamb
    i agree with ashley.. they couldve picked someone better than that guy for sam...
  • nomesters
    maybe she isn't in the wolf pack so they didn't announce her? I dunno, but I am pretty sure she is in it. At least, I hope she is. She seems perfect for the role. (They are already cutting Leah out of the movie, please not Emily too)
  • Destined
    I agree Jen. I'm so glad they are staying true to the book and honoring the Native American culture. That is the most key and respectful thing about casting the pack because they are Native. They see that its more important on background and who is going to emotionally bring these characters to life than just casting because of looks and size because that would be so shallow. Good job Summit Ent. Now we just need the Volturi cast. Btw, I wonder who Edi was talking about when he said he is so excited about a new addition to the cast that he can't talk about yet? Hmm.
  • Destined
    Guys stop being negative about the Sam character. You don't know what he can do and they obviously picked him because of the older look, which has to be obvious. That's is what help him stand out as the leader and this guy does look older than all of them. As long as he portrays Sam well, its fine with me.
  • Grasshopper
    Exciting! I hope they confirm Tinsel soon. She's really pretty and I think she'd be a great Emily. In regards to Leah, I know they said she was cut but I also heard that there had been some rewrites to the script and Leah was now in, if only in the background. But if that were true, I'm sure the same would be said about Seth...
    Hmm. Now I'm confused.

    Come on Summit! Release the cast list!
  • Grasshopper
    I agree 100%!
  • Tiffany
    Yay!!!!! I'm so excited. I'll get to see some good looking Natives on the screen
    since Eddie Spears. =P This is great... They're all hot and Please Summit

    don't you dare think about recasting... Now all we need is that good looking

    wolf girl (Leah Clearwater) to join in the picture... Like me. lol. I'll wait in line like

    everyone else. But hey I wouldn't want to take the attention away from the guys.

    I mean look at them...
  • pauline fron france
    what happened the guy playing Sam in Twilight??
  • Jacqueline
    FINALLY!!! ive been waiting the longest time for them to make an official announcement. im glad that all the actors are of Native decent. thats makes them authentic. haha. the guy who plays paul is perfect.
  • Grasshopper
    Oh my god!! Jonathan Rhys-Meyers for Caius would be EPIC! I don't know why that thought had never crossed my mind.

  • C
    I agree I think Summit didn't list her as part of the "wolf pack" because Emily is not a wolf, she's is Sam's Fiance and he is a wolf.
  • daniella
    maybe they cut out leah because she has a small part in new moon she might be cast when they are gonna film eclipse or breaking dawn if they will film it!!!
  • nomesters
    wait where did you hear that about Leah? That's exciting!!
  • Ashleylj13
    ew, I just can't bring myself to think sam is a good choice.
  • hear hear
  • C
    I'm gonna be honest, not sure I agree with that guy playing Sam or the Houseman kid
  • Grasshopper
    Yeah... I had always envisioned him a little older. I sort of saw Jason Isaacs in my head with him. But I can totally see where you are coming from, particularly when I think of The Tudors. Plus, let's be honest, Jonathan is a major hottie! I wonder who they WILL choose.
    GRRR! The wait is killing me.
  • Yay :D
    Now we just need to wait to find out the rest of the cast for The Volturi :)
  • lovevampolves
    yeah i know i want to know who The Volturi will be
  • ozflipz
    what's the big secret of who's gonna play Leah Clearwater?
  • she's not gonna be in New Moon, Rosenberg confirmed that, she will be in Eclipse, not in this movie.
  • ozflipz
    I know Leah wasnt mention much in New Moon. I think Seth & Leah should get an introduction in New Moon. Harry Clearwater died in New Moon. That's when Jacob told Edward on the phone that Bella was in the funeral.
  • C
    Leah's only in New Moon for like a split second so maybe that cut it out of the movie or they'll do like they did with Sam in Twilight, where as readers we know Sam delivered that line but in the movie Solomon was credited as Sam Uley.
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    OMG . . . you all are sooo right. He would be one smokin hot volturi. But I can totally see him playing Demetri or Felix . . . the 3 main volturi are ancient looking, not old but they don't look as attractive as the other do.
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    How exciting! But I think they are having way too much funny playing with the emotions of the fans . . . all of whom are dying to know the cast list!
  • Grasshopper
    Because of my obession with all things Twilight, I was looking around a lot of sites. I can't exactly remember where I found it. But I definitely know that I found SOMETHING that said that Melissa Rosenberg rewrote some stuff in the script and added Leah in.
    But who knows?

