So what do you think of this aussie cutie? Many of the fans seem to be very welcoming of Xavier Samuel, and excited for his new career within the United States. The Australian radio show Hot30 has the first ever interview with the newly cast, Riley, in Eclipse.
The interview revealed three things about Samuel and his experience with the Twilight series: He made his initial audition tape in Sydney, then flew to Vancouver and LA to meet the crew, and just found out yesterday that he landed the role, Xavier watched Twilight for the first time during the plane trip to North America, and this is his FIRST (of many to come) American roles.
Sorry Fans, but Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter) will NOT be Riley in Twilight’s third installment, Eclipse. The first big casting revealing was of the unknown Australian actor, Xavier Samuel, who will play the role of the newborn vamp, Riley. Although Samuel is not a big name within the United States, he is surely known and has appeared in many films in Australia.
For those of you who want some backup info on who Riley is: Riley was originally a human college student, who fell under the spell of the vengeful Victoria. As a newborn ravenous vampire he joins Victoria in a plot to kill Bella Swan.
Don’t forget, Eclipse begins shooting in August in Vancouver for the June 30, 2010 release date!
