Wendell Pierce will portray a human in 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn'

Last October, a list of castmembers added to portray supporting role characters in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn was announced, and still most of those actors' characters for the film(s) are unknown.

(Note: Ty Olsson has since been revealed as Bella's stepfather, "Phil Dwyer," for the films; that character was portrayed briefly by Matt Bushell in 2008's Twilight).

Wendell Pierce of the hit HBO series Treme was one of them.
Early speculation on Pierce's involvement in Breaking Dawn (done by MTV's Hollywood Crush) pegged him as the character "Max," the assistant to "J. Jenks" who greets the newly-vamped Bella on the street, and that thought may not be far from the mark.

Wendell Pierce has been interviewed by Rolling Stone about the second season of Treme, and in that interview, he explained a bit about his character in Breaking Dawn, "I am not a werewolf, and I am not a vampire. I am actually one of the few human beings in the movie."
