The ‘Twilight’ B-List Arrives In Vancouver
With filming to begin shortly on the third installment of The Twilight Saga, the support cast of newest sequel film The Twilight Saga: Eclipse have begun making their way to Vancouver, BC this week in preparation. While the big stars — Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner — prolly won’t be flying in to town until the last minute, the support staff has to arrive early. Here are pics of Kellan Lutz (who plays Emmet Cullen), Ashley Greene (who plays Alice Cullen), Xavier Samuel (who plays Riley, Victoria’s newborn vampire) and the newly cast Bryce Dallas Howard (who plays Victoria, taking over for Rachelle Lefevre who was unceremoniously fired from the role just last week) arriving in Vancouver last night:

As you may already know, Kellan and Ashley play members of the central vampire family (the Cullens) in the film and Bryce plays the evil vampire Victoria who is hellbent on killing Bella Swan (played by Kristen Stewart) for her role in the killing of her beloved companion James (played in Twilight by Cam Gigandet) who was actually slaughtered by hero vamp Edward (played by Robert Pattinson) while saving Bella. Xavier will play Riley, a newborn vampire created by Victoria to lead her army of vamps against the Cullens and their tenuous werewolf friends (lead by Jacob Black, played by Taylor Lautner) who are banded together to protect the life of the very human Bella. Ye gods, you just *know* a story this epic is going to be AWESOME! Well, we’ll see. The other castmembers of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse should be streaming into Vancouver all week long … so get ready, Canucks. The vampires are coming.

insane….I feel like they just left there. That’s got to be feeling a bit redundant for them too. I didn’t realize the were starting so soon….that makes them dumping Rachelle even more ridiculous, its so last minute if she was to be in Vancouver today!

I, for one, am excited to see what Bryce Dallas Howard can do with the role of Victoria. I loved her as Rosalind in As You Like It, and while the Twilight saga certainly isn’t Shakespeare, I’ll bet she can do great things with the role. So exciting!

As much as I do like her, I’m so pissed about Bryce Dallas Howard. What a mistake losing Rachelle was- she was perfect as Victoria. Eclipse wont be as good because of it.

BDH- (ugh) they should have just hired a porn star- at least then you have a “credible actress”
August 4th, 2009 at 11:59 am
Now Anne, let’s not show jealousy by being tasteless with your choice of words. The producers of Twilight probably never saw your porno.

that is terribly unfortunate – for them….i worked my ass off!
August 4th, 2009 at 1:23 pm
I reckon you worked a lot of things…. off.

Thats not very nice Trent to refer to them as B List.
I can’t wait for this movie!! All the actors are great and work hard

I am really surprised to read that the cast is already starting to arrive in Vanvouver. I hadn’t given up on Rachelle returning. Bryce is a great actress in all, but it’s dirty pool to bring in a new actress now.

@joe — It’s clearly a joke but just out of curiosity … how should the supporting cast be referred to?
August 4th, 2009 at 5:55 pm
@Trent- I think Supporting Cast is fine. Or, are you thinking of making up a group name for them? Something like Fellow Blood Suckers? Sparkle Squad? lol :)
August 4th, 2009 at 6:08 pm
Or you could just call them ‘The Talented actors/actress of the Twilight saga’ *nod* that sounds good. XD Kidding, no one hurt me.
Anyways, I really don’t understand why Bryce Dallas Howard will be there, when she didn’t actually act in this movie as Victoria. Maybe just so they have a ‘Victoria’ there? Hm..
August 4th, 2009 at 6:10 pm
lol oh my goodness ignore that last statement about her being there, nurgh I didn’t read that fully and for some reason thought this was for the Twilight tour ^^; I feel stupid now..

A friend of mine was on this flight and got pictures with them all. So cool.
August 5th, 2009 at 7:37 am
Xavier Samuel is hawwwwwwt :D
Can’t wait to see him in this movie!

How about instead of b list we just call them what they are? Super sexy (:
