I don't know..maybe it was mentioned in the book somewhere but I could have sworn they were caucasian..

This is the website for open auditions for the movie
http://www.auditionsopen.com/casting.php?id=189845
And it says their ethnicity is Hispanic

I mean..I know none of them have blonde hair, but does anyone know if they really are all Hispanic? Because Weber, Yorkie and Stanley don't sound like Hispanic names at all...

It's not that I'm racist against Hispanics..but it's just unrealistic that in Forks, a small town in Washington, would have three Hispanics in one school, in one grade, and all hang out in the same group. Also, again with the names..Weber is a German last name and Stanley is English. I don't know about Yorkie..but that doesn't sound Hispanic to me..

And uh..according to the books Eric has black hair, Angela has light brown and Jessica has brown hair.

It may just be a way for the directors to add some more variety in the characters ethnicities, because let's just face it. No offense, but having nothing but white people (not counting the natives) is just boring.

Hmm. Thats odd...I dont mind, but it may look strange. I can picture Eric, and maybe jessica, but not Angela, for sure.

Could it be a mistake?

Yeah, my guess is that they want to put more variety in the ethnicities. But lived in a small town in Idaho for a bit, which is fairly close to a small town in Washington. I can tell you how many Hispanic people I saw there. Actually..I can't, because there weren't any xD

And hey, Ben is Asian! There's a non white guy right there! :RofL:

Actually, Asians are considered (supposed to be) white. Learned that a while ago in one of my classes. But they (the producers) might also be trying to appeal the the hispanic crowd by adding hispanic characters. Or something like that.

I'm not sure, but I think it has something to do with having light colored skin.

What the heck, Asians and Caucasians are in no way similar! Except for the fact they both have 'asian' in their name..
