Breaking Dawn is a very complex book, a lot of very critical elements happen just in the first few chapters. In fact the book has so much info that not only did Stephenie Meyer break it into two parts, she also switched narration between Bella and Jacob. All these leads us to understand when screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg talks about how complicated it is to write!
The Emmy’s were this weekend which in the Twilight world means more opportunities to get more Twilight News! Hollywood Life had the chance to talk to Melissa and see how it was going. They tried to get us as many details as possible. Check out the video!
I can’t wait to see how it all turns out!

Benjamin Cast for Breaking Dawn!

We are also so excited about Breaking Dawn and any info we can get on it is a good thing! Whether it is casting or locations, we want all the details we can get!
When New Moon was cast, there was lots of new characters to cast and we anxiously awaited the announcement. With Breaking Dawn, we are introduced to a whole swarm of new characters with the introduction of the new vampire clans! This will mean tons of new actors to welcome into the Twilight Family! The first of these is Rami Malek, who has been cast as Benjamin, a member of the Egyptian coven of Vampires. Most people remember Benjamin because he is a vampire with a special talent, he can manipulate the elements. He is one of Edwards best friends and described as being very good looking!
If you are thinking you know Rami from some where, you are probably right! As soon as I saw his picture I knew I recognized him! A quick Google search shows that Rami has been in many famous shows, in fact he just one an Emmy for his role as Merriell Shelton in the mini-series, The Pacific. He also played Ahkmenrah in Night at the Museum, which is what recognized him from!
I think he will make a good Benjamin! I always pictured him with boyish charm! But what do you guys think? Is the casting good? Who would you choose to play the role? Share your opinions with us!
Summit Clears up Twilight Rumors
August 24, 2010 by Jessica

With a subject as popular as Twilight is to talk about, rumors and confusion are sure to run rapid. We have all heard the rumors and gossip and wished we knew what was true and what was completely made up. Well, Summit has heard our pleas and they have cleared up some of the rumors and provided us with the REAL information! Check it out:
- There is only one casting director working on THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN films right now – Deborah Zane. As of right now no local auditions are being held. If Deborah’s name is not attached to it in some form or another, it is not legitimate. She is also not putting out nationwide casting notices. Once again – as was the case with NEW MOON and ECLIPSE – any ads you see are completely false. She has set up an e-mail address specifically for casting inquiries (BreakingDawnCast@gmail.com). Don’t get taken advantage of by casting scams!
- The rumor about Renesmee’s name being changed in BREAKING DAWN is FALSE.
- Despite appearing on Xavier’s IMDb page, Riley will NOT appear in the Breaking Dawn movie.
- Any current information about the US release date of the Eclipse DVD has not been confirmed. Summit has not announced it yet.
So much good news! I am glad to hear it! What about you guys? Have more questions that didn’t get answered? Leave them in the comment box!!
Nikki Reed Talks Rosalie in Breaking Dawn
August 22, 2010 by Jessica
Filed under breaking dawn
It is no real surprise that the the feelings between Bella and Rosalie are not exactly friendly, but that completely changes in Breaking Dawn! *Spoiler Alert* When Bella finds out she is pregnant, Rosalie becomes her guardian, the one person who really supports Bella’s decision to have Reneesme. Nikki Reed has been playing Rosalie Hale in all of the movies, and so far she has done a great job and showing how much rosalie dislikes Bella. Not she needs to do a 180 in her character, which means that Nikki Reed needs to have an understanding of Rosalie’s progression throughout the book. Twilighters are gonna expect Niki to really understand Rosalies passion and they won’t settle for any thing less. But, of course, we have nothing to worry about! from the sounds of her interview with MTV, Nikki Reed knows what the fans want!
“I think that Rosalie just always wanted to be a mom, and that’s how I look at it . . . It has nothing to do with being pro-life or anything. I think it’s about her want, her need to be a mother, and this is the only opportunity she’s ever going to have, so she’s willing to let Bella die so she can have that and fulfill that, and that’s how I look at it. It’s her own personal desires,” she explained.
For anyone who has read the book, they know this sums it up exactly! In fact Jacob even asks if Rosalie was willing to sacrifice Bella for the baby, and although she never comes right out and says it, Rosalie makes her opinion very clear! The whole premise of Rosalie’s character is that she is jealous of the fact that Bella is a human, and she is mad because she doesn’t think Bella realizes all that she is giving up. So as much as Reneesme is Bella’s daughter, Rosalie is like her second mom and it is her chance to experience what it would have been like.

