The Character
Name: Leah Clearwater
Type: Human/Werewolf
Special Ability: None unique only to Leah except those abilities that are common to werewolves: telepathy with his pack, delayed aging, advanced healing, senses, endurance, durability & strength.
About Them: Leah Clearwater is the daughter of Harry and Sue Clearwater. Leah is the older sister of Seth Clearwater and is the ex-girlfriend of Sam Uley. Leah is the only female member of the La Push werewolf pack. Leah and Seth transformed into werewolves during the events of New Moon. Leah is described as beautiful in an exotic way with perfect copper skin, glistening black hair, and eyelashes "like feather dusters." As a werewolf, Edward describes Leah as a "smaller grey wolf." Leah is angry and bitter as a result of her broken heart after Sam imprinted on her second cousin, Emily. She has a quick temper and often uses the pack's mental connection to remind the other werewolves of things they would rather forget about Sam and Leah. Despite her anger and pain, Leah demonstrates considerable loyalty to her pack and protectiveness of her brother.
Their Early History: Werewolves in the Twilight universe do not age, as long as they regularly phase into wolves. They heal quickly, have enhanced physical speed and strength, and can communicate telepathically with each other while in their wolf forms. It is later revealed that the Quileute tribe "werewolves" are not true werewolves because they don't transform according to the lunar cycle. Instead, they are shape-shifters who take the form of wolves, while the "Children of the Moon" were considered true werewolves.

ReplyDeletei totally agree,
ReplyDeleteshe looks WAY to old to play leah!
i thought she was supposed to be pretty.......
ReplyDeleteyou guys are so mean. I think she's a perfect Leah. She's beautiful (in an exotic way) and might even be able to potray Leah's extremely tough side.
ReplyDeleteshe is really pretty. i liked her in that movie 'Black Cloud'. She doesn't look old it's just the photo
ReplyDeletei completely agree. she is an amazing girl. i think personally that in my head as a was reading the books that she is the exact person i would want to play Leah!. she has the look and can really play the tough girl act and stuff and will have no prob play Sam's old lover.
ReplyDeletewell she's going to be way better than vanessa hudgens now that would have screwed up the movie her and her twinkle toes.
ReplyDeleteNah she was supposed to "used to be pretty" but shes quite nice. Still should have been Vanessa Hudgens.
ReplyDeleteSHES AN AWSOME ACTRESS WHO WILL DO VERY WELL IN THE ROLE SO ALL YOU HATERS GET A CLUE!
ReplyDeleteI thought she was supposed to look Native American...oh wait, she does look Native American, nice! At least they got the look right for ONE member of the La Push pack =] Vanessa Hudgens, that is hilarious. Cute girl, not at all what I pictured, nor does she resemble a native in any way. In my opinion Julia Jones is very pretty...unfortunatly everybody has different opinions. Of the three main characters, I find only one the least bit attractive, and none but her even come close to the three I pictured. I'm so glad the casting director got Leah right! Hopefully she pulls everything else off!
ReplyDeleteshe is very beautiful young lady.
ReplyDeleteYAY!!! She's from Massachusetts!!!
ReplyDeleteShe is definitely pretty. She looks exactly like that girl Johanna on the Real World, the one who dated Wes. I'm sure she'll do a great job. Casting has been done well up to this point. I'm sure it will continue to be done well.
ReplyDeletei think shes way too old for leah i mean isnt she supposed to be younger and she is sorta pretty but still
ReplyDeleteThats because she is way to old!?! :)
ReplyDeleteyeah, she does look kind of old, i'm just glad Vanessa Hudgens isn't playing her [Leah], she better be good!
ReplyDeleteShe's around 29 years old, so that's probably why you think she looks old. Isn't Leah suposed to be about twenty years old? But, yes, she does look like a person I would imagine to play Leah. :)And, yeah, my name's Julia, too, so that's cool! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with that she looks a bit old...but shes ok
ReplyDeleteI don´t think there are so many with the perfect "quiluete-look" or Clearwater-look...or something.
