Twilight Modern Recast
(based off of hard hitting FACTS)
Diana Silvers as Bella Swan
Jacob Elordi as Edward Cullen
Diana Silvers has a lot of similar face features as Kristen, not only that but I wanted to darken her up a bit. Though described as pale in the book and movie, probably to appease to systemic racism, a girl that’s lived in Arizona probably isn’t that pale. Plus I’m a bit bias in picking a Jewish actress 🥰
Though in the book Edward is described has having auburn hair, and they attempt to recreate some of that within the movie, I couldn’t find anyone else like Jacob that had the “Edward” vibe to them. I can just see him as Edward 100% especially within a modernized adaptation.
Boo Boo Stewart as Jacob Black
Devery Jacob as Leah Clearwater
Watch me as I casually recast Boo Boo 😳 he is literally gorgeous though, and don’t tell me otherwise that he wouldn’t play an amazing Jake ! It’s also extremely hard to find any fully native american actors and actresses, especially younger ones!
Devery is gorgeous, badass and an activist for her people! She’s also Canadian, so I’ve seen her in tons of interviews. I totally feel like she could play Leah so well! (Also with that exact haircut, it would be everything 😍)
Lana Condor as Alice Cullen
Louis Hofmann as Jasper Hale
Y’all already saw Lana coming, I mean- look at her?? She’s bubbly, energetic and plays characters that are as well, but she also knows how to play a dramatic type.
Louis Hofmann is a german actor from the series “Dark.” I honestly just get Jasper vibes from him. Just a quite type ya know? Plus I would love to see shorter hair and more strawberry toned on Jasper!
Josephine Langford as Rosalie Hale
John Boyega as Emmett Cullen
Jospehine would play a bitch ass Rosalie. I can literally picture it in my head, the only downside would be that she looks a bit younger ! And I would give her some extensions in a movie adaption.
John playing a goofy and dumb Emmett? Count me in pls. Even though John is super “Hollywood” star status right now and maybe going with someone more ‘Netflix’ would be a better choice, I can also picture John with a stupid hat on, talking nonsense.
Jessica Chastain as Esme Cullen
Sam Clafin as Carlisle Cullen
Jessica is a bit of an older choice and so is Sam, but the reason I wanted it that way was due to Smeyers poor writing of the cullens anyway. There’s absolutely no way god damn 20 yr olds would get away with fostering all these almost adult kids. I totally picture the cullen parents to be atleast 30 guys. Anyway Jessica is total “mom” type, and I would love to see something different with Esme’s hair.
Sam is almost nearly as perfect as Peter. I mean?? He’s chivalrous and dashing, can totally play a handsome Dad and Doctor. Also I like the darker hair, but Sam with lighter hair also looks just as “Carlisle”y 🥰
