Ben Barnes as Aro of the Volturi [Take II]

[chemilamazi]

please stop this idiotic comments that ben should have played edward! i think that ben is a good actor and has really great future as an actor. acting in twilight would ruin his career at all. i think that it's better for him that they chose Robert. ben is not an actor seeking for a fame, he acts in really good movies:>>>

[bbkulotz]

@volturigirl96 who is stupid in here? ben probably knows how to spell the word "stupid". be careful with your remarks, lady! ben is not a "stupid dumb". he is a degree holder and he graduated college with honors!

[kwlhorses12345]

ben looks amazing as a vampire! <3 :D what is this music called?

[carolitakaka]

Ben should have played Edward

[aitch3]

@carolitakaka naaaaaawwwwwww!

[Saijuri]

wow good doing! LIKE IT! :-D

[NashDiazp1]

I want to merry Pattison i just finished watching Twilight Eclipse at TwilightEclipsePlay[.]info Its so great

[crihu]

c'mon! everyone knows twilight sucks! there are only TEENAGERS in tht film, even Gerard Way from MCR said so. Ben is exquisite like actor

[LouiseLollipop]

Ben Barnes is far too talented for Twilight. The film gives actors reputations as tween stars.

[justmeandmuhaha]

he would have been the best one onto this role :(

[xMissLisaNx]

0:46 makes me melt! I love your video : )

[curveyprincessmaya]

LOL! he's sexy either way!

[ReeLeeNow]

I could be convinced!

[dizziegirlie2]

I LIKE ARO HE THE WARMHEARTED ONE of the three

[bosco125684154]

damn! He should have been cast!

[QXxMidnightxXQ]

Amysophiewillow shut up honestly if you don't like it don't say anything! How rude!

I thought it was great:D And its true he isn't hard to look at, at all;) Mmm yummy..

[TwilightxIsXLove]

He's too good-looking to be Aro.

I want to be attracted to him, not scared of him. haha

Besides, I think he's working on the next Chronicles of Narnia movie, so he would be too busy anyway.

[sarahj1003]

wen they were filmin new moon Ben Barnes was doin Dorian Gray

[Aqueoua]

thanks so much. I'm glad you watched the whole thing and came to that very public conclusion.

[Madlen95nicegirl]

BUU.. i dont like this film! xD

but my friend love this film and book

[yaiochan]

Very hot pictures of Ben Barnes as a vampire btw. Nicely done and I love what you did with the eyes!

[yaiochan]

Actually, I think that Michael Sheen would be a pretty good choice for Aro as I've never really seen Aro as an attractive vampire. Aro, I think, is an older, more mature looking vampire and Michael Sheen does appear to have these qualities.

As for Ben Barnes, I was thinking the whole time that he would be better for the role of Marcus who had a love life and seemed like a more handsome character.

[yaiochan]

.. And I'm not implying that Aro and/or others didn't have a love life, I just mean that Marcus's love life stood out much more to me and had more depth.

[dolphin1992108]

he looked like a vampire too...

look at his eyes, they give me the creeps!

[beebii15]

wow he looks sooo good xD

[Cereghini]

Ben is currently working on the next Chronicles of Narnia video, Voyage of the Dawn Treader, so the New Moon cast couldn't have him anyway. He is handsomer than Michael Sheen though, but Dawn Treader will be exciting, so Sheen can be Aro if he wants to be.

[dramionespuffy4eva]

i heard the caned dawn treader coz they didn't have enough money, resession and all

[danieliquia91]

ooo my god!!! great job!!! how do you do that?.... it´s amazing....

[CullenClarinet0128]

Ben Barnes isn't in the movie at ALL

[Aqueoua]

No he isn't. But I made this when they were still throwing around names for the New Moon cast.

It's still fun to dream

[MsElusa]

а видео СТРАШНОЕ!!!!!!!

[MsElusa]

тут чё ОДНИ АНГЛИЧАНИ???????

[brendon0293]

is he really play aro??

