New Moon Ramblings...Cast Updates!

hmm.. he does look young hah, but i can see him playing that character

I must admit he is not how I pictured Cauis at all. I thought he would at least be in his thirties.....not every vamp they cast has to look like they could be teenagers. I expected the Volturi to at least look like adults but oh well hopefully he can pull it off. I must say though that just from his look it will be hard to picture him as the evil and short tempered Cauis...hmmmm.

I don't like him. I agree with Rachelle, I thought they would be more then toddlers. But I don't do the casting so I guess we have to live with him as Caius

Good news is that it isnt a huge role yes he is part of the Volturi but it isnt like we will have to see him a lot. I wish they would have picked someone better though like a bigger and older guy with a deadly look or someone who is more rugged looking since Cauis is about destroying and conquering.

Caius is a bad ass. This child isn't scary at all.

Yea he doesnt give me that kill kill kill vibe at all. That is not Cauis based on appearance i dont know what they were thinking he could be an amazing actor but he doesnt look the part

Nah, i dont like it, they need someone that looks evil... i cant see past the childlike face... even though he might ACT the part, (maybe well, i dont know, i havent seen his work,) i think he'll need a lot of makeup or something to make him LOOK the part.

He was in Sweeny Todd and I didn't like him then. He won't ruin the movie for me though!

i think he's too young looking. to me cauis isn't that young. but what do i know..lol. oh well what do ya do? just go watch and see what happens i guess. but dang they dont' have to make them all teenagers.

Everyone keeps saying that its like um the criteria for being a vamp isnt being a teenager so why are they casting the volturi that way plus it is the same consensus....he doesnt look right for the part. He is way too young and I pictured Cauis as big and brooding not babyfaced and wimpy sorry but thats what I see when I look at this guy. I think a lot of Twilighters feel that way about him though because even when people didnt like the other casting like for Twilight it was small things they didnt like but those things could be overcome....like Taylor being too small or some of the Cullens not having the right hair color. With this guy he just is totally wrong for the part even if he is really evil he doesnt have that look to him....at least he doesnt have a big role in the film.

[b]Yeah I would have to agree with ya!

I love Sweeney Todd.

It will be interesting to see how he does in the role but seriously he isnt the Caius I had in mind.

I can agree with you

I pictured someone older not younger he's to young for how Caius is described in the book

I think we are all on the same page in here and a lot of other Twilighters feel the same.....he isnt Cauis. He can be the best actor in the world but he looks nothing like what was described.

Exactly I think they should have used someone who's way older than him and I will openly admit that I instantly thought of Bill Nighy as Cauis.

I have a question how on earth are they going to make them look old like Bella describes them in the New Moon book?

Makeup can do wonders in Hollywood. Im not worried about them being able to do that I just think they should have picked someone better in general.

exactley.

A lot of people feel he isnt right for the part so I kind of feel bad for the guy because if he already isnt even the right fit for the character and then he bombs on the acting.....dear lord help him....you know there are some intense fans out there

Whats funny is a lot of people were completely against Rob as Edward so maybe people will change their minds.

You know I was thinking about that too but there is a huge difference with this guy. I know people were against Rob and also against Nikki and they both did amazing jobs but they could also both pull off the look of the characters when it was all said and done where as this guy cant become like ten to twenty years older and look like an actual adult and he cant be the big brooding Cauis that I pictured. At the very most he will surprise us all and make us change the way we imagine Cauis looking....but he can never really look like the Caius I pictured.

I agree. I dont think he is fit for the part. I just love that movie haha.

Plus it isnt like a quick fix with his appearance that would make people say oh ok that will work. Like with Nikki Reed people didnt like that she wasnt a natural blonde.....add a wig or dye her hair and its fixed with this guy not so much
