Camilla Belle is West Side Story’s Maria
Camilla Belle takes on the role of Maria and helps re-create scenes from the beloved 1961 film version of West Side Story.
Vanity Fair really hit it on the nose with the casting. The 22-year-old Brazilian beauty received help from Tony (Ben Barnes, also known as Prince Caspian), Anita (Jennifer Lopez), Bernardo (Rodrigo Santoro) and fellow Sharks played by Brandon T. Jackson (Tropic Thunder) and Jay Hernandez (Grindhouse, Ladder 49). The Jets are played out by Chris Evans (Riff) and Cam Gigandet (The O.C., Twilight), Drake Bell (Nickelodeon’s Drake & Josh), and Robert Pattinson (Twilight).

Gorgeous pictures!!! I dont like Camilla Belle but she looks awesome as Maria like Ben as Tonny, Rodrigo Santoro as Bernardo ,etc,etc . All are perfect !!
Come on Twihatters , Be honest .Rob dont fit as Tonny. He looks like he is on drugs and he is perfect like a vampire but not as Tonny.
This is West side story not Twilight ..By Sake god
.
not the mimi above.
i don’t care who makes a tony. All i care is that cam gigandet is there. i love ben, hate rob. CAM’s my #1. and mimi above you are right rob looks like he is on drugs. and cam can do anything and still be sexy!!!!!
Awesome pictures!! Handsome guys: Rodrigo Santoro, Chris Evans , Ben Barnes, Robert Pattinson, Cam Gigandent !!!
Don’t hate me , Twilight fans but I think Barnes was a better choice as Tony than Rpatzz. He is not wayyyy famous like Pattinson but he always is fit and surprise me with his diferents looks. I could not even recognizer him. Very versatile guy. He isn’t a huge star but he is a rising actor.
If Rob were Tony , Its would suck or would be a Weird Twilight Story. XD Sorry, Rob is typecast as vampire Edward Cullen to me.
Cam is hot but simply isnt Tony, but he is great like one of JETS.
Yay! Ben as Tony, totally agree!
I mean, don’t get me wrong. I loved Rob in Twilight, but I’ve seen Ben in other roles and he knows how to play different characters. He’s very talented.
Also, Rob is too related with the Twilight phenomenon, means the character loses credibility.
Ben, nowadays, Ben is the best option.
i don’t care that cam isn’t tony, come as long as cam is there i’m happy. rob is going to be stuck in twilight forever. cam while he was in twilight his moving on with lead roles in dramas, sci-fi, action, and is playing good guys. while he may always be remember as volchok from the oc and ben barnes as prince caspian, but they do chance it up with their movie. i mean even with cam as being the bad guy he does make each of the different. CAM GIGANDET and ben have great thing ahead in their career. CAM #1, ben is in there.
JLO is awful as Anita. I d pick another girl . Maybe Vanesa Hudgen or someone else. She dont like me but atleast she is young latin girl and dance very well. All rest cast is perfect!!
Well.. except Drake Bell , I d choose Zac efron in his place .yay.
They are unrecognizable. Great portrayal job . Congratulations Vanity Fair !!
Camila looks amazing!!
Complain all you wants, twifanatics. Your dear Rob isnt on the front , he is way in the back and nobody can change this. The same thing with the people who said Camilla is an awful actress. Grow up!!!
You really make me sick.
I dont like me some actors and actress either but I admit these West Side Story pictures are fabulous , even fat JLo as Anita.
sandra, i so agree with you grow up people. i mean i’m all over cam but i don’t care that he’s not in the front i’m just happy he’s there.
Robert Pattinson is in the back: Good!! I’m so sick of him already, and I agree with Mimi he’s stuck in Twilight. Ben looks good as Tony. And for Alison (#7) how can someone look like a plank of wood?!?! It’s a PHOTO!!! Jesus!! Get over yourself already. Robert sucks!!!
Camilla looks old, no offence, and too annoying and not that good of an actress… nice to see drake bell from drake and josh thought..
that ben guy is a way better actor than camilla…
I think Ben looked really hot in his photos x3 . I glad for you, babe…but why Camilla Belle ??
Ok, she is pretty, this Camilla is really starting to annoying me though.. Am I dreaming or is she trying on every hot guy out there ?? Even if it’s just a photoshoot . As if there werent enough with Rob and Joe.
you dumbasses it’s not like it’s a movie, chill the hell out. it’s just a photoshoot.
sure she’s beautiful, with a perfect nose job, why not.
Wooden much, Camilla? She can’t even act in still photos. Still hot though.
Even Mischa Barton - the reigning Queen of the Kingdom of the Hopelessly Talentless - is decent at giving good face and making it seem like she can act when not speaking . . . or moving. Camilla can’t even manage that.
I think Camilla really has that youthful and innocent look of Maria, she would be a great pick if they actually did do a new movie…
For those of you wondering, tthe pearl basket bracelet that Camilla Belle wears throughout the spread, as well as the bangles that Jennifer Lopez wears, are from Doyle & Doyle, an antique, estate and fine jewelry store in the Lower East Side.

I agree Camila is beautiful and fit.
Rodrigo Santoro is perfect as Bernardo. He is brazilian too.
Me alegra que el este en esta sesion de fotos rememorando mi pelicula favorita Amor sin barreras. Todos estan perfectos en su respectivos papeles. Me hicieron recordar la pelicula.Congratulation!!
She is so pretty!
she’s nothing, she can go back to spend her father’s money and have better nose surgery
@Erica: Robert is not a big star! His only big movie was Twilight! Ben also has made a big name! Obviously Rob is sooo miserable. What is that a pose?? I think the casting is PERFECT!!!!!!!
BEN BARNES YOU ARE THE BEST FU*CK THE REST!!!!!!!!!!!
