Blood Count

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn and Part 2 gets some newbees

Maggie Grace ( Lost, The Fog, Taken) is to play vampire Irina, a member of the Denali coven, and 9-year-old newcomer  Mackenzie Foy is set to play Renesmee.. reports Deadline and EW.

Foy has appeared in an episode each of sci-fi drama FlashForward and comedy 'Til Death

In the books, Irina is a member of the Denali coven, considered cousins to the Cullen clan as the only other "vegetarian" vampire group and the origin of the myth of the succubus.

When Irina blames the Cullens for the death of her lover Laurent in the events portrayed in "New Moon", her actions set in motion a terrifying chain of events.

Renesmee is Bella and Edward's (Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson) half-vampire, half-human daughter who is able to read, talk, run and hunt despite being a toddler. She also considerably changes in age over the course of the story. How that will be pulled off is unknown
