Eclipse maria eclipse catalina sandino moreno Maria has Been Cast in Eclipse: Catalina Sandino Moreno casting Maria, who tries to create an army of newborn vampires in Eclipse, has just been cast and the role goes to actress Catalina Sandino Moreno.

This according to the RiskyBusuinessBlog, which has been spot-on with earlier breaking stories.

The Colombian-born Sandino Moreno most notably starred in “Grace,” in which she played a pregnant teacher who becomes a drug mule, as well as Steven Soderbergh’s epic “Che” and the upcoming indie drama “Frail,” in which she plays the title character, who’s described as a naive Midwestern girl.

So, do you think she fits the role as you imagined while reading Eclipse?

    I agree. she’s actually suppose to be a White-Mexican like Ana de la Reguera (google she’s perfect) and Maria has a sister who is a blond like the singer Belinda but this girl looks more how I pictured Emily, besides she’s “Big” when maria suppose to be short pixie form like Alice

    Summit Casting is sucking as it goes Eclipse. xP

    Actually this girl looks more how I pictured Emily “rounder” figure motherly sweet ect. Maria I pictured to look like Winona Ryder short dark hair & eyes but with an accent which would be Ana de la Reguera to perfection. http://mega.tv/images/Ana%20de%20la%20Reguera.jpg

    The people they casted for Leah & Seth are Asians they even look different from the rest of the native actors already casted

    Tyler Posey is still my Seth and Crystle Lighting is better for Leah not this Julia Jones girl!!! How can they pass up on Crystle!!! completely pissed off

    grrrr oh well I just hope they dip this girl in powder like they did Nikki Reed to get that vampire Vixen Look & is not like she has a big part but if they give her more playing time & have her talk I’ll be mad and they need to use eyelid tape on that BooBoo guy & change hair style

    OMG Thank you!! I soooooo totally agree with you! I was going off about this to everyone. Why a Columbian for a Mexican, like there aren't enough good Mexican actresses out there. Like you said, no offense to her or anyone Columbian. Its just that she is like the only Mexican character and they had to choose another nationality. Just because Columbian is “hispanic” it isn't the same as Mexican. ….sigh…. I just get so worked up about this. But I am sooo glas someone else feels the same way!
