THE CAST FOR 'NEW MOON' IS HERE!

Like many readers out there, I'm a huge fan of Stephanie Meyer's 'Twilight' saga. Right now I'm reading the third installment, "Eclipse", but what I'm really excited about is the release of the sequel, "New Moon". 
Coming out on November 11, fans are wondering how filming is going or if it's even finished. The film has a new director but isn't exactly done with casting. Yahoo.com has a whole gallery on who will be joining the cast. New members will include Dakota Fanning (as Jane) and Jamie Campbell-Bower as Caius (he played Antony in Tim Burton's "Sweeney Todd"). 
But what I'm wondering is how well Kristen Stewart will play Bella in this movie. In the book "New Moon", her character is very dramatic when (SPOILER ALERT) Edward leaves her in the beginning of the story. I wasn't exactly impressed with her acting skills in the first movie considering she comes off as very awkward. I can't see her playing such a character that's in such physical and emotional pain, that Bella almost becomes annoyingly dramatic.
However, I am looking forward to seeing more of Taylor Lautner as Jacob. In "Twilight", he has a very minor role in the story. But in "New Moon", you'll almost want to turn to Team Jacob (I'm on Team Edward XD). Because Jacob's physical appearance is supposed to be so muscular and massive, Lautner gained almost 30 lbs. of muscle to play the role! 
Taylor may be hot, but what I'm really looking forward to is seeing that sexy Rob Pattinson. When he died as Cedric in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", my friend was practically in tears. But he really seems to fit the part of Edward very well. He's handsome, has a velvet voice and has good chemistry with Kristen Stewart.
