Another Twlight Vampire Joins the Coven
March 30 2009, Published 7:40 a.m. ET
As filming for New Moon is underway, the cast is still being decided. But now one more character has a face: British 20-year-old Jamie Campbell-Bower says he's playing Volturi leader Caius in the next Twilight flick.
"You're the first people I've told," he tells BBC news. "Shooting has already started, and I'm going over in June."
For those not in the know when it comes to the cast of vampires, Caius is the leader of a group of Italian vampires, what could be called the "bad guys," as opposed to Edward Cullen and his family.
"I hadn't read the books before," admits Jamie. "But it's a great thing to be a part of, and it did very well last year."

The newcomer thinks Robert Pattinson's heartthrob crown is safe, however.
"I doubt I'll get the same sort of adulation as Robert – but it's always nice when people recognize you for your work," he confesses.