    I hope it's true. I know that Leah isn't HUGE in New Moon, but she is sort of important. I mean, Eclipse would be awkward if she just happened to be a wolf without ever having been introduced before. Am I right?

    And if this is true (fingers crossed!!!) let's hope they pick a good actress and not just a filler until Eclipse. Someone that they plan on keeping, I mean.
  • stupid lamb
    i agree with ashley.. they couldve picked someone better than that guy for sam...
  • nomesters
    Yeah, while I understand the need to pick the vital stuff from the book in order to make the movie move forward and not drag too much, it is important to have introductions to the characters. She becomes a more important character as the books go on. Seth/Leah are pretty important, and they need to be cast well.
  • Grasshopper
    Yeah, particularly because there are people who see the movies and don't read the books (BOO! Read people!).
    Finally! I have found someone who agrees with me about Leah. Sure, she was a bitter shrew, and kind of irritating, but she had a reason! And then in Breaking Dawn, you see SOOOOOOOOOO much more of her.

    I have to practically beat my friends, who still are kind of iffy about her.

    See, in Eclipse, I finally felt some compassion for Rosalie and all of my irritance with her moved to Leah. Then in Breaking Dawn it switched back... I couldn't help it, Rose just irritated the hell out of me.
  • Grasshopper
    Plus, they're casting Harry, so why wouldn't they cast his children? He DOES die for a reason!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    I agree. Either of them would be great! Idk about Aro, Marcus, and Caius. The girls at work and I had discussed how Antonio Banderas would be good as one of them. It's a long shot . . . but he did play an awesome vampire in "interview w/ a vampire."


    I just wish they'd put the dang cast list out already. Torture . . . they are enjoying torturing the fans!

  • OCDJenni
    I don't even have a guess on who Edi was talking about but I totally agree your comment. We want these characters to be brought to life in the truest form possible. As long as they can do that, their looks shouldn't matter.
  • Natasha
    I actually have a guess at who Edi was talking about. There was a contest on Twilightthemovie.com, where you had to make a video about why you should be in New Moon! Maybe that's what he was talking about. I can't wait for the results... i entered!

  • I actually agree with you about Leah. They could introduce her, as they do in the book, so she will at least be known in the viewer's mind. It could be confusing to just throw her and Seth into Eclipse without seeing them before.

    Plus Leah is my favorite chick of the saga. :-D I loved her!
  • nomesters
    Yeah, while I understand the need to pick the vital stuff from the book in order to make the movie move forward and not drag too much, it is important to have introductions to the characters.

  • Grasshopper

  • I have to say that my love for Leah comes from my life experience. I totally understood her pain over Sam. To be left for someone else hurts like hale. Had I been in her shoes I would have acted the same with the pack. A type of "feel the pain you caused" revenge. I found her (hopefully I will not be killed for this) to be one of the stronger, if not strongest, females in the saga. I am still angry that Leah didn't have her happy ending!

