He is gorgeous and has an amazing voice. And in that video, I think his vibe was more "androgynous rockstar". I mean, Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom both wear tons of jewelry, and neither one of them are gay. Not that that's a bad thing, I'm just sayin', that's the vibe I got. But he is beautiful enough to play a vampire!!

is it just me or does he have a gay vibe in this video. i have nothing against gay's but i'm just sayin. his body language, all the rings, unbuttoned shirt, the necklace.
I'm not saying he is so please dont throw stones at me.
it's kinda funny since there have been people saying they think Aro is gay.

Actually, I don't think he's gay at all. Watch the way he moves his hands, I think he's trying to be like Johnny Depp.

I never really pictured the Volturi as old, I pictured them young (like most other vampires) but with an old soul type feel. And I think Jamie can pull that off, if not, he's still gorgeous.

yes. i took 'white hair' as platinum blonde.

i didn't picture him to look this young though, maybe a guy in his older 20s. jamie is really young looking, he looks about the same age as jane & alec IMO, but i think he can pull it off. he's a really cute guy , i can picture it. i have no complaints.

I have seen Sweeney Todd many times, and Jamie Campbell-Bower's performance as Antony was truly amazing. He is a great actor with a great voice. I do, however, have some conflicting images of the Cauis I have in my head and Jamie (but of course, there is no way to get into everyone's head and find actors who fit exactly to how EVERYONE pictures that character). First of all, I see Cauis as much older than 20s and the age differences between Jamie and the actors portraying Aro and Marcus only add to my mental conflict. I see Cauis, if not the same age, older than Aro and Marcus. Secondly, my Cauis is not really that nice to look at. Jamie is an attractive person. And finally, the thin and wispy voice that I always hear from my mental Cauis is definitely NOT Jamie's (he has a beautiful voice). Otherwise, I believe that (as an actor) Jamie should be able to impress us all over again, even more impressive if he succeeds this time, since Cauis and Antony from Sweeney Todd are quite opposite (actually, Cauis's character reminds me of Judge Turpin ).

So you'd rather have Alan Rickman play Caius? HAHAHA just kidding! I think Jamie will do just fine, after all almost all vamps in Stephenie's world are beautiful (I say almost because James is described as "nondescript"--Stephenie says on her website that it's because he was not very attractive as a human) And Jamie is, judging by Sweeney Todd, a decent actor. I don't think Caius should be that difficult a role, he just has to be angry at everything. I think I'll be satisfied, anyway.

^Ohhhhhhhh, Alan Rickman is my dream Alistair.

I agree 1000 percent!! I thought of him immediately when I was reading about Alistair in BD! Glad I'm not the only one.

Hey--if he plays Alistair, then we'd have three HP actors in the Twilight Saga movies (Jamie is playing Grindewald in the last movies)

And now you see how I got back on topic!

Alan Rickman would be a pretty cool Alistear!
Gary Oldman had to be Aro, just how I pictured him.
It's sad he isn't.
That would be so cool...

I love Jamie as Caius, but I do like him as Grindewald too.
He's a good actor. :]

Your banner! That Jasper quote!! That's like one of my favorites out of the entire saga!! I love it!!

And Jamie is amazing--I only wish Caius had occasion to sing because his voice is...OMJ! I love it. I'm going to youtube it right now. Later!
