This finale has already become one of the most anticipated series endings in cinematic history. Who would have imagined that a bunch of teenage vampires would steal the thunder from more classical movie characters like spies, lovers and aliens.
Hollywood's young actors and actresses have been pulling strings and calling in favors to be cast in "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn". We now know the final cast and crew of this two-part finale to the series.
The Role of Bella and Edward's Daughter
In the final part of "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn", Bella and Edward have a young daughter. This has become perhaps the most coveted role in Hollywood recently. The author of "The Twilight Saga", Stephenie Meyer, has announced that Mackenzie Foy has been cast for this part. The lucky nine-year-old will have a vampire daddy played by Robert Pattinson and an anguished mother, played by Kristen Stewart.
Summit Entertainment has announced that it has finalized the actors and actresses for the Denali clan as well. The head of the clan will be played by Christian Camargo and the females of the clan will be Mia Maestro, MyAnna Buring, Casey LaBow and Maggie Grace.
Blood-Sucking Vampires from the World Over
The company has also finalized the cast for the Egyptian, Amazonian, Romanian and Irish covens, as well as the European and American nomadic vampires. The Amazonian Coven will have Judi Shekoni playing the role of Zafrina and Tracey Heggins playing Senna. The Egyptian Coven will include Andrea Gabriel as Kebi, Omar Metwally in the role of Amun, Angela Sarafyan as Tia and Rami Malek as Benjamin. The Irish Coven will feature Lisa Howard (Siobhan), Marlane Barnes (Maggie) and Patrick Brennan (Liam). In the Romanian Coven, we will see Noel Fisher as Vladimir and Guri Weinberg as Stefan.
The American Nomads will be a motley crew comprising Toni Trucks as Mary, Lee Pace as Garrett, Bill Tangradi as Randall, Valorie Curry as Charlotte and Erik Odom as Peter. The European Nomads will be a group of actors headed by Joe Anderson, who plays the role of Alistair.
Production work will begin in November under the director Bill Condon. We will be able to see Part One on 18 November 2011 and the second part on 16 November 2012. In fact, the director is not going to take a whole year to shoot the second part. Both parts of the film will be shot together, but post-production and franchise-related activities will take a year to complete.