    Anyway I was seriously looking forward to her being in the movie. But if they are casting Harry *crosses fingers for Wes Studi* then they should have Seth and Leah.
  • Grasshopper
    No one can say for sure that they wouldn't act like Leah did in her situtation. She was stuck between a rock (Sam and the pack) and a hard place (Emily and Sam together) but Stephenie said that, after Breaking Dawn, Leah was happier than she had been in a long time and that having Jacob as a friend helped her a lot.
    But, I agree, I wish she'd gotten her happy ending. I made one up for myself to make myself feel better.
  • Grasshopper
    And was it only me that thought that Jake and Leah were going to end up together?
    Just thought I'd ask.
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    I thought it was going to happen too between Jake and Leah. It seemed to be going that direction for a while anyway. In my mind I also imagine Leah getting a happy ending. IDK . . . out-growing the wolf thing and becoming a mommy maybe!
  • Oh I thought that too!! I was actually hoping that it would happen. Two wounded souls finding solace with each other. Then Jake finally imprinted.
    Poor Leah was stuck between the rock and a hard place. I actually loved the evolution of her character. We see her at first as the bitter shrew until Breaking Dawn where she has finally reached a healthier place.
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    I also loved how she went up into the Cullen house and told Bella off! What balls that took!!!! And so protective of Jacob too.
  • I adored that part! That is when I thought there could be something between them. I cheered so loud because I am sure that she told Bella all of the things running through my mind. It took some major balls for Leah to do that.
    I couldn't help myself. I felt so horrible for Jacob and I was so angry at Bella.
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    Yes. I was angry at Bella too through-out that part. I was glad Leah gotta a little piece of her. :)
  • Grasshopper
    That was awesome!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    I totally agree with what you are saying here about Leah. It is major that she and Seth both leave the main pack to back Jacob up in what most of them consider his moment of insanity! She will need to be cast well. And I do feel for she and Rose. They each have such strong back stories . . . how can you not feel for them? And while I would've liked to have kicked Rose in the head a couple of times in BD, I get her (it took me 6 years to conceive my first son).

    It's kind of like Jacob . . . I liked him in New Moon, loathed him in Eclipse, and developed a newfound respect and love for him in BD. You really do have to read all 4 books to completely understand the saga that is Twilight!
  • OOH tweter were have you been/ I have missed your comments as we are on such the same Level! Lol I though you weren't coming back? How did the party go?

    I felt the same reading the books, I liked Jacob in New Moon, Loathed him in Eclipse and then Loved him in Breaking Dawn, in that book I found him really funny, and I loved the love-hate between him and Rosalie! Especially when Rosalie went to get him food and made him a dog bowl with Fido written on it, and then he threw it and hit her on the head, I rolled around with laughter!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    Busy, busy weekend!!! I didn't disappear on you!

    The party was awesome. I actually got my copy of Twilight via fed ex Saturday morning but didn't open it til the party Sunday. I had 10 women from ages 12-33 at the house. We had good food and Twilight trivia before we watched the movie. We had the surround sound up obnoxiously loud and still had a hard time hearing the movie because we were all talking at once about what we liked, didn't like, should've been added or deleted, etc . . . it was a freaking BLAST!

    It has inspired us to start movie Sunday a couple of times a month. Our next movie is going to be Dirty Dancing . . .
  • Ah I love that film! One off my all time favourites, me and my daughter who is 8 and also called Leah have movie night on a fri, as Sophie goes to bed early, we both snuggle up on the sofa with a big bag off popcorn and a duvet, we call it our duvet-day Lol. Its fab and I love it! Thats brilliant that your party went excellently well, Roll on the 6th April til I get my copy, I will be unavailable for at least 24hrs within receipt off getting it LMAO
  • Chris10
    Yes how was your party?

    That sounds so incredibly fun! I'm glad it worked out okay and you had a good time! Movie Sundays sounds fun too.

    I watched it several times over the weekend but Sunday I watched it with my son with the comentary on and he did NOT like it at first. He kept saying "mommy, they're making fun of Twilight!" He didn't like them making fun of his Edward! But after I explained who was talking he understood and laughed hysterically when Edward says "what do we eat?" and Rob says "cheeseburgers" LOL!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    stupid computer!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    I haven't watched it with the commentary yet. I was sorely disappointed that so many vital scenes from the book ended up on the cutting room floor. What a waste!

