Did Vanessa Hudgens Audition for 'New Moon'?

Taylor Lautner is definitely reprising his role as shape-shifter Jacob Black in "New Moon," but is it true that "High School Musical" sweetheart Vanessa Hudgens really auditioned for a vampy role in the sequel? Plus, the "Twilight" cast's first reaction to news of Taylor's return.

UPDATE: Hudgens' pr tells "Extra," "To my knowledge, this isn't true." Summit Entertainment tells us, "Everything is a rumor and it is not true."


NEXT: One Hot Ticket! Inaugural Balls Abound

 

All this uproar about Vanessa Hudgens sound alot like all the uproar about Robert Pattison getting the part of Edward Cullen. Like “oh, he can’t be Edward, he’s Cedric Diggory”. I don’t think it will matter in the end. And don’t tell me you won’t see the movie if she’s in it. If your a Twilight fan, you’ll see the movie!!

You have to be effing kidding me! Who’s bright idea was it to even think of casting V.hudgens?! She’s HORRIBLE! I think it’s a poor attempt to broaden the demmographic of moviegoers for this film. BAD BAD BAD idea! Stick with unknown actors. If she is cast I don’t think I will be as excited about this film (we will have to put up with her whiny, juvenille acting for the next 3 films). Weitz you should seriously think before doing something that stupid! V stick with disney and taking nude pictures of yourself, it seems to be what you do best!

If vannessa is casted for New Moon, it would ruin the whole movie for me. I will not watch it. First off, She’s not a great actress. She lacks some skills. Secondly, she’s not a great role model. What would twilight moms think once they see her in the movie. I agree with the others though, they should stick with unknown actors. Vannessa should not be casted for this movie. She’s cute and adorable but with no talent. The producers should listen to the fans. They are the ones that make things happen in the longer run for movies.

i think vanessa would be a good Leah, she looks native american so thats good, i don’t think she could be good as the voluturi though, thats just not her.

i think it would be better for her to be jane or someone from the volturi. because in the book i dont think that she would fit the role for leah but who knows they might be able to pull it off..

Uhm, Im a fan of Vanessa. But having her as part of Twilight is wrong. I cannot picture Vanessa none other than a disney girl. I love the twilight books and vanessa doesn’t fit in. Ehk.

ummm…Leah is Native American, not blonde, Alyssa. And, I really think they should pick a nobody actor to play all the Volturi/ werewolf parts. It would just be better.

Vanessa Hudgens would be casted for one of the Head vampires in Italy. They are too dark and mysterious of characters for her. Its way out of her role and Twilight would seem weird with her in it. They need someone else…maybe a real actress….not HSM misfits. LOL

I think vanessa would b great as leah i mean so what she started as a disney actress that doesn’t mean she can’t do more mature movies!!!

I REALLY HOPE V. HUDGENS DOESN’T GET THE PART!! She isn’t fit for the Twilight series… Plus, she needs to stick to the dumb HSM stuff.

If Vanessa takes any part in Twilight, I’m going to be really mad. She will completely ruin the character with her awful acting skills.

I dont think that vanessa should star in new moon especially as leah clearwater. Im not a fan for vanessa at all. If she was in new moon i wouldnt be to excited to see it.

I think Vanessa shouldnt be leah, its just so not right. I think she shouldnt come in twilight as she started as a disney actress.
