Summit Entertainment is in quite a hurry to rake some profits off Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight novels, with the third film just about to start production while the second is still 3 months away from release.
So the TWILIGHT news du jour is a casting addition to said third film ECLIPSE in the person of one Jack Huston, grandson of the legendary John. Grandpa would be so proud of you, young man…
Jack will be handling a character called Royce King II, who apparently was a fiance of Nikki Reed’s character Rosalie during the Great Depression. Wish I could say more, but I’d need to read the book for that.
Filming is set to begin this month under director David Slade, for a June 30, 2010 release date.
