Australia’s Xavier Samuel has been given a role in Eclipse, the third instalment of the Twilight franchise, reports Perez Hilton. Xavier, 25, will play Riley, a vampire who assists Victoria in her attempts to murder Bella.

“I was up against some truly great actors who I’m privileged to be considered among,” he said. “It’s a fantastic opportunity.”

Channing Tatum and Harry Potter‘s Tom Felton were reportedly also considered for the role.

Filming for Eclipse is planned to begin August 17 and wrap October 31. It is tentatively scheduled for release June 30, 2010, following the second film, New Moon, which hits theatres November 20.
