UPDATE: Dakota acknowledges that she is in discussions for the role.

Now that the Vanessa Hudgens rumor has been debunked, we’re moving on to an actress with a bit more film cred.

If the E! Online report is true, Dakota Fanning may be joining the cast of the Twilight sequel. According to sources, the Man on Fire star has been offered a role without even having to audition.

If negotiations go well, the 14-year-old will play Jane, a member of the Volturi vampires. While it may be hard to imagine Fanning as a bloodsucker, the character has been described as a petite blonde with a childlike voice and “Botticelli angel-like face.”

Production on New Moon is scheduled to begin in March.
