Underworld's Lycan Joins Twilight Congratulations Twilight fans, your franchise finally has a great actor. It’s not that I have anything against Kristen Stewart or Robert Pattinson, but they just aren’t in the same weight class as Michael Sheen.

Since they’ve already been shooting for a month, either they’ve had him on set and kept it under wraps, or they just hired him and his role isn’t significant.
