Posted on January 22nd, 2009 by Hot Momma
Child star Dakota Fanning who turns 15 on Feb. 23 is reportedly in talks to play Jane opposite Robert Pattinson & Co. in New Moon.
The upcoming sequel to box office megahit Twilight, will feature Jane as a member of Italy’s Volturi, the most deadly group of bloodsucking killers in author Stephenie Meyer’s best-selling series.
A source tells e! online, “There were no auditions — they just offered it to her outright, and now they’re in negotiations. They’ve been going back and forth.”
In Stephenie Meyer’s hit book, Jane is one of the most powerful bloodsuckers in the vampire world — and an enemy of the film’s protagonists, Edward and Bella.
Director Chris Weitz is expected to start shooting New Moon in March in the U.S. and Italy, with the target of hitting movie theaters on Nov. 20.
