TWILIGHT SAGA NEWS: MAY 1ST

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner in Canada for Reshoots for Eclipse

entertainment.gather.com: The Rumor of Eclipse release date being delayed is put to rest. They may be re-shooting, but it will still release in June. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner are in Vancouver, Canada for Eclipse re-shoots this week. Pattinson arrived Wednesday afternoon (April 28) surrounded by heavy security : two bodyguards, a cast driver, and a police officer. With the movie releasing in two months, Summit Entertainment apparently thinks some work needs to be done on the film.

The Twilight Saga Eclipse is going to be a true vampire movie

likeitido.com: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are the stars of the ‘Twilight’ movies and while the main dilemma between the two consists of the fact that Edward Cullen is a vampire, neither ‘Twilight’ or ‘New Moon’ really feel like vampire movies in the traditional sense.

However, that is set to change in ‘Eclipse,’ where fans should expect to see a lot more about the vampires that are invading Bella Swans world. The Cullen family member actors spoke to the LA TIMES and said:

“This time around, you get to see their true vampire-ness,” said Peter Facinelli, who plays Carlisle Cullen.

The Twilight Saga: A note to fans from Bill Condon

www.facebook.com:

Greetings Twihards, Twifans, Twilight Moms, Team Edward, Team Jacob and Team Switzerland,

I just want to say hello to all of you and let you know that I’m stoked to be getting underway on the adventure of making BREAKING DAWN. As you’ve probably heard, I’ve been given a very warm welcome by Stephenie and Team Summit – who are super-focused, as you know, on getting these movies right.

I’m pretty busy bringing myself up to speed on what you already know by heart: I’ve read BREAKING DAWN twice, rewatched Catherine’s and Chris’s movies 2-3 times each, have all four CDs playing in my car, and have Catherine’s notebook, Mark Cotta Vaz’s companion books, and even Volume 1 of the graphic novel here on my desk – a corner of my office is starting to look like Hot Topic. I realize that this barely qualifies me for “newborn” status in the universe you’ve been living inside for a few years now, but a guy’s gotta start somewhere.

I really liked how the new Breaking Dawn director Bill Condon approached the Twilighters. He seems ready to get on this crazy ride and open to the fans, guess that’s a good way to start. He is asking the fans for questions and taking comments, by far all I’ve seen where good ones 🙂 and there will definitely will be no musical numbers. As a twilighter all I want right now is that they start shooting, from that point on then I’ll take my list out and ask for my favorite moments and quotes. What do you think of this note? What do you want to see in Breaking Dawn?

What do you think of the cast being in Canada re-shooting scenes?

Will Eclipse be more of a vampire movie this time around? Give us your opinions, join us in the discussion!
