Cameron Bright Interview

There's a pretty awesome interview Nanaimo Daily News has with Cameron Bright. I just wanted to post this so we could all get a feel for this actor that has just newly joined our Twilight world. He seems like a pretty humble and grounded guy. Which is fantastic in my books =)

Here's a preview:

"Cameron Bright said his friends and family on Vancouver Island ``don't care'' about his celebrity status even after he landed a role in the teen blockbuster Twilight.

The 16-year-old Nanaimo actor will play the vampire brother of Dakota Fanning's character in the next three sequels of the popular movie.

Although Bright has acted alongside Hollywood stars such as Robert DeNiro and Nicole Kidman, this role could catapult him to a whole new level of fame. So-called Twi-hards, dedicated fans of the series by author Stephenie Meyer, are already keeping blogs updated with chatter about Bright and other stars in the movie.

But Bright said living on Vancouver Island has helped keep him grounded.

``If I didn't live here, I think I would probably be that stereotypical actor. In Hollywood, everyone wants to be an actor and just flaunt it,'' he said. ``Here, they just don't care.''

And of course we have the wolf pack which have been previously announced :)



phew! what a list!!

Cameron Bright as Alec

the reason why I wanted to focus on Cameron Bright is because I want to bring into focus how well he'll play Alec standing next to Dakota Fanning as Jane.

Cameron Bright is a 16 year old Canadian born actor and has acted in quite a few movies ( X-men: The Last Stand, Ultraviolet).
Dakota Fanning, 15, is a young actress that I'm pretty sure needs no introduction. Her latest movie, Push, was recently released.

Let's see:


I can see a resemblance, can you guys?
At this point, he looks like he'd be perfect to play Alec. Next to Dakota, I can really see the evil twins wreaking havoc ~ I can't wait to see how things pan out :)

Who should be cast as Alec?

Or maybe he's already been cast?! that would be a laughing point - while we're all busy pre-occupied with Dakota as Jane, Alec may have already been cast.

well, we don't have confirmation on that, but there's now some solid speculation!

New York Post have posted an article about which actors should play Alec...with their points on pros and cons.

and the nominees are....

Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter)

Skandar Keynes (Edmund from Narnia)

Freddie Highmore (Charlie in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory)
Gaspard Ulliel (young Hannibal Lecter in Hannibal Rising)

Alex Pettyfer (Alex in Stormbreaker)

What do you guys reckon on this one? I think, for me anyway, out of these 5 contenders (unofficial) it should be either Alex Pettyfer - he could look like Dakota, or Freddie Highmore - doesn't look like Dakota but looks like he's deceptively evil! other than that it would be Tom Felton...but I'm not totally sure on Tom as Alec, he could do just as well as the others. Lets see him side by side with Dakota first....
