More big casting news on the sequel to Twilight, New Moon. Summit Entertainment announced tonight that they’ve cast the wolf pack in the movie. Native American/First Nation actors Chaske Spencer, Bronson Pelletier, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Tyson Houseman have signed on to star as the members of the wolf pack in The Twilight Saga: New Moon.
I haven’t read the books, so I’m not going to pretend to know what that means. Here’s how Summit describes the characters: “In the film, the wolf pack defends humans against vampires although they have a tribal history intricately entwined with Edward Cullen and his family. The wolf pack members will join Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and fellow wolf pack member Taylor Lautner in the film directed by Chris Weitz which will be released domestically November 20, 2009.”
They’re making an extra effort to point out that all the actors they’ve cast are, as their characters are supposed to be, truly of Native American descent. I guess that’s better than Lorenzo Lamas with a feather in his hair.
