"Bryce Dallas Howard will replace Rachelle Lefevre in the third instalment of the Twilight franchise, says Variety. The Terminator Salvation star has been recruited to take over the role of Victoria, a villainous vampire with a grudge against Bella (Kristen Stewart), in Eclipse. &amp;quot;We are incredibly happy that Bryce has agreed to come into the franchise,&amp;quot; said Erik Feig, Summit Entertainment&amp;#039;s President of Worldwide Production and Acquisitions. &amp;quot;Rachelle brought Victoria to great screen life and Bryce will bring a new dimension to the character. The franchise is lucky to have such a talented actress as Bryce coming in to fill the role.&amp;quot; It is understood that scheduling conflicts are behind Lefevre&amp;#039;s inability to reprise the role for a third time.  Eclipse will begin production in Vancouver next month, ahead of a June 30, 2010 release date. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
