Ashley Greene & Kellan Lutz Not Coming Back For ‘Breaking Dawn’ Installments?!

by OhEmGee on May 12, 2010

Twi-Drama, sit back and watch the claws fly!

Now that Summit Entertainment has worked hard to lock in the key faces to reprise their roles in the final installments of The Twilight Saga franchise — Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner. The independent studio is having some trouble with keeping other actors and actresses intact with the Breaking Dawn movies such as Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz (Cullen kids; Alice Cullen & Emmett Cullen).

Ashley and Kellan are reportedly asking for $4 million dollars each to reprise their roles in the Breaking Dawn movies compared to the $750,000-$1 million initially offered per film.

As any Twi-Hard would know the importance the roles both Ashley and Kellan play in the final novel greatly increase, but the question is… Do they deserve the pay check they’re asking for?

Thoughts?! Let us know what you think in the comments section!

    The movie is going to make a ton! The actors should get their fair share too.

  • Savanna

    noooooo. there way to greedy. if they leave then the whole movie will be ruined. do they want that on there backs. how selfish of them to ruin the WHOLE thing for the viewers

  • Miranda sweat

    Yes i think they deserve that paycheck. It’s the last installment of the twilight series and IT would be a HUGE MISTAKE to take them out now and recast them. Especially after all the hard work that they have put into the last 3 movies.Plus it would ruin the movie and the book to have them out of the picture. I for one love ashley greene and kellan lutz. There would be a lot of dissapointed fans out there if they aren’t in breaking dawn.

  • Bvill

    Althought it will be very dissappointing to fans that they won’t be in the next film, that actors are only hurting themselves. I mean before twilight no one knew who they were! And I think to continue launching thier career they should make the final movie. Who knows maybe thier replacement might be better & wash away any trace of Ashley & kellan. They owe it to thier fans to make the final installment! After all if it wasn’t for them Ashley would still be working at that hotel & kellan would be a nobody!

    i think it’s fair…. if the complete main stars are getting more… the other stars who also kindaa main in bd should get a fair share plus bd is gunnaa suffer bad if they walk. :S x

  • Rebecca

    I have to agree with you .. as much as i love them playin in twilight i wouldn’t have know who they were other wise … they should maybe settle for something lower then 4 mil.. and get on with the movie prodution… EVERYONE IS WAITING… and i hate for cast to be changed in series

  • ebbie

    I think that they should get what they’re asking for. This movie is gonna make a hell of a lot of dough, so why not? But at the same time, sometimes people can outbid themselves too. Maybe they should take a cut and ask for $3 million. I mean, thats still a nice paycheck. Why oh why do people have to be so greedy?

  • Claire

    Definitely need to get paid. New moon made a whopping $142 million in the opening weekend so there is no reason they can’t get their share. This is excluding any other merchandise that they have rights on! I will be severely dissapointed if either of them or any carachter in the saga has to change. And Alice is my absolute favourite!

  • LiZz

    i totally get where ashley and kellan are coming from, but geez! the movie is hard enough to get into anyway, they should be happy that they’ve had an important role and even gotten to be in the movie in the first place! if they leave, that will suck very, very badly. muy mala!

    Why does they need so much money?! I thought they were much better than that! But Summit needs them in the movie so I think they will pay but really bad of Ashley and Kellan!

  • michele

    THEY HVE ALREADY PUT FACES TO THE CHARACTERS N THE BOOKS FOR TONS OF PPL..ALICE N EMMETT ARENT LIKE VICTORIA..SHE WAS EASY TO REPLACE BC SHE ISNT SEEN MUCH UNTIL ECLIPSE..BUT THESE TWO BLOW UP N ECLIPSE N BREAKN DAWN..ITS PRETTY LAME THAT THE MOVIES AND EVERYTHNG ELSE THAT FOLLOWED HASNT GIVEN SUMMIT ENOUGH TO FORK OVER 4MIL FOR THESE 2..THEY KNW WITH IT BEING THE LAST MOVIE N WITH IT MAYB BREAKN INTO 2 MOVIES ITS GOING TO BRING N TONS OF MONEY

  • Teresa

    Ok the way I see it, is with how much money the movies has made then why not pay them what the main ones are getting paid. I mean Alice and Emmett roles are almost as big as the rest. Give them what they dersve. This movie will make more money then the others with it goig to be 2 movies. And yea Twilight did make them big but with all of them thier carees will go on without it. They both already has been in other movies. So I say give them the money to keep them in the movie. It will be strange to see someone else playing thier roles, and it might even hurt how much money the movie makes if they replace them.

    They should definately get the money they are asking for, the movie will make billions, so they should be paid accordingly they are just as important as the rest of the cast ….well only slightly less important than “the main characters” pay up I say !!!!!!!!!

  • Kari

    They do play a very important part at the end, and I say pay up, I’m sure Kristan, Robert, and Taylor are getting that if not more, pay up, I don’t want to lose Ashley or Kellan, they are my favs. I love them as Alice and Kellan and no one could replace them.

    • Kari

      Unless you were to use me as a replacement for Alice, then I wouldn’t mind that at all.

  • Kari

    Unless you were to use me as a replacement for Alice, then I wouldn’t mind at all.

  • summer

    yes. they deserve it.. the franchise had made so much money, and they are about to get more. who’s greedy now?? ashley and kellan are great playing the role of alice and emmett!!

  • Jenny

    I think it’s extremely crucial that both Ashley and Kellan are in Breaking Dawn. There isn’t anyone else that would be better to play these two parts and having 3 movies already made with the 2 of them it’s ridiculous to hire new actors. I wish the two of them were in it for the movie and didn’t care so much about the money, but this movie is also going to make a ton of money so if it’s what it takes to get them to sign on then I think they should go for it. As long as they aren’t making more money than those that are higher up than them and it doesn’t deplete the movies budget too much, they should go for it.

    hi i like your site,its cool..its my first time here..have a good day!!

  • Kikeep

    I dont think they should go because they have huge rolls and since I read the books i know whats gonna happen and alice and emmett have huge rolls. And plus they are going to make more money when the movie comes out since there are trillions of fans out there waiting to see the movie.
