Third 'Twilight' Film, 'Eclipse', Begins Casting
Movie

Casting directors for the third installment of the 'Twilight' series are seeking for the Clearwater siblings as well as Riley, giving away the casting breakdowns for each of the characters.

AceShowbiz - Moments after "The Twilight Saga's New Moon" unleashed its first official trailer, news are coming out that the casting for its follow-up movie, "The Twilight Saga's Eclipse", has begun. First to break down the report is E! Online, noting that they got a hold of a casting notice of at least three characters for the third "Twilight" movie.

One of the characters is Riley. He is described to be "a handsome, blond, clean-cut college boy who falls victim to Victoria [and] plays an integral role in Victoria's attempt to murder Bella Swan." The other two are the Clearwater siblings, Seth and Leah. Seth, a member of the La Push werewolf clan, is a "tall, gangly-limbed boy with a huge, happy grin [who] idolizes Jacob," while his sister is the only woman in La Push.

Leah is further described to be "tall and slender with beautiful skin and short cropped black hair." The casting notice also read that "she would be considered gorgeous if not for the perpetual scowl she carries due to a broken heart and her anger issues." For the roles Seth and Leah, the casting directors reportedly seek for Native American or First Nations actors to fill in, similar to what they've done with "New Moon".

"Eclipse" is the third novel from Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" series. The big screen version will be penned by Melissa Rosenberg and directed by "30 Days of Night" helmer David Slade. Set for June 30, 2010 U.S. release, it will follow Bella Swan as she once again finds herself surrounded by danger. Now, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob, with the knowledge that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf.
