However, Nikki TOTALLY gets/plays Rosalie's character dead on. She's great with the whole diva/superbitch attitude. Looking forward to seeing New Moon. ;)
I have ALWAYS been a fan of Scarlett's. She is so beautiful.

I didn't have the pleasure of reading the books before knowing about the movie..so I didn't have a picture of Rosalie in my head before the role was cast. However, I like Nikki's interpretation of the role thus far. I am not feeling the blonde wig at all though this go around but we will have to see once the film is finished with the lighting effects and such.

You know Katherine Heigl could have done Rosalie. She has the attitude for it...I like her in Roswell

Interesting! I never would've thought about Heigl for Rosalie before, but now that you mention it...I could see it. She even has the dark eyes. Hmm...

Did you guys see that Nikki made MAXIM's hot 100 list? She's #42 Anyway I thought it was kind of neat, and I love that thanks to the success of Twiligt she's getting attention (like our other actors/actresses who were mostly unkown before this.)

scarlett definately would have been a brilliant choice for the role, she could pull of the sexy bitchy rosalie, acting wise and looks wise. But rosalies character has more to it than just that, and thats why you need an actor that can adapt to rosalie better. I prefer nikki as rosalie, though i can see where your both coming form. Nikki, shes got the bitchy side down to a T (kitchen bowl smashing scene, priceless.....) but in later films, i can see her affectionately holding baby renesmee in her arms, and the audience really being able to tell that she loves her, even through all her cold heartedness.

and when it comes to that, to having to CHANGE rosalies character significantly...all im saying is that you need someone who can pull of a character with a lot of faces, and I dont think scarlett could do that, whereas I think Nikki can. We have seen kirsten, Nikki and Rachelle be a little protective or motherly over younger cast members, taylor lautner at times, and now im sure it will include dakota fanning, so we KNOW she can pull it off.

Attitude-wise, Nikki hit Rosalie's character on the head. Perfect, but looks-wise she seemed strange looking with the light blonde hair and pale skin. Nikki's overall coloring is dark and it just looked like the makeup people were trying too hard. I imagined Rosalie as an 18 year old version of Brande Roderick (PB Playmate/Celeb Apprentice).

I agree with you. With regard to pulling of the somewhat bitchy attitude of Rosalie, Nikki played it perfectly. You could really see that Rosalie absolutely hated Bella, and wished her far away. And she is beautiful. But her hair and make up were not good. Especially the hair. But it looks a lot better for New Moon, I think. At least her hair does.

Yes, I agree.
She did very well and the hair DID improve.