    My 4yr old son was like - momma, it's the Edward "pampire." He watched parts of it with us, but exited the room when we women got too loud for him (mom, I can't hear the movie). He's also taken to wearing his Halloween vampire teeth around the house, which I find adorable!

    I was so thrilled that it was in FULL COLOR that I could hardly stand it! I've been watching a downloaded copy on my computer since January but the color isn't very good on it. And the surround sound made it awesome too!
  • Chris10
    My son is 8 and is Team Edward all the way. I hope New Moon isn't too scary or intense for him to get to know Jacob better. The vampire teeth are hysterical!! Mine wears a sweat band on his arm with the Cullen Crest on it. He loves the director's notebook and the movie companion alot too. He probably tells all his friends at school how obsessed with Twilight his mommy is!! I hope to take him to La Push and Forks one day.

    Yes I agree about some of the cut scenes. I have a better feeling about New Moon and I hope it lives up to the hype. And yes sitting in my living room watching Twilight in the comfort of my PJs was the BEST!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09

    It's not just you, the site is acting weird for me too. I still got your message via my e-mail when you first posted . I agree, New Moon may be too much for the youngsters. We'll see I guess.

    since Eddie Spears. =P This is great... They're all hot and Please Summit
    don't you dare think about recasting... Now all we need is that good looking
    wolf girl (Leah Clearwater) to join in the picture... Like me. lol. I'll wait in line like
    everyone else. But hey I wouldn't want to take the attention away from the guys.
    I mean look at them...

    Yeah... I'm still not sold on Dakota. The first time I read Jane, I saw Jodelle Ferland and, even now, I still see her. I am not, however, going to rag on Dakota. She's a good actress for someone so young and I believe that she will do that part justice. We shall have to see.
  • Grasshopper
    And was it only me that thought that Jake and Leah were going to end up together?
    Just thought I'd ask.
  • Grasshopper
    Ditto, but I'm doing it to myself.
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    IDK either. All of my friends think she'll be great but like you, I'm not sold. I'm annoyed tonight by those on one of the other posts on this site who feel the need to reinvent New Moon and virtually take out Jacob and the wolves . . . grrr! They gotta stay true to this story regardless of how "horrible" it's going to be for some that Edward isn't the key figure in the movie. I'm personally excited to see the development of the wolves as they DO have a major part in the outcome of the story in BD.
  • pauline fron france
    what happened the guy playing Sam in Twilight??
  • his manager told him, the day they spoke to the Chaske, that he wasn't reprising his role in New Moon, or so he says on his Myspace..
  • pauline from france
    it kinda sucks! I mean....they could have kept him the way they did with taylor lautner. it's just weird now. but anyway, he wasn't called "sam" by anyone in the movie, so if the actor playing his part wasn't tagged as Sam but just as a Quileute, he could have stayed....it's just too bad when you're expecting everything to be the same for the sequel and somehow, you find some changes! same thing for the other kid playing Jacob's friend. Maybe they weren't good enough or as charismatic as the new ones.....what do you think?
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    I thought it was going to happen too between Jake and Leah. It seemed to be going that direction for a while anyway. In my mind I also imagine Leah getting a happy ending. IDK . . . out-growing the wolf thing and becoming a mommy maybe!
  • "Irresistable Jacob Black" dang skippy! I love the wording!
    I have seen a few films with the actor who plays Sam and he is really good. He can pull off that confident leader aspect of Sam. Remember in the beginning he is an apparent gang leader until Jacob transforms. I think he just has the look of Sam. I hope that Tinsel is confirmed soon. I will have my original Emily. YAY!
    Now that my beloved Pack is announced bring on my villians! I can't wait to see who they cast for The Volturi. I'm hoping to see Jonathan Rhys-Meyers for Caius but I doubt it.
  • Grasshopper
    Oh my god!! Jonathan Rhys-Meyers for Caius would be EPIC! I don't know why that thought had never crossed my mind.
  • Wouldn't it though! I have been a fan for many years now. Jonathan has always been my Caius since the description in New Moon. He has that sinister vibe to him. With the red eyes and what not of the Volturi he would be scary as hale.
  • Grasshopper
    Yeah... I had always envisioned him a little older. I sort of saw Jason Isaacs in my head with him. But I can totally see where you are coming from, particularly when I think of The Tudors. Plus, let's be honest, Jonathan is a major hottie! I wonder who they WILL choose.
    GRRR! The wait is killing me.
  • Jason Isaacs would amazing!! I hadn't thought of him before. I have been a fan of his since The Patriot. I could just see Jonathan, especially during the stand off in Breaking Dawn, with bright red eyes and his fury as protrayed in The Tudors. Almost gives me the chills! I think he would own it. His performance in The Tudors (I watch for Henry Cavill as well) sorta confirmed him, without a doubt, as my Caius. Plus, as you said, he is a hottie!
  • Chris10
    "I'M THE KING OF ENGLAND" Yeah I can totally see J. Rhys-Meyers in the Volturi. Henry too. They're both great actors and very hard to look at either! What a great suggestion!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    OMG . . . you all are sooo right. He would be one smokin hot volturi. But I can totally see him playing Demetri or Felix . . . the 3 main volturi are ancient looking, not old but they don't look as attractive as the others do.
  • I could see him as Demetri or Felix. I sorta hoped that Henry Cavill would be cast as either Demetri or Felix. Just so we could have him in the movie. I kind of forgot about the main volturi being ancient as I read.
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    I agree. Either of them would be great! Idk about Aro, Marcus, and Caius. The girls at work and I had discussed how Antonio Banderas would be good as one of them. It's a long shot . . . but he did play an awesome vampire in "interview w/ a vampire."

