It's time to re-cast the Twilight Series' Bella Swan. Get ready right now!

Hey guys! Coming to you from the Clevver TV headquarters, I'm Dana Ward with a special re-casting series. Okay, again, it might sound silly to bring this up NOW as the sequels are being produced pronto, but we're asking who should we re-cast as the role of Bella Swan in the Twilight Saga. I mean, WHAT IF Kristen Stewart had passed on the project or something? Who would you choose to fill the role? Let's figure it out right now.

Right off the bat, a lot of Twilight blogs were wishing Australian actress Emily Browning would be officially named as the film-version of Bella. In fact, it pretty much seems like Browning was the next one in line. She's about a year and some change older than Stewart, a few inches shorter and can definitely keep up with in the film and tv credits department. Some people have said Kristen seemed very uncomfortable throughout the movie, yet Bella's character in the book is quite at peace with her introverted self and that Browning could better portray the character as she seems a bit more mature in her acting. What do you guys think about these two?

Another possible actress that fans have named as possibly taking over for Stewart is Alexis Bledel. She's known for her days on Gilmore Girls and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. With this choice, people have said that Kristen's aloofness was too much in the Twilight movie and that she didn't seem wise or sweet. However, that Alexis captures all of those character features to the T. I gotta say that Bledel is 8 or 9 years older than Stewart. Does this make you change your mind on the re-cast?

Emma Watson has also been named as being an excellent Bella Swan. I mean, even though she's officially taking a break from the biz to go to university, I'm thinking she might put it off for one-year just to finish out a series - and one so big - especially after being a part of the ever-popular Harry Potter movies. That aside, do you think the British Watson would be a good fit for the role. Could she better capture the emotion and anguish of Bella - the same that many criticized Kristen for not fulfilling - as Edward says he's leaving her? Let me know your thoughts.

And lastly, some other actresses who got shoutouts from you guys include Victoria Justice, Jena Malone, Ellen Page and Evan Rachel Wood. Do you think that any of these people would perfectly fit the role of Bella Swan? Or do you have a better choice up your sleeve? Definitely let us know by leaving a comment. Remember, you have to pick ONE actress as your Bella Swan.

  • Omg they r stupid,no one can play bella like Kristen!Kristen has to stay!!!

  • i never want kristen to leave, but if she did i would choose missy peregrym becase she looks exacxtly like her :)

  • I personally love Kristen as Bella...BUT Victoria Justice would be great I think

  • Emma Watson would be chosen if she hadn't portrayed Hermione Granger, if she had been in a low role film, she probably wouldn't be so popular.

  • Lucy Hale or Nina debrov

    I like Alexis as well though . As far has Emma

    She's stunning but I'm not sure exactly she could capture the Bella role for me honestly every time I see her I think of Harry Potter series

  • I think Alexis Bledel would have been an awesome fit!

  • Deffs Emma Watson

  • EMMA WATSON!

  • I do not like Kirsten Stewart every other character they have got perfectly except her. Then again I could not pick one of those girls to be the character.

  • NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. GOOD. F***ING. GLOB. NO. NO. NO! Kristen Stewart's acting career and persona has been practically tainted in minds of people everywhere. I wasn't a huge fan of her, but she's not a bad actress and she's really funny in interviews but portraying Bella Swan totally effed up her rep because she was playing this pretentious, apathetic character. The way Stewart played Bella IS THE CHARACTER. It shouldn't be remade! If ANY of these women are picked, I will crap a castle...
