Final Twilight Film Split in Two!
Posted on June 12th, 2010 at 2:31 pm by Helen Whitaker
A fortnight before The Twilight Saga: Eclipse will hit theaters, distributor Summit Entertainment has officially announced that the final Twilight story, Breaking Dawn, will in fact be divided into two separate films.
This brings the total installment count to five Twilight films in all. The first half of the two-parter is scheduled to be released in November, while the release date of the final, final film remains unannounced. Both halves of Breaking Dawn will be filmed back-to-back.
This announcement does not come as a shock considering the extensive length (900 pages!) of the book by Stephanie Meyer on which the films are based; however, Summit had to finalize contract negotiations with Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and the rest of the cast before the decision could be made public.
It is no secret to fans of the Twilight series that Breaking Dawn follows Edward and Bella down the wedding aisle as they continue to struggle with their vampire-human differences.
Hmmm… one can’t help but wonder if life will imitate art… eh RPatz?