  • Hale no. I can barely contain myself while watching The Tudors :D

    Antonio was so yummy in "interview w/ a vampire" and I could see him as one of the leaders too. Summit is trying to torture us. They seem to take a sick pleasure with it. Shame on Summit. I need more than Dakota Fanning.

    Yeah... I'm still not sold on Dakota. The first time I read Jane, I saw Jodelle Ferland and, even now, I still see her. I am not, however, going to rag on Dakota. She's a good actress for someone so young and I believe that she will do that part justice. We shall have to see.
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    IDK either. All of my friends think she'll be great but like you, I'm not sold. I'm annoyed tonight by those on one of the other posts on this site who feel the need to reinvent New Moon and virtually take out Jacob and the wolves . . . grrr! They gotta stay true to this story regardless of how "horrible" it's going to be for some that Edward isn't the key figure in the movie. I'm personally excited to see the development of the wolves as they DO have a major part in the outcome of the story in BD.
  • I am with you all. I am not sold on Dakota, although I find her to be an amazing actress.
    I am rather irritated at people wanting to remove Jacob and the wolves as well. Everytime I see a post that claims the story is only about Edward/Bella I want to scream. It is SO much more than a love story. Jacob and the wolves are just as important (to me) as Edward and the vampires. Without each aspect then where is our story? I hope that sense it's rather late. I'm surprised I can type a coherant sentence!

    I should sooo be in bed . . . it's 2am here but I couldn't sleep tonight . . . I'm surprised I'm making much sense either! It's been good chatting . . . I'm sure we'll "see" more of each other in days to come . . . I'm off to bed now!
  • Grasshopper
    The people who are like "Rob, Rob, Rob... No one will want to see it if we don't have more Rob!!!" Yeah, those people annoy me. If they are true fans of the book, they shouldn't care. The whole point is that he's GONE!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    you should read my posts on the whole new moon reservations . . . blah, blah, blah post. i went on a little tangent about what New Moon and the saga as a whole is truly about!
  • Grasshopper
    I did and I agree. As a literary buff myself (I'm working towards a Theatre/Literature double major) I totally agree with you.
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    I'm starting grad school next spring for my degree in English Lit so I can teach on the college level. I love that Stephenie's series of books have got young readers and adult readers alike excited about reading again!!! It's awesome!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    I also loved how she went up into the Cullen house and told Bella off! What balls that took!!!! And so protective of Jacob too.
  • Jacqueline
    FINALLY!!! ive been waiting the longest time for them to make an official announcement. im glad that all the actors are of Native decent. thats makes them authentic. haha. the guy who plays paul is perfect.

