The Deal with Ashley Greene, Kellan Lutz and 'Breaking Dawn'
Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz are seeking a better payday for their roles in “The Twilight Saga”, now that it’s uber-famous. But for their small roles and bigger demands, one of them may get cast aside.
Rumor has it that they’re breaking the last book up into two parts and most of the cast has already signed on for the fifth installment of the series. Except for Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz, who are holding out for more money.
Hollywood Reporter says:
But Summit is having a harder time locking in some of the franchise’s secondary characters. Deals for Peter Facinelli (who plays Carlisle Cullen) and Billy Burke (Bella’s father, Charlie Swan) are done, but we’re told the actors who play the Cullen kids (especially Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene) are trying to sink their teeth into bigger paydays that, at least at this point, the studio behind the billion-dollar franchise is unwilling to provide. “We may have a situation where one of them is thrown out on the street to make a point,” says a source close to the dealmaking.
But we’re told that the offers from Summit — which are said to be at least 10 times what the actors made on the first movie — were deemed “offensive” given the mega-money the franchise has generated.
I’m sure that fans would get over any future re-castings, just as long as you get your RobSten fix. Maybe they could get Ryan Phillippe to do Kellan’s part? What do you think?

I don't know if any of this is true or not, but hopefully we will hear officially what's going on soon...
