YAHOO MOVIES: TOP 20 STARS UNDER 20
Two ‘Twilight’/'New Moon’ cast members, and possibly a third (depending on the cast list), have made Yahoo! Movies’ list of the “Top 20 Stars Under 20″. Read below to see who made the cut:
KRISTEN STEWART
Age: 18
Last Project: Twilight
Upcoming Project: Adventureland, New Moon
Total Domestic Box Office Gross: $419,381,120Though Kristen Stewart got her first mainstream break playing Jodie Foster’s diabetic daughter in “Panic Room,” she rose to A-list status after starring in “Twilight.” For the sequel, “New Moon,” she will reportedly pull down $12 million plus a cut of the profits. Not bad for someone who can’t legally drink.
TAYLOR LAUTNER
Age: 17
Last Project: Twilight
Upcoming Project: New Moon
Total Domestic Box Office Gross: $311,190,718Taylor Lautner has come a long way since playing the aquatic hero of 2005′s “The Adventures of Shark Boy and Lava Girl.” He’s put on over 25 pounds of muscle to play the bulked-up Jacob Black in “New Moon.” Not that he needed protection from bullies to begin with. By the age of twelve, he won three karate Junior World Championships.
DAKOTA FANNING
Age: 15
Last Projects: Push, Coraline
Upcoming Movies: Winged Creatures
Total Domestic Box Office Gross: $687,990,703Dakota Fanning is an old pro in the industry. She first appeared on the silver screen in the “I Am Sam” in 2001 and has built up an impressive resume: “Man on Fire,” “War of the Worlds” and “The Secret Life of Bees.” Though it hasn’t been made official, Dakota might be playing a role in “New Moon,” the sequel to “Twilight.”

I think it’s great that Kristen, Taylor, and Dakota all made the list. I think Kristen and Taylor are the only main cast members under 20, so I’m sure if more were younger, they’d have made the list too. I think it’s well deserved, too!
What do you think of this list? Do you think that all three deserved to grab a spot on the list?