  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    Yes. I was angry at Bella too through-out that part. I was glad Leah gotta a little piece of her. :)
  • BAM6AM88
    ay summit. haha they need to just release the cast already!
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    How exciting! But I think they are having way too much funny playing with the emotions of the fans . . . all of whom are dying to know the cast list!

    And I do think the guy cast as Sam will do an excellent job. He has a more mature look to him which is important for that character.
  • I love all the wolves that have been cast, like I said in another post that (more Alex) can be a bad Doggy for me any day LMAO

    I think the guy that was picked for Sam is an excellent choice, I can so see him carrying Bella through the woods!
  • hear hear
  • she's not gonna be in New Moon, Rosenberg confirmed that, she will be in Eclipse, not in this movie.
  • his manager told him, the day they spoke to the Chaske, that he wasn't reprising his role in New Moon, or so he says on his Myspace..
  • deedee81
    OOH tweter were have you been/ I have missed your comments as we are on such the same Level! Lol I though you weren't coming back? How did the party go?


    I felt the same reading the books, I liked Jacob in New Moon, Loathed him in Eclipse and then Loved him in Breaking Dawn, in that book I found him really funny, and I loved the love-hate between him and Rosalie! Especially when Rosalie went to get him food and made him a dog bowl with Fido written on it, and then he threw it and hit her on the head, I rolled around with laughter!

  • pauline from france
    it kinda sucks! I mean....they could have kept him the way they did with taylor lautner. it's just weird now. but anyway, he wasn't called "sam" by anyone in the movie, so if the actor playing his part wasn't tagged as Sam but just as a Quileute, he could have stayed....it's just too bad when you're expecting everything to be the same for the sequel and somehow, you find some changes! same thing for the other kid playing Jacob's friend. Maybe they weren't good enough or as charismatic as the new ones.....what do you think?
  • OCDJenni
    I agree too!
  • OCDJenni
    I don't even have a guess on who Edi was talking about but I totally agree your comment. We want these characters to be brought to life in the truest form possible. As long as they can do that, their looks shouldn't matter.
  • OCDJenni
    I'm just glad that we finally got some official word from Summit. 'Bout time! lol
  • C
    I agree I think Summit didn't list her as part of the "wolf pack" because Emily is not a wolf, she's is Sam's Fiance and he is a wolf.
  • i love rob
    I'm glad to see that Summit has confirmed our wolf pack!!! I hope they also confirm Tinsel.....I think she would be the perfect Emily!!! I think the guy that they picked for Sam was a god choice. Remember, he's suppose to be older than the rest of the pack. He definitely has the older and wiser look about him!


    Good job Summit! Now, they can start working on the rest of the Volturi!!!! Hopefully we'll start hearing something soon!!!!!
  • C
    Leah's only in New Moon for like a split second so maybe that cut it out of the movie or they'll do like they did with Sam in Twilight, where as readers we know Sam delivered that line but in the movie Solomon was credited as Sam Uley.
  • Chris10
    Yes how was your party?
  • Chris10
    "I'M THE KING OF ENGLAND" Yeah I can totally see J. Rhys-Meyers in the Volturi. Henry too. They're both great actors and very hard to look at either! What a great suggestion!
  • The guy in the poster above between the girl & Taylor bothers me. He doesn't look like he fits in properly with the other pack members. Not sure why but he just doesn't look like he belongs to the same tribe as the rest at all to me. Maybe that is just a bad photo of him. Other than that I think the pack looks awesome!

    Busy, busy weekend!!! I didn't disappear on you!