SHE IS PRETTY DONT PICK A BOOK BYE ITS COVER ITS JUST A PIC> BUT THINK ABOUT IT HER ACTING SKILLS WILL SHOW YOU SHE CAN PLAY AS A CLEARWATER
ReplyDeletehow about q orianka kilcher.i met her in santa fe,shes gorgeous and personable. charles goode
ReplyDeletethis isnt who i woulda pictured playing Leah tbh :(
ReplyDeleteshes beautiful but i heard a rumor saying it might be her or megan fox. i hope its her megan fox is already too famous
ReplyDeleteurghhh!! ugly!! she's too short and too old to play leah.. i would have wanted vanessa from gossipgirl play leah clearwater.
ReplyDeleteWay to old to play Leah Vannessa Hudgens would've been better
ReplyDeleteholy crap she is 26
ReplyDeletevannessa hudgens doesnt even look native american you retard
ReplyDeletethe top pic she looks ugly the second she looks great bt ii think shes not a leah
ReplyDeleteshe does not suit 4 the role of Leah! sorry Julia! and wat a disgusting pic of her! she needs to go back 2 modelling! seriously!
ReplyDeleteyeah if you compare her and booboo stewart she could be like his mom. and aren't they supposed to be close in age? really they could have done better
ReplyDeletei think julia is really pretty and all but not all that good for leah shes just to slutty megan fox would of been a good leah even though shes a little to pretty and preppy also thought kristen kruek should of played emily
ReplyDeleteps hate sam!
She's so beautiful !!! i like her !!!
ReplyDeleteShe doesn't look too old, go look up some more pictures of her. Julia's absolutely fucking gorgeous stop hating on her.
ReplyDeletejulia is an amazing actress.haas been since she was a kid in our school plays!! yes its true i went to elementary school with her
ReplyDeleteLeah in the movie is suppose to be Sam's Age
ReplyDeleteTINSEL CORY IS OLDER THAN HER YOU IDIOTS
ReplyDeleteI think she looks to old for leah but hey none of the characters look how i pictured thenm in the books so as long s she can play leah well it'll be fine nd sam looks kinda old too so they had to get someone his age since they are suppose to be the same age i think the girl who plays vanessa on gossip girl is how i imagined leah especially the eyes but o well
ReplyDeleteOk, all of you guys that are saying that she is too old to play Leah, you need to read the books again (mostly eclipse). You forget that in the books the wolves reach full physical maturity within a few weeks before their first transformation. Which means that she is quite perfect for the roll. And anyways, have you seen what they can do with makeup nowadays?
ReplyDeleteBoston Latin grad. Brains & beauty
ReplyDeleteGet your Team Edward and Team Jacob at Audreyshops.com!!
ReplyDeletetinsel korey is prettier than her
ReplyDeleteand btw, i agree, none of the actors look like my mental images. specially not rob. he looks sleazy and scruffy. i thought edward was supposed to be elegant and polished. and i'm not saying rob's ugly. he's hot but not the delicate classic beauty i had in mind.
julia is amazing and why are people comparing actresses looks to one another? how rude. and leah, sam, and emily are older than the rest of pack members so get the idea of them being teenagers out of your brains. what, did you think they were teenagers too?
ReplyDeletesome people even thought seth should have been blonde, for real people?
i think shes sexy ^_^
ReplyDeleteoh yeah and ye lot need to remember shes in her twenties, shes older than bella cause she has all ready finished school, you idiots
ReplyDeleteShe was 19(20?) in the books guys, lol. She looks ugly in these pictures, but she looked prettier in the actual movie and she portrayed Leah pretty well:)
ReplyDeleteshe is almost 30 years old isnt she meant to play a 19 yr old?
ReplyDeleteI think she is the right for the part,no offense to those who don't like her..hope they won't replace her she's the lhea clearwater for me..
ReplyDeletei agree. She is a a great actress to play leah
ReplyDeleteShe is the perfect actress to play Leah Clearwater. She has the right attitude!
ReplyDeleteJulia- don't give the part to someone else!!
Good to see it here thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteYou look great lady,do not read ugly words they say, you are perfect for this movie,
ReplyDelete... Kiss from Serbia werewolf
