Is Jamie Campbell-Bower Stealing Rob’s Thunder?

“Life certainly seems easy for Robert Pattinson.

He stars in popular movies, he’s ogled at by women everywhere, he goes home to Kristen Stewart almost every night.

But the man that plays Edward Cullen is always looking over his shoulder, wondering who the next young stud that threatens his place in the Hollywood pecking order will be.

Enter Jamie Campbell-Bower.

This rising star is also British, also dons wild hair and has also landed a critical role in New Moon, one directly opposed to that of Pattinson. Campbell-Bower will play Caius, the leader of the Volturi. It’s safe to say that he and Cullen don’t agree on one major issue:

Edward wants to love Bella, while Caius was to kill Bella. Awkward!

Who will win the battle between Campbell-Bower and Pattinson? The latter is next starring in a random movie called Remember Me, while the former will portray Gellert Grindelwald in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Advantage, Jaime? You tell us.”

Then another article say…

This is from the London Paper…

“COULD this tousled blond Londoner be the new teen heart-throb?

Remember where you saw him first, because 21-year-old Jamie Campbell-Bower is being feted as the Next Big Thing.

The model-cum-singer-cum-actor is set to follow in the footsteps of tween hunk Robert Pattinson by appearing in the highly anticipated Twilight film sequel, New Moon , as the volatile Volturi ruler Caius.

And he will also be starring in the final two Harry Potter films as Gellert Grindelwald.

Campbell-Bower, who went to posh Bedales school and was a member of the National Youth Music Theatre, has already been seized upon by US gossip blogger Perez Hilton as the hottest new London export.

He has yet to come to mainstream attention, though he has appeared in Sweeney Todd opposite Johnny Depp and in Guy Ritchie’s RocknRolla.

And he doesn’t just act – he’s also frontman in his own band, The Darling Buds (no, not the 80s Welsh indie outfit) and was formerly signed to Select Model Management.

Campbell-Bower’s first role was playing the French mouse in a production of Alice in Wonderland. “I think I always sort of had the calling,” he says. “That sounds so f**king generic and cheesy, but it’s true! I always had the idea that I wanted to perform. I love being the centre of attention – and I always love talking about myself.”

We think that’s probably just as well.”
