There’s already a huge range of people that love Twilight, including a very wide range of ages. Some readers at the Deadbolt think that more mature casting for the Volturi for some of the roles will allow a more diverse audience to enjoy New Moon without feeling any guilt for showing up and being a fan–
“I know, I may be a little older than the average Twilighter, but I am a true fan. I feel that we ‘Twilight Saga Moms’ should have a little older representation in the movies. Yes, we all fantasize about all the young Cullens and this can be a little disturbing (to our daughters as well as the actors). Wouldn’t it be great if we could act our age and go for something a little more … mature? The Volturi are the perfect outlet for this. Aro, Marcus and Caius should be older as should their wives. If the vampires are ‘frozen’ in time when they are transformed, who is to say that they ALL are changed before their 20th birthday? Casting a more mature Volturi will give us a legitimate excuse to show up at public events and not pretend we are there for our daughters, nieces, or our neighbor’s granddaughter… Please?!”
In direct response, another reader writes …
“I absolutely agree! I hope the casting agents realize that there is large audience (over 30+) that are big Twilight fans. We do need a little older re[pr]esentation!”
