Bryce Dallas Howard to Replace Rachelle Lefevre as Victoria in Twlight Saga’s: Eclipse
Summit Entertainment just announced that due to scheduling conflicts and other commitments Rachelle Lefevre has left the production of the third Twilight film, Eclipse as the evil, vengeful vampire Victoria. The Twilight Saga: Eclipse will start filming in Vancouver this coming August and the studio has already brought in a replacement for the actress who has already appeared as the character in Twilight and Twilight Saga’s New Moon.
Bryce Dallas Howard will take over the role of Victoria in the studio’s upcoming production.
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, is the third film in the studio’s Twilight film franchise based on Stephenie Meyer’s blockbuster book series, it will be directed by David Slade from a screenplay written by Melissa Rosenberg. The film will be released theatrically in North America on Wednesday, June 30, 2010.
In the third story, Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger as Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob – knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella is confronted with the most important decision of her life.
I think Howard is ver talented and may prove to be better in this role than Rachelle. I an glad they picked her up and sort of makes Twilight worth watching for me. Howard most recently starred in Terminator Salvation as Kate Connor and has been seen in Spider-Man 3, Lady In the Water, and The Village. She was nominated for a Golden Globe for her leading performance as an actress in the HBO film As You Like It.
