Casting Requirements for Edward Cullen

It looks like the marketing campaign for Catherine Hardwicke's book is in overdrive. This is from MTV Blogs:

The result (the book) is a fascinating peek into the mind of the former Production Designer, whose scribbled notations include “As Bella falls in love, she starts to dress a little more feminine – floral prints, more form-fitting, etc.” and the casting requirements she had while casting Edward:

- Pale skin
- Looks like he is 17
- Great actor
- Great chemistry with Kristen
- Best looking guy in the world.


And did they find the guy they were looking for? We think they did :))


And here is a larger version of the EW cover I posted earlier today

I think Rob can do 17 as well as older I think that's part of his appeal. Best looking guy bar none!

I agree, I think Rob does look 17, though my favorite pics of him are when he actually looks his age. :D

I don't think there is a man alive who would have made a better Edward. Rob just IS Edward. I thought it was funny that MTV Blogs were calling that his "new beard" when that is a really old picture.
