I saw pictures of them recently on set, they all look well casted, especially the one that is casted as Paul. Cannot wait ’til November!
I can’t belive it the whole wolf pack is ugly except for taylor I juss wanna yell…why on earth couldn’t they keep krys and sol….gosh I’m so pissed.
Ummmm so Alex Meraz is pretty much the best looking man, umm, EVER! Bring on the wolves, Paul in particular!! And yes Renegade Press!
Shouldn’t casting be done by now for such a high-profile flick? Especially one that’s due in theaters in just eight months and will require a lot of post production (i.e. special effects)!
This one is being rushed and will probably suck like the first. That’s not a vampire pun, either.
Ya know, I’m an Edward/Vampire fan and the “Wolf Pack” just does nothing for me.
I am rather pissed though that they replaced “Twilight’s” Sam and Embry. Its such a pet peeve of mine when films have different actors for sequels.
*shrugs*
Like I said, I’m not a “wolf” fan so I guess I wont complain too much about it;)
As someone who is 3/4th Native American, I am so proud and glad they have casted 1st Nation Peoples. Love the cast!
To Addicted: They never stated in the Twilight movie that the 2 guys with Jacob were Sam and Embry – so no one was recast – they were just nameless friends.
eewww!! gross… they shouldve just gotten some latino models… i can tell that they want mmmmm Taylor Lautner to stand out… its a sad sad story…
How appropriate in choosing native americans for the wolf roles – as it should be. It is authentic and honest and you have to admit, they’re a gorgeous race of people! I don’t know (or care) how people in the U.S. think about it as I’m not from the U.S. but I do know “handsome” when I see it!
I’m with Dee on this one folks. I may have to turn to the wolf pack and get imprinted, these fellas are prime.
I think they’ll make an amazing wolf pack. And I can’t wait until they cast Leah… She’s the one I’m waiting to see.
Alex Meraz/Paul = My Wolfy Man

NEWS ALERT!!!
This just in: EW finally covers Twilight.
Ok the wolfpack has been cast for a while. This did not just happen. And that was Sam and Embry’s characters in the movie. The was determined a long time ago.
By the way, I love Twilight and I love EW for another Twilight article. Keep pissing people off. It is awesome!!!
I love u guys
The wolves bore me. I hope they trim that middle part of the book. The thought of Lautner’s grating voice for most of the film really turns me off.
