Catalina Sandino Moreno to Play "Maria"

Catalina Sandino Moreno has been added to the cast of Eclipse!!!

Word is she will be playing "Maria", the vampire who "turns" Jasper so he can help her build an army of vampires for her to conquer and reign land. Where have we seen her? Well... She was the protagonist in

Maria Full of Grace

which I believe (correct me if I’m wrong) her performance in this movie got her an Oscar nomination. I own this movie and it’s actually one of my faves!

She's also been seen in

Che (2008),

Love in the Time of Cholera (2007) and

Fast Food Nation (2006).

Catalina will be playing a small role in the saga (probably involving a flashback or a memory while Jasper explains his past), but I’m happy she joined the cast.

Me likey!
