Summit nails 'Twilight' cast

February 19, 2008 Summit Entertainment has set its ensemble cast for "Twilight," the vampire genre-bender that is one of the biggest bets for the nascent studio. Peter Facinelli ("Riding In Cars with Boys," "Damages"), Elizabeth Reaser ("The Family Stone") and Jackson Rathbone ("The O.C") have been cast as vampires opposite the two main characters. "Twilight," a vampire tale that also contains strong elements of a high-school romance, tells the story of a girl (Stewart) who moves to a small town in Washington state to live with her father and is drawn to a mysterious classmate named Edward Cullen (Pattinson) who turns out to be a vampire.
