Today, Summit Entertainment sent the Twilight fandom into overdrive by releasing official images of New Moon's Volturi vampires. Marcus, Caius, Aro, Jane, and Alec are now all available for your viewing pleasure and, we have to admit, they look pretty awesome.
Placed in front of an atmospheric backdrop worthy of vampires everywhere, the Volturi look nothing less than creepy. Pale and menacing is the look Summit's gone for, and it's worked much better than we thought it would. Dakota Fanning looks particularly accurate as Jane, as does Cameron Bright, who's playing her twin brother Alec.
Michael Sheen, Christopher Heyerdahl, and Jamie Campbell Bower complete the Volturi, as ancient leaders Aro, Marcus, and Caius. Bower looks especially good, with slicked back blonde hair, and a black cloak to rival Dracula's. For anyone who thought New Moon would be all bark and no bite, think again — the vampires are back in business.