    The party was awesome. I actually got my copy of Twilight via fed ex Saturday morning but didn't open it til the party Sunday. I had 10 women from ages 12-33 at the house. We had good food and Twilight trivia before we watched the movie. We had the surround sound up obnoxiously loud and still had a hard time hearing the movie because we were all talking at once about what we liked, didn't like, should've been added or deleted, etc . . . it was a freaking BLAST!



    It has inspired us to start movie Sunday a couple of times a month. Our next movie is going to be Dirty Dancing . . .

    That sounds so incredibly fun! I'm glad it worked out okay and you had a good time! Movie Sundays sounds fun too.


    I watched it several times over the weekend but Sunday I watched it with my son with the comentary on and he did NOT like it at first. He kept saying "mommy, they're making fun of Twilight!" He didn't like them making fun of his Edward! But after I explained who was talking he understood and laughed hysterically when Edward says "what do we eat?" and Rob says "cheeseburgers" LOL!

  • Lyric
    Who's that weird looking guy in the corners name? PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, don't say Seth.
  • CullenFan
    It's Quil
  • i love the wolf pack except for the guy who plays quil he dosent look like the way i imagined quil at all but thats my opion others might disagree but i just dont like the way he looks for quil thats all
  • that_stupid_lamb
    someone had made a comment saying he looked like a jewish nerd!!!! idk i think he'll be an alright Quil... i mean i never really saw Quil looking the way he looks...not that he's not cute, he has a certain charm about him... I just didn't see him as Quil.. I always imagined Bronson.... hmm.. the more and more i think about it though the more i could see him being a 'wing-man' for Taylor
  • tweeter76 IAMSWITZERLAND-1/09
    i actually agree. quil is described as having a muscular chest but shorter than embry and kind of burly looking. idk . . .
  • mljhasOCD
    Like the rest of you, I am really curious about the rest of the cast! So very happy about the confirmation of the Wolves though!!!

    Mr "King of England" would be amazing as one of the Volturi...brilliant and great suggestion!!!
  • tara
    im sorry to say but i think taylor lautner is still better than all these guys. hehe.
  • tara
    btw they shouldve kept embry from twilight. he seemed like an embry. and a sam.
  • Wolf Girl
    i dont know about the rest of the actors cause ive never seen them, but i am hoping to see good things. the only ones i think are perfect are Jacob, Paul, Quil, annd jared...&& emily

    the rest ( which is just sam and embry) i think they should of kept the same actors from twilight to pla y them causwe already have them in our headsas embry and sam so i think its jut disappointing that there are going to be whole new actors...it'll just give us a new character to think of....its like if they change Bella from kristen stewart to someone else, it'll just be annoying..
    Just my oppinion =]
  • Matt
    Yea sory guys I forgot that Tinsel Korey aint an actual wolf lol but yea she is Sams fiance so yea I am sure she is in her singing voice is good acting wise I dunno yet.!!!!!!!!!!!
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    Wow how exciting!!!
    The wolf pack is confirmed... I can't wait 2 see NM!!!!!
  • MiryBabii28
    I think they did a good job choosing the wolf pack.
    :D
    i can't wait to know who is playing the Volturi.
  • emma
    TINSEL KOREY'S MYSPACE IS NOT DECKED IN NEW MOON/TWILIGHT STUFF ANYMORE
  • Ren
    I really do not agree with some of the wolf pack casting. I mean sure their of Native descent but I wanted like full blood natives. And these guys just don't look native to me. I should know since I am full Native.
    It's really annoying. I always imagined Quil as my cousin. If Anyone would like to see what my cousin looks like you can email me.
  • Ren
    Oh, snap they have Harry Potter. Most of these guys don't even look Native. And most of them aren't they have Native descent. Oh my gosh. I wanted FULL Natives with Mutton stew in their blood. My cousin would have been good for one of the wolf pack parts. Go to www.myspace.com/oliviapaquin and click on pics and you'll see my cousins pic.
  • cullenist4life
    AnnaLynn is nothing like a quiluete tribe girl
    why would they pick her. and most of the boys on that quiluete tribe new moon poster are uh-gly
  • Sarah
    if she is emily then he cant be sam
