Cameron Bright (born January 26, 1993) is the American actor who plays Alec and he is eighteen years old at the moment. The actress who plays Jane, the American Dakota Fanning, is 17 at the moment (born February 23, 1994). Alec from the Volturi (not Alec Volturi), the character himself, was turned at about the age of 12 or 13 according to the Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide and he is said to be 5" in the books (along with his sister Jane). But, in an interview, Stephenie Meyer (the author of the saga) said that she pictured Alec to be 16 and Jane to be 15 (the same age as Bree Tanner but younger looking as Bree even said in the books that Jane looked younger than her); AND that they are not twins but yes, brother and sister (as you may have guessed from their ages) -- and that they only had been stated as twins because of their, not only physical resemblance, but also similar personality. In the books, both Alec and Jane are around 5" BUT in the movies/films Alec is 5'10" and Jane is 5'3" and they do not look as young. It is stated in Jane's page that in the movies/films she doesn't look as childish as described in the books.
