Summit Entertainment has cast British actor Jamie Campbell-Bower in "The Twilight Saga: New Moon," which began shooting last week in Vancouver.
Campbell-Bower, whose credits include "RockNRolla" and "Sweeney Todd," will portray a member of the Volturi, an Italy-based coven of vampires.
"New Moon" stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson reprising their "Twilight" roles as Bella and Edward with Chris Weitz directing. The pic, centering on Bella being drawn into the world of werewolves while threatened by the Volturi, will be released domestically on Nov. 20.
"Twilight" has grossed $380 million worldwide and sold over 3 million DVDs in its first day of release.
