This media alert just came in from the PR team of Laurence Fuller (Lovers Jump). It seems Fuller, is under consideration for a new lead role in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1. The report stated that Fuller’s character is described as “a brooding misanthropic vampire.” This is character is reminiscent of just about any vampire character we’ve come across from Buffy the Vampire Slayer to True Blood.
Although the words “in consideration” doesn’t hold much water in Hollywood at the end of the day, it’s obvious that everyone is gunning to be the next big Twilight and teen sex icon. And, a little free Internet buzz never hurt anyone. Donald Glover (Community, 30 Rock) recently was the subject of a major Internet campaign to get the writer/comedian to star in the next Spider-Man feature. Although Fuller hardly has the status of Glover in the States, he does have the edgy look of a Twilight vamp.
According to Fuller’s PR team, he is touted as the next big thing coming out of Australia and London, after his critically West End debut in March. The alert also went on to state that Fuller was also recently under consideration for Peter Parker in Spiderman 4, Orlando Blooms replacement in Pirates Of The Caribbean 4 and currently under consideration for lead roles in The Hobbit and Judge Dredd.
Fuller is repped by Scott Fish Vital Management Group in LA, Williams Bulldog Management in the UK and Woodburn Sweitzer Management in Australia.
