Huh, This Director Went From Vampire To Werewolf?!!

OPENING NIGHT-RIDING HOOD 2011
Catherine Hardwicke, 55, the first woman to make the first movie "Twilight" series. She has also done some independent films like, "Lords Of Dogstown" and "Thirteen" before Twilight came along. When did Twilight it became the highest paid woman director in all time.

She loved Little Red Riding Hood and this time Hardwicke didn't have to rely on books from an author to lead the way to make the movie. It seems like the director made Red Riding Hood dark though. She picked this story because kids and adults see this story differently.

What's funny about this that the script was sent to Leonardo DiCaprio's studio Appian Way for developing the script. Ha! I'm named after this nile. It's a Hebrew name. Hot!

Anyway, getting back to what I was saying. Most importantly, Hardwicke got to pick her cast of people that she wanted. Like Amanda Seyfried from "Momma Mia" and "Letter's To Juliet." She chose Amanda because of her eyes, she's funny, beautiful, and she can do anything! Which most director would die to have.

Also, she picked Shiloh Fernandez who was her pick outta four for the movie "Twilight" but...

According to Harwicke, this is what she had to say,

Hardwicke cast as Peter the woodsman Shiloh Fernandez, a young actor she’s been impressed with for some time.
“I tried to cast Shiloh in ‘Thirteen,’ but it didn’t work out. And then he was one of my top four candidates to play Edward in ‘Twilight.’ I thought he was pretty great, but in that case I already had Kristen Stewart as my leading lady, and we based the casting of Edward on ‘chemistry’ readings. The actors did some scenes with Kristen, and it was pretty clear that she worked best with Rob Pattinson.”
When she put Seyfried and Fernandez together for this project, Hardwicke said, “they really clicked.”
Hardwicke and Seyfried traveled to England to audition actors for the second suitor, Henry.
I'll keep ya in the know after I see it. With that being said, MARCH 11!