[Stormbringer24x]

No unfortunetly, its some other guy Michael Sheen

[nikylasognatrice]

che bello....se fosse lui l'attore che lo interpreta....e comunque Aro Marcus e Caius non sono vecchi!!!!! hai mai visto un vampiro vecchio?

[narutonote22]

hed be great as aro and i know thisll sound wierd but hes kinda beautiful.

[BubblieKat]

I want ben to be aro, but I have read it's confirmed that this other guy is gonna be aro.... I was like FRICKING HELL I'M GOING TO HATE THAT MOVIE! -_-

[roen90210]

I´m sorry... in my last comment I wrote the word "man"... the right word was "VAMPIRE"

[roen90210]

According to the book Aro is an old man... and Ben is so young... I don´t see how it could work... I just hope he makes a good job

[lydsterlovesjonas]

awesome photo!!! 0:30. is tht touched up or did they really have a photo shoot with him or something? He is really evil looking!

[Aqueoua]

Yes that is a touched up photo. xD

[crazything90]

I want Aro to be really evil looking ... like really EVIL!! lol

[qiana95]

he played prince caspian on chronicles of narnia

is pretty cute

[jessicat96]

are u serious!!

he can't be aro!!!

isn't aro supposed to be like an old vampire....

no!

[teamedwardcullen0000]

yeah a old vampire, but not a old person

[NessieCarlieCullen12]

he's perfect for it!

[chocolately12]

NO WAY, IF HE'S GOING TO PLAY ARO I AM GOING TO KILL MYSELF!!

in an anothr video a girl said it would be nice if it was johny depp. and i agree with her!!! he CANT play aro! he is too... too... too not-volturi-at-all!!!

[Aqueoua]

I certainly hope you can refrain from committing suicide.

He has denied being cast in the movie, so that pretty much eases your fear. But it isn't Johnny Depp either.

[sashathepanda]

lol, it was just a rumour sadly

he didnt audition ):

[Aqueoua]

well... not Joseph Parks.

but you're entitled to your opinion.

[seeleyboothfan]

Ooooo lordy, if he played Aro, I'd have a crush...

[AvatarTLABFreak]

omg great pitures absoulty amazing

[sashathepanda]

OMG he has to be in new moon

does anyone know if its final?

I WILL FAINT IN THE CINEMA IF HE IS lol

[chocolately12]

i d like to see him in new moon but NOOOOO as aro!!

[sashathepanda]

well hes not being in there now

he didnt even audition for it ):

[chocolately12]

i know.... =P

[sashathepanda]

lool ;p he would have been one sexy vampire though :c

[chocolately12]

i just thought he would be a perfect James (twilight) or Benjamin (breaking dawn), or jasper.... xP

i think he played on "the chronicle of narnia, prince caspian", didnt he?

[sashathepanda]

I have not read breaking dawn yet p:

Its the only book I have to read ... so donno haha

yes he did! omg! xD sooooo BUFF O_O

[chocolately12]

you have not read....? 0.o oh my God. it's the most emotive/sad book i ve ever read (YES, including the new moon!)... i didnt cry so much even when i was reading about bella's feelings (new moon). ='( and the most sad phrase of the whole book is "we have a deal". by edward. ='(

[PenelopeRainbow]

Wow, great photoshopping! I think he would make an amazing vampire. i always imagined aro a little older but i totally see where you're coming from! Awesome xx

[maferyumartz]

i have only one thing to say( well write) ... YUMMY!

[xbrokenxdreamsxmanix]

totally agreed!!!

[dArklOrd7379]

obviously

[carmelskinbeauty92]

isn't aro supposed to look old and creepy because he abuses his power?

[XxgabriellabxX]

wow, he gives me the creeps

[WildSparkler]

Ummm.....he looks more like a zombie than a vampire.

[lynxhasbigholybawls]

oooooooooo!!! omg! hes so *O*

[TwilightH2Ofan]

They are suppose to have RED eyes!!!!!

not blurry eyes!!!!

[Aqueoua]

The quality of the youtube video is not great, so I can understand how they might look blurry.

