BILL CONDON TO DIRECT SUMMIT ENTERTAINMENT’S THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN

 

Los Angeles, CA April 28, 2010 – Summit Entertainment has confirmed that Academy Award® winner Bill Condon will direct THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN, based on the fourth novel in author Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series. THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN, is currently being written by Melissa Rosenberg, and will star Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. Wyck Godfrey, Karen Rosenfelt, and Stephenie Meyer will produce the project.

“Bringing Stephenie Meyer’s BREAKING DAWN to the screen requires a graceful and intelligent hand and we believe Bill Condon is exactly the right steward, having shown equal and abundant talents of immense creativity and subtle sensitivity,” said Erik Feig, President of Production and Acquisitions, for Summit Entertainment.

Added author Stephenie Meyer, “I’m so thrilled that Bill wants to work with us. I think he’s going to be a great fit, and I’m excited to see what he does with the material.”

“I’m very excited to get the chance to bring the climax of this saga to life on-screen. As fans of the series know, this is a one-of-a-kind book—and we’re hoping to create an equally unique cinematic experience,” said Bill Condon.

THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic that has entranced millions.

Condon is well known for writing and directing DREAMGIRLS, KINSEY, and GODS AND MONSTERS, for which he won the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay in 1999. He was nominated for a second Oscar for his screenplay for the movie musical CHICAGO in 2003. Most recently the multi-hyphenate directed the pilot episode for the Showtime series “The Big C” and produced the 81^st Annual Academy Awards telecast, hosted by Hugh Jackman.

The third film in the franchise, THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE is due in theaters on June 30, 2010.

Condon is represented by WME and Anonymous Content.

Since Robert Pattinson’s movie Remember Me opens in movie theaters  tomorrow (Friday, March 12), I couldn’t resist posting this My Space Artist on Artist video interview he did with Pierce Brosnan who portrays his father in the film.  Robert Pattinson is known to Harry Potter fans for his portrayal of “Cedric Diggory” in Goblet of Fire and Order of the Phoenix.  Pierce Brosnan can be seen currently as “Chiron” in Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief which was directed by Chris Columbus who also directed the first two Harry Potter films.  Small world, isn’t it?

 The two actors discussed the scenes they did together.  Brosnan expressed how impressed he was with the film as a whole and what Pattinson did in it and for it as executive producer.  The interview was taped prior to the premiere which is why Pattinson stated he had not seen a final cut.  Brosnan had a private viewing with his family.

 There is a humorous bit where Brosnan asked Pattinson about the Twilight films.  Pattinson replies that the final story Breaking Dawn still needs to be filmed which will happen at the end of the year and may be cut in two parts; and then, he was done with it…finished.  Bronsan comments that he believed there had only been seven James Bond books written by Ian Fleming; but by the time he had the part of the MI6 spy, the films have been going on forever and ever, so Pattinson better watch out!  He may be playing Edward Cullen for a long time.  But both actors agree that you can’t play or be 17 forever.  Who would want to?  As Brosnan says, you have to move on.

 Funny, that what’s I have to keep telling myself in the mirror.  Lol.
