Twilight Saga Recasting: Who else could play Jasper Hale?

http://Twitter.com/ClevverTV - Follow Us!

Our special Twilight re-casting series continues right now. Jasper Hale is next on our list.

Hey guys! You've reached another episode of Clevver TV's re-casting series and I'm Dana Ward.

Today we're going through the list and audition hopefuls from before Twilight got made and we're making the role of Jasper up for grabs. It might be insane to put the actually casted Jackson Rathbone to the side, but we're doing it nicely, just to open up the spot for another actor. So we're asking you, just for fun, who would you re-cast for the role of Jasper?

While most online followers peg Jackson as being the best Jasper and absolutely perfect for the role, there was still a good number of Twilight fans who said he just doesn't seem exactly as described in the book series. Specifically, people said Rathbone seems too short for the more than 6-foot tall character and that he just seems too young - even though he's technically older than the vampire. What do you think about this analysis? And there was even talk that J-R was a finalist to play Edward Cullen - would that have been a better fit for the actor?

Well, getting back to the re-casting, here at Clevver TV, we straight-up asked you for your favorite replacement and here's what you came up with.

Chad Michael Murray got picked by viewers to play the vampire Cullen brother. Apparently, Chad's natural charisma that comes across on-camera seems to be a good fit for the ex-Confederate soldier who used that same charisma to quickly move up the ranks. Plus, Murray's a looker who could easily play the character as Jasper's described as a handsome, intimidating soul in the book. What do you think?

Another lead pick for the vampire role is Lucas Till. His youth and boyish good looks were reasons. I mean, he can definitely do the whole 20-year-old age thing as well as the pale skin, gold eyes and blonde hair, but do you think that he can pull-off the lack of self-control, what Jasper suffers from?

Also getting a few mentions and it doesn't surprise me simply because he's quite popular in Young Hollywood now is Zac Efron. I'm sure a bunch of Twilight fans would say that it'd be difficult to get past the Zac-ness of the actor in order to see Jasper as his character - what do you think?

Plus, a younger Johnny Depp got named as a great Jasper, due to his excellent acting skills and mysterious ways. Unfortunately, the adopted Cullen character transformed at the age of 20, so it's completely impossible, but still a good choice about 20 years ago! Interestingly, a bunch of people answered an older Depp for our re-casting series on Edward Cullen also.

Some other honorable mentions include Dustin Milligan from '90210' and Jared Padalecki from 'Supernatural'. After hearing these potential Jaspers, who's your top pick? Or do you have an even better actor to play the vampire role? Let us know your thoughts on this special Twilight re-casting series by leaving a comment below. And remember to always stop by Clevver TV for all of your Twilight Saga updates. I'm Dana Ward - thanks for watching the show - bye!