But in reality the effect is supposed to be: "Clouded and milky red eyes"

If you look up clouded or milky eyes on google, you will see what I was trying to achieve.

I believe his eyes are like that because of his age, the same with his skin.

[courttv89]

But then again the book said "red eyes as a milky color" and it looked great on Ben. Really good video, excellent job!

[DaxflameSlayer]

he looks like a retard, as usual, even though I didn't quite watch the video.

[Aqueoua]

hmm, wonder what that does for the credibility of your comment...

[sweetmuffin34]

no beard

[SirenSima]

Hahaha... Same here.

[AnkouBlake]

Wow, the manips are so awesome!

[jlyonne]

Wow, that is just stunning work. Is there someplace to view and/or download the images, instead of on a video?

[vanillarctic]

Creepy! Haha But he's still so... BEAUTIFUL!!! haha. Although.... I'm pretty sure this isn't the greatest video to watch before I go to bed haha! :S I have only read Twilight but I don't care what character Ben Barnes were to play just as long as he's in the movie! haha. So here is to hoping he is Aro! :P

[ithilianoctis]

I totally agree with yu!! He would e amazing as Aro!!

[Aqueoua]

None! I mean, not anyone who doesn't cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to hire...I was thinking Paul Bettany or Cillian Murphy...

but I think they are going to surprise us with that one. It will be no one we expect and probably someone we've never heard of.

[xVampireBridex]

I've got to say Ben Barnes would ROCK as Aro... like others have said, wouldn't have pictured him as Ben Barnes at first... but i can see it working now! Well done! Any ideas for his brother Caius?....

[KoMi10cItXa]

but hes supposed to hav long white hair...try makin him wit white hair...i tried imagining him wit white extentions nd pale skin i think he'll be great

[Allemande891]

Im a big fan of ben, and after watch twilight i said that he would neer play aro coz , i dont know he was not for that.

But I watch twilight, and I say:

YES! ben do it if you want to!

I remember a interview when he said he wanted to play Edward but he's quite old for that role hahahaha

[plasticandspastic]

he would make an awesome Aro.

but i sorta pictured Aro a little older,

in like his fourties.

oh well hell be a good Aro anyways.

[srconner]

Is he the guy who played Prince Caspain?

[Aqueoua]

Yes he is. In Prince Caspian they made him look younger than he actually is, and also tanned his skin.

[ErAgOn2610]

waaw! this is so GOOD!!!

its amazing, how did you do his eyes!? he looks very like a vampire!

i want him als Aro too!! :-)

[Aqueoua]

Trade secret >_>

[niKa9r]

oh i love him so much.... please let him get the role!

where did you get the pics? or did you create him a vampire yourself ^^?

[Aqueoua]

I edited the photos myself so he looks like a vampire. I am working on more, so they look even better.

[gnt2fan]

i always wanted ben barnes to play edward, because he's not only cute ;), he's got these dark eyes and this white skin, he'd be the best vampire hollywood has ever seen =)

[lightsabermario]

Umm...why aren't my comments appearing under the reply boxes?? I'm doing it the right way, but this dang thing makes it look like i'm talking to myself! LOL! I guess the people i was responding to don't even know i was talking to them!

[lightsabermario]

Everyone has their opinions, I understand. It's just, I'm an obsessed fangirl of both of them, so I can't get myself to decide. Don't mind me.

[lightsabermario]

I KNOW!! One is a smexy vampire, and one is a dashing prince in armor!! How does a girl decide????? If Ben is Aro, then he and Rob would be like, THE TWO SEXIEST MEN ALIVE!!!! (at least, in my opinion XD)

[iLoveJbMcFlYTakeThat]

he'd be perfect.

[ThespianFame]

i love it!

I love the beginning and the song and the quotes the most :)

[shapeshifter106]

I love it! More please!!! I really hope Ben gets the role!!!

