Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz would require 4 million US$ each by film to play in the two feature films inspired by Breaking Dawn, the final chapter of The Twilight Saga.

The actors of the franchise currently renegotiate their contracts to play in these the last two films of the series. Several actors who occupy of the roles of support – but important anyway – wish to obtain more money.

Greene and Lutz would be made draw the ear and would not have concluded yet an agreement. Late on Tuesday, certain media reported that they wished both to obtain 4 million US$ per film. Other sources speak rather about 1 million US$.

According to EW.com, Nikki Reed and Jackson Rathbone wanted to also obtain a strong pay rise. Reed however would have changed opinion. Her contract should be soon signed in a formal way. She would receive finally from 750.000 US$ to 1 million US$ per feature film. In this moment, we are unaware of where are the talks between the firm Summit Entertainment and Rathbone.

In films of the Twilight series, Greene and Lutz profit obviously from a less presence to the screen than the stars Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. They affirm however to spend as much time to make the promotion of the feature films as the three major actors. They thus believe to deserve an increase.

The information reported by the media comes from various anonymous sources. The studio Summit Entertainment and the spokesperson of the actors refused to emit their comments or quite simply could not be contacted. This is what MTV News indicates.

The American film and television actors Kellan Lutz (who can be seen as Emmett Cullen in the Twilight franchise) and Samuel L. Jackson are in talks to play in Deathgames, an independent action film.

In Deathgames, a young man (played by Kellan Lutz) is kidnapped and forced to take part in matches of modern gladiators where the participants fight until death for the pleasure of sadistic Internet viewers. Jackson will orchestrate the games from his computer with the assistance of twin girls who will meet with all his desires.

Note that the motion picture will be produced for the company Motion Picture Corporation of America.

Jonah Loop, who is a specialist in special effects (who worked on the motion pictures Collateral, A Perfect Getaway) will make his beginnings as a director with this project. The filming should start soon in Louisiana.

Michael Hultquist, Tony Giglio and Robert Martinez wrote the scenario which was re-examined by Jonah Loop.

Jackson could be seen on May 7th in Iron Man 2 whereas Lutz is starred in the remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street which will be released next week in the North American Box Office.
