According to reports, Dakota Fanning is currently in talks to play Jane, opposite Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart in the "Twilight" sequel 'New Moon".
"There were no auditions," a source revealed. (Reps for the actress could not be reached at press time.) "They just offered it to her outright, and now they're in negotiations. They've been going back and forth."
In the book, Jane is a vampire with dangerous mental powers who serves as a guard for the Italian sect known as the Volturi. In a casting notice that went out earlier this month, Jane is described as a "petite blonde with a ... Botticelli angel-like face ... [and] crimson irises," E! reported. The notice also said that "fellow Volturi guards Demetri and Felix ... are three times the size of her, [and] they are terrified of her."
"Twilight" fans have already shown their support for the casting. A petition sent to Summit Entertainment, the studio producing the films, says the 14-year-old would be "perfect" as Jane.
"Dakota is a brilliant actress, fits the role perfectly, and she's just the right age to play Jane," reads the petition, which currently has 128 signatures. "We believe she would be the perfect addition and would really bring the character of Jane to life."
