Calling all Twi-Hards! The latest rumor to come out of the “Twilight” movie baby-mama-drama is that soon-to-be 15 year-old actress Dakota Fanning is coming on board as Volturi vampire bad-ass Jane for “New Moon“.

A source reveled to E! Online:

“There were no auditions. They just offered it to her outright, and now they’re in negotiations. They’ve been going back and forth.”

Fanning is likely to take this role due to the fact that she already has ties to the studio behind the movie, Summit Entertainment. Summit was also the studio who produced Fanning in “Push” which is due out later this year.

Hopefully, the negotiations won’t end in Fanning sucking more out of the already small budget of $50 million. Considering the cost to make shape-shifting werewolves, a trip to Italy, and a yellow Porshe will take a fair chunk of that money (not to mention Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart raking in $10 million each), there won’t be much left to persuade more veteran (and therefore more expensive) actors to join the fun.

Twilighters took to the web in masses-some even starting online petitions-in favor of casting Fanning in the role of Jane. For those two or three of you not familiar with the character of Jane in the “Twilight” saga, she is a member of the Volturi (an old vampire sect who keeps the other immortals of the world in check) who has the ability to inflict great pain upon people without touching them. This reminds me so much of having to endure her screaming throughout “War of the Worlds“. Since Fanning already has practice inflicting pain using only her acting chops, she will likely do well in the role.

She has always freaked me out. Yes, I admit I am scared of her. On my list of things that scare Cara she is a close third. Snakes, Bowling (rented two tone shoes are terrifying!) and Dakota Fanning.
