It’s (finally!) official: Dakota Fanning is getting her fangs.

The 15-year-old actress is set to star in New Moon as Jane ? a sinister vampire with an angelic exterior who works for the Volturi, a rep for Summit Entertainment confirms to PEOPLE.

Filming of Twilight sequel is set to begin in Vancouver later this month. The movie hits theaters in November.

“We did just get a script. We’re shooting the rest of the films back to back,” says Nikki Reed, who plays Rosalie Hale in the film. “(Director) Chris Weitz is amazing and I think it’s going to be wonderful.” ? Michelle Tan and Lisa Ingrassia

My opinion? Well, I’ll admit I’ve been seeing Dakota Fanning as an adult trapped in a “girl” ‘s body and voice, not sure if I liked it or not. I think I find it disturbing a little but as soon as I see her on a screen, WOW. She is simply an amazing actress.

Will she be good as Jane? NO, she’ll be brillant, like she always is. I would have never thought such a popular actress, would accept a small part like Jane’s. Ok, you’re gonna say it’s not a small part. I kind of agree. It’s a master peice character in the book, but I meant, screentime wise. So if Dakota Fanning accepted, I’m guessing it’s for more than the money. Now I’m curious to see who’ll play Alec next to her.
