Indeed, the Twilight series boasts its fair share of good looking actors which in turn translates to even better looking vampires on-screen. Glamour Magazine tends to agree, naming several of the Twilight Saga’s movie vampires among their “31 Sexiest Movie Vampires” list.

The following characters made the cut:

31. “Alec” (by Cameron Bright)

29. “Victoria” (by Rachelle Lefevre and Bryce Dallas Howard)

27. “Demetri” (by Charlie Bewley)

25. “Alice Cullen” (by Ashley Greene)

24. “Carlisle Cullen” (by Peter Facinelli)

22. “Jasper Hale” (by Jackson Rathbone)

19. “Rosalie Hale” (by Nikki Reed)

17. “Caius” (by Jamie Campbell Bower)

10. “Riley Biers” (by Xavier Samuel)

4. “Emmett Cullen” (by Kellan Lutz)

1. “Edward Cullen” (by Robert Pattinson)

You can click the number links above to see the individual entries for each selection. Are there any other vampires from the Twilight series you would’ve chosen? I might’ve added “James” or “Laurent.” No doubt, after Breaking Dawn hits theaters, “Bella Cullen” will be making the list!

I know none of us are shocked about number one but I have very happy to see Riley so high on the list! All of our Cullen men made the the list so that is a total win in my book.

Fangango’s poll of the Most Anticipated Summer Action Hero and Movie Villain put our Bryce Dallas Howard as Victoria in Eclipse as the most anticipated villain of the summer movies. She scored 31% of the vote, with Micky Rourke from Iron Man 2 at 29%.

On the villain side of things…I mean, c’mon – is there anyone we despise more than Bryce Dallas Howard’s Victoria in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse? This is Howard’s first go at the role (the character was previously played by Rachelle Lefevre in both New Moon and Twilight), and so fans will need to warm up (or down) to her. That said, even with Howard taking over the role for the first time, fans are still more than pumped to see her run all sorts of naughty deeds with the character

Here is the IMDB bio for Bryce Howard, who Summit has announced will replace Rachelle Lefevre as Victoria in Eclipse:

Bio of Bryce Dallas Howard (from IMDB)
Date of Birth 2 March 1981, Los Angeles, California, USA

Height -5′ 8″ (1.73 m)

Bryce Dallas Howard was born on March 2, 1981, in Los Angeles, California. She was conceived in Dallas, Texas (the reason for her middle name). Her father, named Ron Howard, is a former actor turned Oscar-winning director. Her mother is actress and writer Cheryl Howard (nee Alley). Her famous relatives include her uncle, actor Clint Howard, and her grandparents, actor Rance Howard and actress Jean Speegle Howard. She also has two younger twin sisters, named Jocelyn and Paige, born in 1985, and a brother, Reed Howard, born in 1987.

Howard was raised in Greenwich, Connecticut, because her parents decided to raise their four children as far away from the trappings of showbiz milieu as possible. During most of her childhood she really did not have much access to a TV. She attended Greenwich Country Day School, and Byram Hills High School in Armonk, New York. At that time, she discovered existentialism and devoured books by Albert Camus and Jean-Paul Sartre. She attended the prestigious Steppenwolf School and Stagedoor Manor Performing Arts camp at Catskills together with her friend Natalie Portman. She applied to drama school as Bryce Dallas, dropping her last name to eschew special treatment because of association with her renown father. From 1999-2003, she studied at the Stella Adler Conservatory and at the New York University Tisch School of Arts and graduated with a BFA degree in Drama in 2003. At that time, she performed in Broadway productions of classical plays by George Bernard Shaw, William Shakespeare and Anton Chekhov.

Young Howard appeared in three of her father’s films as an extra, including her appearance as a child together with her mother in Apollo 13 (1995). She made her feature-film debut as Heather, a supporting role in Book of Love (2004) by director Alan Brown. Director M. Night Shyamalan was impressed by her performance in a Broadway play and cast her without an audition as a female lead in his two thrillers: The Village (2004) and Lady in the Water (2006). Howard replaced Nicole Kidman in Dogville (2003) sequel, Manderlay (2005). She stars as Rosalind in As You Like It (2006), a reprise of her stage role that made such an impression on Shyamalan. She is also billed as Gwen Stacy in the third installment of the Spider-Man franchise, Spider-Man 3 (2007).
