The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn casts its Covens and Nomads
Summit Entertainment announced today the following have been cast in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn for roles in The Amazon Coven, The Egyptian Coven, The Irish Coven and The Romanian Coven, as well as the American and European Nomads as outlined below.

The Amazon Coven


The Amazon Coven is comprised of Tracey Heggins as Senna and Judith Shekoni as Zafrina.

Among the oldest vampires in the world, Senna and Zafrina are descendants of an ancient Amazonian tribe. They have lived outside of civilization for centuries and therefore make no attempt to keep up a human facade. Though they drink human blood, the Amazons have long been allies of Carlisle.

The Egyptian Coven


The Egyptian Coven is comprised of:


The Egyptian Coven consists of Amun, Kebi, Benjamin, and Tia, with Amun as the leader. It is stated that even though they are not a biological family, they could pass for one. Amun is extremely protective of his family and fearful of Aro.

The Irish Coven


The Irish Coven is comprised of Marlane Barnes (The Tree of Life) as Maggie, Lisa Howard as Siobhan and Patrick Brennan as Liam.

The Irish Coven, a relatively young group, was founded by Siobhan and Liam, but Maggie's talent made her an important element of it. They are not vegetarian but they are civilized.

The Romanian Coven


The Romanian Coven is comprised of Noel Fisher (The Pacific, Final Destination 2) as Vladimir and Guri Weinberg (Munich) as Stefan.

The Romanian Coven is one of the oldest covens in the world and they were the ruling vampire family until they were unseated by the Volturi. For that reason they harbor a centuries old resentment of the Italian coven.

The American Nomads


The American Nomads are comprised of:


Turned during the Revolutionary War, Garrett has chosen to live a nomadic existence, wandering the world on his own. Garrett has never lost the rebellious spirit of his human life, and loves a good fight, always rooting for the underdog. Though not a vegetarian, Garrett is among Carlisle's closest and oldest friends. Mary and Randall are American nomadic vampires. Peter and Charlotte are nomadic vampires and mates. They were created during the aftermath of the Southern Vampire Wars, in which Jasper was a key player. They have remained friends with Jasper ever since.

The European Nomads


The European Nomads are comprised of Joe Anderson (The Crazies) as Alistair. A nomadic vampire from England, Alistair has a misanthropic, brooding personality and a deep mistrust of all authority. Although he counts Carlisle as his closest acquaintance, he doesn't visit more than once a century.

    Its only to job to them, if one or more of them gets popular...so what. Just think of the money they get just by getting into such bad films.
    Its not the agents fault, the client sees the picture of the actor of which they like. The two of them set up an appointment, the talent goes and does his/ her best, if he/she gets hired then the other actors that went for the part end up on another film or TV series.
    You can't just fire an agent for doing their job, unless you paid 40 or more dollars for nothing and you don't get a job until a year and a half later.
    Agents that want an up front fee for doing nothing are a scam.

    I bet that each and every one of those actors and actresses were told that this was a good idea.Too bad for them.If I were an actor and my agent told me it would be good idea to star in one of these.I would have stuck a letter openner in his leg and fired him.
