Volturi Cast for New Moon Movie (My Dream Cast)
Below is my own dream cast for New Moon's Volturi, the head of the whole vampire clan. The Volturi is undeniably a crucial part of the Twilight series - at least the action/suspense aspect of the series. As such, I believe the success of the upcoming Twilight movies will hinge on how well the Volturi will act.
My dream cast is based on a lot of rumors and news snippets revolving around who will play who, as well as my own ideas on who should be considered.
I'm very hopeful that Chris Weitz will do a good job of casting. I was impressed with the execution of Golden Compass so I think he won't have any problems with making New Moon a dramatic and suspenseful watch.
Without further ado, here's my fan-made poster for the New Moon Movie. Please note that it's fan-made so there is no truth whatsoever to it. Enjoy!

I'm not quite sure who should play who yet, except for Dakota Fanning playing as Jane. If Gaspard Ulliel were to play as Alec, then Tom Felton is out of the picture. I don't think Tom can take on any of the other Volturi roles. I do think though that Gaspard Ulliel has the potential to play a role bigger than Alec. Whether he could be one of the Volturi leaders (Aro, Caius, Marcus) remains to be seen. I'm wondering if his age will be a hindrance to him being chosen as one of the leaders. I think he can also be a good fit for the role of Demetri as Demetri is described as being tall and lean, but again, I think it is a waste of Gaspard's talent and presence to cast him with such a small role. Stephen McHattie and Alan Rickman, should they be chosen, should, of course, be part of the group of Volturi leaders as well. I read in one site that Ben Barnes is being considered as Aro. Also a possible fit, though I'd choose Gaspard over him.
Thoughts?

I don't honestly like Dakota Fanning as Jane... She's a bit too... Idk how to say it exactly, but she's a bit too.. bubbly maybe? My pick, mainly bc she is who I saw Jane as in my head when I was reading) would be Juno Temple. I saw her in Atonement, and she had the infamous condescending look Jane is said to have. I have to say, that although I think Dakota is a wonderful actress, I think she's a little off center for my perfect Jane. Gaspard would make a wonderful Demetri though.. I think that even though it's a rather small role, he'd bring to life the whole reason for fearing Demetri (i.e. he's insanely devoted to the Volturi, and he's absolutely neurotic about doing his job correctly. The image can be brought to life by him, I feel. No passionate feelings on any of the other picks, good choices as far as I can tell. kudos!
Love your insights about the cast. After googling Juno Temple, I do believe that she is quite a good candidate. You're right about Demetri = Gaspard, Gaspard can bring life to the character. I sure wish he'd be chosen!
truthfully, i would agree with any other person that Dakota Fanning has too much of a past in too gentle of movies and suchg a role as such a satanic child would be hard, but she does have a rounded amount of work, such in the movie push, that i have reason to believe she can pull it off. really, she is an AMAZING actress and has NO problem protraying a charactor in ANY movie. GOOD LUCK! i have real hope for the WHOLE cast.
I really enjoyed the idea of Tom Felton playing a Volturi! He's perfect, great actor and deserves it!
You're good, the picture is awsome!
I'm still reading New Moon and crying a lot (particullarly because of the 3rd chapter), but I'm also smiling at certain moments. The relationship between Bella and Jake is far better than I had thought! =)
I'm from Brazil, loved your blog!
I've added it to my favorites!

@TyZ: wow! I am deeply flattered that you liked my fan made Volturi poster and you placed my blog in your favorites! It really is an honor! BTW, do you know that all the Volturi roles have been cast already? Alec was given to Cameron Bright from Ultraviolet :) You can check out the final New Moon cast here:

Oh and I'm super glad you are liking New Moon so far, it has to be my favorite book after Twilight (I must say that I am a Bella / Jacob fan). =)
Till next post!
i absolutaly hate the fact that Dakota Fanning is playing Jane!!!!!! I just can not see her playing the role she is to young and she is going to age alot between New Moon and Breaking Dawn, it was not a good idea at all. i thing that Ellen Page from Juno would have done a better job for the part.i mean i have read the books at least 5 time each and i don't think that she can pull it off.
I absolutely love the idea of Dakota Fanning playing Jane, she can pull it off. She is NOT too young, it was a good idea! The stupid anonymous person that's hating on Dakota would just have to deal, the director has already picked her choice of who's gonna play the part, so HA!!! Dakota Fanning's fan officially win this round!
JUNO TEMPLE??????? NO WAY. I AM PLEASED THEY HAVE CHOSEN DAKOTA. CANT SEE ANYONE ELSE AS JANE.
dakota is playing jane and you can't cange it now cause it is coming out this month!!!!!(makes little screams)mwahahaha
i believe you already saw the movie, right? so, what would be your comment now about Dakota??!! hahahaha!! just don't get bitter 'coz Dakota was soooooo fantastic and really fits Jane.. your dream cast will just stay as a dream..:p
@shianne and anonymous: i actually do support dakota fanning as jane. If you see my fan-made volturi poster and my dream volturi cast lineup, you'd see I mentioned Dakota Fanning for the part. :) I've simply been open to other suggestions as well, since the other comment-ers did give very good possibilities too.
Yes, I've watched the movie, and I'm glad she did a good job, and I'm sure those who were worried about her are now resting easy. :)
