Sorry not sorry, but I'm still mad at how they did Rachelle Lefevre, she was really looking forward to playing Victoria in Eclipse.

Also Xavier was so attractive, I wish his career had taken off a bit more

She was the only true Twilight fan of the cast and she would have been perfect. I can't take Bryce's Bictoria seriously

I don't remember where I saw her first but I even watched a lifetime/hallmark movie for her. I haven't followed her career lately but I'm gonna see what she's been up to

she had a really terrible white saviour show where she got her law degree in jail and proved she was wrongfully accused and then helped (mostly black) wrongly incarcerated people get their freedom.

I feel like I saw previews for that but never watched.

it was awful. her protege was a young black woman who podcasted about her boss' fight for justice after her own misjustice. her mentor was a famous black attorney but he was only important to help her solve the problem. it was....bad

Weird this is the first time I’ve seen people portray Rachelle as the victim, I feel like the narrative back in the day is she fucked up by booking a movie when she needed to be available for the twilight movies

I do think she was a better Victoria than Bryce

Maybe it was the people we were talking to to/around but everything I saw found Rachelle as the victim.

The start date of filming was set and she had signed onto another movie that wouldn't conflict. Then they kept pushing the Eclipse date further back.

Eta: I read up on again and the conflict was only 10 days. Summit didn't want to compromise so recast her

I feel like she had a really unique hair color

I don’t know what I’d call it, maybe a dustry strawberry blonde? It deff wasn’t the vibrant red like in the books which is fine

Especially after that amazing chase scene in New Moon, I was really looking forward to her in Eclipse
