"Twilight" saga cast "The Pacific" actor Rami Malek
Guess who will be joining the final film of the Twilight Saga? It's The Pacific actor Rami Malek.
Rami Malek was casted as the newest addition to the highly anticipated finale The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2. Malek said he looks forward to working together with Hollywood's newest power couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.
"I think it's going to be great. It's going to be super exciting and I'm thrilled," Malek told ET.
The Pacific actor will portray the vampire Benjamin from the Egyptian coven who coalesce with the Forks coven with the newly "turned" Bella to fight the invading Volturi.
Malek starred in "The Pacific" produced by Hollywood actor Tom Hanks. The series won an Emmy for Best Oustanding Mini-Series in the recently concluded Emmy Awards. He is also set to star with Hanks in the 2011 film "Larry Crowne."
Last month, Summit Entertainment confirmed that the final installment in the Twilight saga will be released a year after Breaking Dawn: Part 1 hit the theaters. The first installment of the final book's adaptation will hit the cinema on November 18, 2011 and Part 2 will be shown on November 16, 2012.
