Dakota Fanning: New Moon Possible

Dakota Fanning: New Moon Possible

Dakota Fanning is getting closer and closer to sinking her teeth into the Twilight fandom.

The 14-year-old Coraline actress is in talks to play the role of Jane, the Botticelli blonde vampire with an angel-like face, in the sequel, New Moon. Dakota talked to Access Hollywood earlier today (January 24) about the role. She shared, “I think it’s too soon to tell if I’ll for sure be doing it, but it’s so great. I’m a really big fan of that series and the first film and all the actors in it, so it would be wonderful.”

Dakota even joked with the entertainment show: “I don’t think they’ll have to put a lot of makeup on me. I’m pretty white already.”

A rep for Summit Entertainment, the company behind the hit cult Twilight films, confirmed that Dakota is indeed being considered: “We are considering all actors that have the unique requirements for the look of Jane — Dakota being one of them.”

Lexi - #13..

Erm at the end of the day, how the hell can you critisise peoples opinions?! If YOU dont like them, thats fine, keep it to yourself and have nothing to do with the books or movies!! But you cant question why people like them!!.. they books are brilliant and in my opinion totaly differnt to the Harry Potters so you cant compare them!! Stephenie Meyer is amazing cause shes able to really dig deep into the characters emoitions, the books in my opionion are great..

Annd thats my opinion #13 so you cant put it down!

Jeeeze, if you dont like it so much.. erm dont bother comenting about it? ’cause your not going to change peoples mind about it..

@ #26- Doesn’t matter if we “CAN’T” change people’s minds, it doesn’t mean we can’t try, However i do agree that #13, went a bit far, but #26, aren’t you ALSO critisising #13’s opinion as well?

nope not at all.. he’s entitled to dislike the books and films..

but saying “err why does everyone like twilight so much”
and “it’s not. it’s not a great book and one day all you fans will realize the error of your ways ” ?

You cant question why other people like them.. and pehaps people do like them, how can #13 say its an error in their ways? I see that as being quite disrespectful..

Lol im fine with people having their own opinions, its just those comments were a bit disrespectful to people that actualy do like the books and films

I was always curious who would be Jane, and to be honest I never in a million years thought of Dakota, but when I read that she may possibly be Jane, I thought it was awesome. IDK, she’s got the material to be that character, i mean the girl can shoot a freaky glance that Jane would do, and yet she looks charming, which is exactly how Jane looks. Seems like a bold choice. Only problem might be she might take the limelight of the whole movie!

i really dont think everyone should be making such a big deal about twilight. i agree with #13 that twilight isn’t the best book ever, and everyone has their own opinions so why criticize someone elses? and when a lot of people like something and someone doesn’t, why won’t you let them get there opinion in? why won’t you let them say THERE side of the story and say how THEY feel. it’s like when jobro fans put down their ex-girlfriends. it’s just rude and dont take a random person who you’ll probably never meets comments to heart.

the error of your ways comment-w/e. it’s just a term get over it. at least she didn’t put down the movie.

I think that she’ll play Jane really well. I mean, she has the look. She could pull off Jane really well, physically. The thing is, she plays most of her movies in aproximately the same way, so i’d love to see her bring something more to this movie.

Go Dakota! :)

she i way too you! …and she looks even younger than she is! Jane is supposed to be in her late teens to early 20s…Dakota looks like she is 12! bad choice…but i have an idea for Alec…Tony Oller, maybe? just a thought :D

i think that none big star celebrites should be in any of the twilight movies. it should be all new people. i heard lindsay lohan and vanessa hudgens are trying to get it on it. soo stupid.

I don’t like her, to be jane. But she is not going to ruin a movie. And jane is a second character. So is not to important the one who does it, at least that does it well.

i honestly think that she shouldn’t get the job

she has had plenty of roles and im sure that
theres someone out there who could outshine
her anyday as the role of jane

I really think there should be no big name actors in the twilight movies. That sounds weird but I really think that dakota fanning wouldn’t make a good jane. Not that she would be bad or any thing but just not right. It’s like vanessa Hudgens being leah. It just doesn’t quite work.

I really don’t think she should play the part…. She seems 2 young. I don’t think big stars should play the roles.. I dunno it would seem wierd.

Marley @ 6:33 pm on 02/02/2009

She is perfect for the part she’s really small and pretty and looks delicate just like all the other female vampires. I hope she can act like a crule heartless witch :P
She’s not a little kid anymore she’s 15 she can handle this part
SERIOUSLY though Twilight wasnt all I thought it would be it was still good but not what I imaged.

YAY DAKOTA!

Well the books sucked and the movie sucked more. :S
I’m just waiting to watch New Moon because I actually like the actors
so I think Dakota would be great. I really like her and can imagine her as Jane. I actually thought she would play a perfect Jane when I read the novels. And I totally agree with #13….only difference is I hate Twilight. And for people who will comment and say things like “then why are you watching it” cause as i said before I like the actors and I love vampires, werewolves and the whole fantasy thing too. Plus Jacob is the main point in New Moon :D

Sue @ 12:42 am on 02/07/2009

Um that Jordanna girl isn’t very attractive(aren’t vampires in Twilight known for there attractiveness and sparkle powers?) and she dosen’t look like a Jane to me…Plus Jane is blond and pale like Dakota!

I think Dakota will be great as Jane. I wonder if they’re going to dye her hair though, cause in the book it says Jane’s hair is pale brown
