Rami Malek Confirms Role as Benjamin in ‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn’

Posted August 31st, 2010 By: Team Switzerland 8 Comments »

Wow, some exciting news out of the gates today! This past Sunday at the Emmy’s, Rami Malek (star of War At Home, The Pacific, Night at the Museum, etc.) confirmed some news that has been speculated for the past few days – he has been cast in the role of Benjamin in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn! Check out his video confirmation with Entertainment Tonight below and scroll down if you need a refresher on who exactly Benjamin is:

Benjamin is a member of the Egyptian Coven who is described as a young boyish-looking vampire with midnight hair, olive pallor, and an oddly cheerful look. Benjamin has a gift of element manipulation and is able to physically influence the elements (earth, air, water, and fire).

And see all of Rami’s past credits on IMDB here.

I love this casting! I think Rami will do great. What do you think? Is Rami similar to the look you had in mind for the role of Benjamin?

    For me, he looks EXACTLY as I pictured Benjamin. Maybe he’s a little older than my initial imagination but now that I see him, he will fit this role perfectly.

      Agreed – he’s a little older than I imagined, but I can completely see him in the part.

    Another adorable cast member. I am happy for him, he seems excited to be a part of the Twi Saga. I think he is perfect for the role of Benjamin. Cannot wait to see who the rest of the cast of vampires will be.