[jkent]

IMHO Ben & Rob are 2 British actors nowadays who truly have D 'total package' in bagging whatever role there is in Hollywood esp. wen it comes to book adaptations nt jst bcoz of their talents but most significantly bcoz of their admirable/adorable personas. i luv them BOTH & m sooo more than psyched to see BEN as ARO.. as if having him and ROB in one muvi is such a treat already!!! (LOL) if that'll happen.. NM might end up being my favorite TWILIGHT Saga muvi version!(LOL) thanx 4d clip. ^_^

[pinksabotage]

ben barnes is sooo twilight material!! i hope the summit guys will see through this. fans will absssollutely love him!

[BuuBaaxD]

I tkink Ben will be amazing as Aro! He's born to this role ^^

[nimi1611]

ben is a perfect vampire i just hope that when they make the moive they dont make the part with aro to sort

[KarateStickFigure23]

Yes, I vote for him!

[PalmTreeParadise23]

I agree! Ben is definitely the best. He is so hawt!!

[cenalina13]

I can totally see has a vampire and the most sexest compared to Robert Pattinson.

PLEASE BE ARO BEN!!

[lightsabermario]

You are great at making him look like a vampire!

In this other book called Vampire Kisses, by Ellen Schrieber, many fans thought of Ben to be the gothic vampire love interest, Alexander Sterling. If that film option doesn't work, it would be awesome if he was in Twilight! Great job!

[ElizabethTurner101]

I totally see this happening!

[Hidan15]

He is actually HOT and YOUNG enough to play Aro so I'm approving him for Aro, congratulations Ben!

but wait didn't they say in the books that Aro was way taller than Bella????????

[lightsabermario]

He is. In the book, Bella is 5'4". It turns out that Ben Barnes and Rob Pattinson are the same height of 6'1". So that is pretty tall, and Ben is perfect as a vampire!!! Anyway, if Ben is Aro in the movie, us viewers will get to really compare the two in hotness, face to face!! Who do you think is hotter? It's sooo hard to decide!!!

[Hidan15]

same here it would be very hard to see who is hotter Robert Pattinson or Ben Barnes i can't decide

[lightsabermario]

Wait, do you watch Naruto? Hidan is a character in there! If you do, that show is cool, isn't it?

[Hidan15]

yeah i do

[lightsabermario]

Cool :)

[DancingDubliner]

il luv for him to be aro, but he beter bak off on taylor lautner role for jacob!! hed be good 4 jacob but ive gotten used to taylor and i think he is a perfect jacob!!

[Aqueoua]

Ben Barnes is not auditioning for the role of Jacob Black. His name is being put in for Aro. Michael Copon is the one who is trying to replace Taylor.

[jenbona]

Nice! I'm not totally opposed to Ben Barnes playing Aro he's a little younger than I was expecting but if he can get Aro's characteristics down then I'm all for him, if not I think he would also make a very good Demetri

[shaunalaun]

i loved what you did with his skin...i always thought they had red eyes?

[Aqueoua]

For some reason, Youtube leached some of the color from my video. But Aro's eyes are cloudy, which also causes the color to lose its intensity.

[mitsura92]

Ooh ooh! Can I please have the link to the image at 0.47 please Aqueoua! I'd really, really, appreciate it! Then I can stare at it on my computer all day... *sighs dreamily*

[Aqueoua]

Of course! I actually thought that particular picture wouldn't be as popular. Glad to hear I'm wrong!

I sent the link to you. Enjoy!

[mitsura92]

Thanks for the link Aqueoua! And why would you think that image wouldn't have been popular? With those eyes & the quirk of a smile of his face... Oooooohhh... So sexy... Thanks again!

[Aqueoua]

Very very welcome. I thought maybe he looked too young in the picture to be Aro. The one after that one does a better job of giving him age. But I agree, the quirk of a smile is sexy!

[lightsabermario]

I know! *drools* If he played Aro, this is exactly what he would look like, 'cause on that Twilight ad to the right of the video, he looks similar to Edward! Muy excelente!!

[mitsura92]

I absolutely LOVE these images! They're extremely well done & I especially love the image at 0.47 *swoons*

[Malgorbia]

yup its official I am in love. these pics are great! you really REALLY know what your doing. hopefully if he is cast the film editors will do a good job like this.
