"And the coveted role of Edward and Bella&amp;apos;s daughter in Breaking Dawn goes to...Mackenzie Foy!\r\nAuthor Stephenie Meyer announced the news Wednesday via Twilight&amp;apos;s official Facebook page.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Very excited about our new Renesmee, Mackenzie Foy,&amp;quot; Meyer, 36, wrote. &amp;quot;She&amp;apos;s an amazing young actress and I&amp;apos;m excited to work with her. I hope everyone had an enjoyable summer!&amp;quot;\r\nThe bright-eyed newcomer landed the part of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart&amp;apos;s onscreen daughter with only a handful of acting credits on her resume: a small role on an episode of &amp;apos;Til Death in 2009 and a one-episode stint on Flash Forward in 2010.\r\n\r\nFoy has also appeared in ads for Gap, Burger King and Garnet Hill.\r\nSo how will the 9-year-old actress portray the half-human, half-vampire child, who ages a full 17 years in only seven?\r\n\r\nWhen she was first considered for the role in September, Entertainment Weekly speculated that director Bill Condon &amp;quot;will employ similar digital effects to those used by David Fincher in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, where Foy&amp;apos;s face would be digitally transferred onto the face of a younger child. It&amp;apos;s also probable that the studio will hire a younger child in some capacity, too.&amp;quot;\r\nTell Us: Are you excited to see Mackenzie bring Renesmee to life?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
