i have a feeling that someone must be kidding me!!! this kid, ok he is same age as i am but still, he is sweet innocent shy boy, im not gonna be scared of him, im not gonna respect him, like he is the one we should be afraid of, cause in book a always had some respect for their apearence, they are ancient and this boy doesnt look like some over 2000 years old dangerous vampire, at least not right now, so he is better be trying hard to deliver the character!!!

Well… I don’t know… I have seen him in Sweeney Todd and I can’t say he’s a good or a bad actor, it’s the only movie I’ve seen him in… so we’ll see in New Moon. Maybe he’ll surprise us. But it’s still a good news to see someone you know in a Twilight role =D

I don’t know what to think, he looks to young to play Caius. I pictured an actor between the ages of 30 to 40 years playing Caius, Aro and Marcus. I think it is best that we see this as a rumor until Summit announces who they have casted as the Volturi like they did with the wolk pack.

I AM THRILLED! This boy is extremely talented and beautiful and I adored him in Sweeney Todd. He is beyond capable of playing Caius – wonderfully no less.

<333 HE WILL DO GREAT!

I actually think he’ll be a really amazing Caius. He does look a little too young to play the character, but the producers will be able to make him look older. I’m really excited now.

Wow he is waaaaayyyy younger than how I pictured Caius!! Caius was described as having long, white hair. Yeah, white hair! U know, that color hair turns as u get older?! I figured that pretty much indic8d that he was like 50s atleast.. Idk though. With makeup maybe this guy can pull the look off. Now, how he is going to pull off Caius’s creepy vibe will depend completely on his acting skills–which I know nothing of… Like I said, Idk.

I think he’ll do a great job.

Good coice, I think. He was awsome in Sweeney Todd. So June is when they’ll film the Volturi. I assume in Canada.

:shock:
So I really envisioned Caius as older. I think that Jaime is a great actor but he could have played someone else in the Volturri. The idea that Caius is younger than Carlisle is a bit much. I guess we aren’t going to agree with all of the casting choices but sometimes I wonder what the person getting paid to do the casting job is thinking. Did she read the books? :shock:
