The beautiful Bryce Dallas Howard (Lady in the Water, Terminator Salvation) - daughter of Ron Howard - has joined the cast of the David Slade directed The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the third installment in Summit Entertainment's vampire franchise. She replaces Rachelle Lefevre as the character of Victoria.

Lefevre originated the role in "Twilight" and appears in the upcoming sequel "New Moon," but Summit says scheduling conflicts forced her to leave the picture.

Pic starts shooting in Vancouver in August under the direction of David Slade. "Eclipse" has a release date of June 30, 2010.

"We are incredibly happy that Bryce has agreed to come into the franchise," said Erik Feig, Summit's president of worldwide production and acquisitions. "Rachelle brought Victoria to great screen life and Bryce will bring a new dimension to the character. The franchise is lucky to have such a talented actress as Bryce coming in to fill the role."

Howard most recently appeared in "Terminator Salvation." Her credits include "Spider-Man 3," "Lady in the Water" and "The Village."

STOP SHITTING ON THE HORROR GENRE AND IT'S FANS BY SUPPORTING THIS TEENIE BOP TRASH. MOVIES LIKE THIS BEING CONSIDERED HORROR IS A BLOW TO THE GENRE. THIS IS MTV TRASH AND IT DOESN'T BELONG ON A HORROR SITE. IT'S 'THE HILLS' WITH FANGS FOR FUCKS SAKE.

It's the sorriest sack of shit writing in the history of American literature. Vampires = horror. Twilight vampires = pretween angsty emo one dimensional fad cakes that bastardizes everything that even remotely resembles a vampire.

That's awesome I love Bryce ever since The Village, her performance was one of the reasons I liked that film. It's weird shes taking over a C-list actors gig though? considering shes like a A-list actress.

Guys... Its his job to report the news, it doesn't matter if you think this is "gay". And yes, i don't like Twilight myself but you can't go around giving Mr. Disgusting a hard time for reporting the news. Stop making excuses too, its about vampires and werewolves (? Not sure about the second didn't see the movie), THATS HORROR!

sure twilight sucks.. but don't you think it's a bit bullshit? and just a tad bit brutal to be taking it out on someone who didn't even come up with the idea of it?

The fact that David Slade agreed to direct this is the biggest disappointment. How can he have been part of a great vampire movie and turn around and direct something that degrades the vampire genre so much. And I was picturing him making actual horror movies, each better than the last. Unless he strays from the books to force all those stupid teenagers and lame, metrosexual "vampires" to encounter real vampires, get sucked dry, torn into little pieces, and fed to, rabid rottweilers I'll be utterly pissed off.

So if the whiners hate Twilight so much, yet still barge into EVERY news post about the series to leave their stains...does that mean you guys see the movies as well? A few "closet cases" out there maybe? Personally, if I HATE something that much, I sure as hell wouldn't be reading related news posts and taking the time to actually post (cry...whine) about it. Come out guys, we'll still love you.

New Moon may be more fantasy than horror and yes Twilight was more romance than horror, but Eclipse I am sure will be more horror, David Slade is directing and he did 30 days of night, I agree I don't understand why Twilight and New Moon would be considered horror, I think Eclipse and Breaking Dawn are more along the lines of Horror

So according to your logic: If you put fangs on something, it's considered horror? So the movie "little vampire" is a horror movie and not a kids movie? Harry Potter 3 had a werewolf in it, I don't see that movie in the Horror section. Twilight is a supernatural thriller that is made for overweight teen girls and homos.

I'll admit here before God and everybody that I read the first 2 books. I even OWN the first 2 books, they were a gift. But when the tweens got ahold of it, I washed my hands of it completely. But I agree, let the man do his job. If you don't like the franchise, don't click the link.

is it me, or is lovely Bryce hear starting a trend on taking returning roles from other actresses. It all started with Terminator Salvation and now this. Idk, just noticing. I like her for the most part.

Actually, Lefevre didn't leave, the studio chose to recast her after opting not to accommodate a scheduling conflict she had with another project that overlapped her Twilight shoot by 10 days. In fact, she's quite stunned by the decision. More here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32210025/ns/entertainm ent-access_hollywood/

Much better casting this time around and btw I'm a horror fan have been ever since i was a kid. I love all kinds of horror films audition, session 9, texas chainsaw massacre, evil dead, scream, freddy films, jason films, etc. I like em all and i hate a lot of them but twilight is not a horror film its a dark romance so if u don't friggin like it people stop reading these posts and commenting on them go right on to the next and stop being pretentious douches and damning a film you haven't even seen yet.
