"The Insider" has confirmed that a "90210" star has auditioned for the role of Heidi in 'New Moon,' the upcoming sequel to the mega-hit 'Twilight.'

Sources tell us that AnnaLynne McCord, who also stars in "Nip/Tuck," has auditioned for the role, a character known as a "fisher" that brings humans to the Volturi vampires to feast upon, using her stunning looks as bait. There is no word yet on whether or not McCord has actually been cast yet.

The role is not very large, so it will be more like a cameo if McCord joins the production. She'd also be in familiar company, as "90210" co-star Kellan Lutz played Emmett in the first film and will return for the sequel.

'The Golden Compass' and 'About a Boy' director Chris Weitz takes on the helm for the sequel, with filming scheduled to begin next month in Vancouver and Italy with the returning Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. The film has a November 20 release date.

  • Second poster: not meaning to critize too hard here, however I believe that first poster IS correct IMO. Ms C Hardwick was at one time, the step mom of Ms NReed. I personally felt there was major nepotism occuring when Ms Reed was cast as Rose, even...

  • FYI: nepotism involves a familial relation between the two parties. I believe the word you're looking for is FAVORITISM. If you're going to go around trashing people, at least don't make yourself sound like an idiot in the process.
