LET US KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE MESSAGEBOARD BELOW!

After raging speculation earlier this year as to whether child actress Dakota Fanning (currently on NZ screens in The Secret Life Of Bees -  read the review here ) would be playing Jane in New Moon, it looks as if all has been revealed.

While you were sleeping, Entertainment Weekly  has had it confirmed she will in fact be taking on the role of Jane, a member of Italy's Evil Volturi in the sequel to Twilight (which is due to start filming soon)

She had been in talks since January for the role and there were rumours she'd been offered the role on the spot something which was denied at the time.

So the casting's coming together now so Twihard fans, what do you make of that?

    I am a Twilight Addict for sure! I am Team Jakeward all the way, lol. I reckon Eclipse should be the best version of all for movies... but the books kick butt much more! But if you've read the books, I don't think it matters at all whether this one will live up to expectations, cause the stories have already captured our hearts!

    Well what can I say, I am a total Twilight addict! I love the two films so far- but love the books a whole lot more! They NEED to make Breaking Dawn into 2 films. There are just sooo many amazing parts to it that so many [important] things will end up getting missed out! It is kinda essential that it's made into two films! Please, make two films!

    I ahve to say that Jacob is who I would go with because of his looks but he hasn't got the personality that Edward has. If I were Bella and Jacob had the personality of Edward you would have the best guy in the world!!
