The first pics of the ancient Volturi clan from Twilight: New Moon have been revealed.

The official New Moon website has got first looks at twins Alec and Jane played by Cameron Bright and Dakota Fanning, Christopher Heyerdahl's Marcus, Michael Sheen's Aro (director Chris Weitz is giving Sheen a big thumbs up for his performance - gracious, cultured but mildly insane!) and Jamie Campbell-Bower's Caius.

Fanning's Jane remains blonde, rather than having dyed her hair dark to match Stephanie Meyer's description, but she does look the part.

In a conservatively cut dress and cape around her shoulders, Jane is staring intensely down the barrel of the camera. I must admit I had reservations about  Dakota playing Jane but she seems to be carrying off the ancient vampire look quite well. To see how well we'll have to wait until November when New Moon is released.

Cameron Bright looks decidedly creepy with his red eyes, eyebrows knitted together, a lopsided smirk and his arms folded defensively across his chest.

All in all the Volturi clan look pretty sharp, but they're going to have to do some work to convince Cullen fans that they are the superior vampire's - let's face it with Edward on your side you've got a distinct advantage.

For more pics of the Volturi clan go to newmoonmovie.org website.

What do you think about the Volturi clan? Do they live up to your expectations? Have your say on the Twilight message board below.

    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!!
