Larry Carroll had an interview with Stephenie Meyer the author of the twilight saga, and this time she talked about The Soul and The Seeker, books that will follow The Host; she also talked about the cast that came she thinks could play the part for Jeb, Ian, Kyle and Jared ; so this is what she said:
Meyer: I hope. If I were to continue on with "The Host," which is a possibility, there are characters and stories that could continue. ... If I went ahead with that, it would be two more. ... Next would be "The Soul," and then "The Seeker."
MTV: You've said that when you write, you cast actors in the roles in your head. Would you like to see a "Host" movie? Who are your dream stars?
Meyer: I would. ... With "Twilight," I felt the actors needed to be up-and-coming artists that haven't been recognized yet. ... With "The Host," I think the actors could be really big names. That would be cool. I'd love to see Robert Redford put on a beard and be Jeb; he would be amazing. ... Matt Damon has some very Jared-esque qualities, and then [I'd love to see] Casey Affleck as Ian and Ben Affleck as Kyle. Imagine the interplay.

Yeaaaaa I'd be so great for all of us to continue to read this wonderful story!!
Though her cast's choose would be just the opposite of the charachters I imagined.
I love S.M's books and will be delighted to get on with Wanda's stories :D
its really funny how S.M's imaginations are completely opposite of mine..
i acutally imagined brandon routh and james marsden as kyle and ian
I think that Ian Somerhalder looks totally like Ian O'Shea. I mean, pale skin, dark hair, striking blue eyes?
I imagined them exatly like the cast stephenie chose :o
Can't wait for Stephenie to publish the soul.This book has been long awaited.I want her to keep writing books. She is one of my favorite authors.I think she should focus more on book writing then so much on the movies.Don't get me wrong I loved the movies but the sequials are long over due.