Why Breaking Dawn Part 2 is Coming out Fall 2012
August 20, 2010 by Jessica
Filed under breaking dawn
Although we don’t have may updates for Breaking Dawn Yet, what we do have has already started to cause a stir. First Summit announced that the movie was going to be broken into 2 parts, and Twilight fans are still not sure how they feel about the consensus is that we are glad because it stretches the franchise out a bit farther. When it was announced that part 1 would be released November 2011, we were all a bit disappointed to have to wait so long! Then everyone assumed that just like with New Moon and Eclipse, part 2 would come out the next summer. So, needless to say there was quite an upset among the Twilighters when they got news that part 2 won’t be released until November 2012, over a year after part 1! This didn’t make a lot of sense and Twilighters were trying to figure out the big gap! But it actually makes sense.
Most movie sequels flop, or at the very least, make less then their originals, this was not true with Twilight, with each movie new records are beat! however, with the release of Eclipse in june this year, it had to compete with all of the new hot summer movies and did not get as much playing time as the other to. In the summer of 2012, we are expecting the release of quite a few hot sequels, including Star Trek 2, Men in Black 3, Madagascar 3, and many more. Even though many of these movies would not really be a huge competition for Breaking Dawn, theaters would have to choose between it and other hot selling movies. i mean can you imagine owning a theater and having to choose between Breaking Dawn part 2 and Start Trek2? It would be nearly impossible. Movies have a minimum run time so theaters with only one screen, such as here in St. helens, have to guess which movie is going to sell more tickets, not just opening day, but for weeks to come. With Breaking Dawn Part 2 releasing in November, it is a slower time for movies and theaters can rune the movies longer, even extending them if necessary.
So as much as it is a pain to wait, in the long run, having it that way works out better for the theaters, and for us. Hopefully the wait won’t be too agonizing!!
What do you think of this reasoning? Do you agree or is it just a lame excuse? Share your opinions with us!

Release Date for Breaking Dawn Part 2!
August 3, 2010 by Jessica
Filed under breaking dawn
We anxiously await the release of Breaking Dawn and so far Summit has been few and between with any updates on the film, so we are always excited whenever any news comes our way! Summit just released this message to fans through their facebook page-
EXCLUSIVE! You fans are the first to hear that THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN - PART 2 will open in theatres on November 16, 2012! Directed by Bill Condon, the astonishing conclusion to the series illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic that has entranced millions.
So, it is great to have a release date, however, if you were paying attnetion, that is almost exactly 1 Year after the release of part one! Not only is this gonna make it hard to wait, but there are some problems that could be introduced because of this. Will Robert Pattinson be able to pull of 17 for that long? What is this gonna mean for Reneesme? If I had to guess, this probably means that either Reneesme will be a CGI baby, or they will not bother to cast her until the second part! So Twilight fans, we might be waiting more then 2 years before we get to meet the newest little Cullen.
What do you think? Is this terribly disappointing or a blessing in disguise! Fight for your side with us in the comment section below!

Breaking Dawn Part 1
July 21, 2010 by Jessica
Filed under breaking dawn
So there has been some debate about where the 2 parts of Breaking Dawn will be split. *WARNING- IF YOU HAVEN’T READ THE BOOKS THIS POST WILL DEFINITELY CONTAIN SPOILERS*
Bill Condon has been chosen as the new director for the Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn and him and the rest of the Summit team have decided that Breaking Dawn has enough content for 2 movies. I am super excited about this because that means that we get more Twilight for longer! However, fans are wondering where the break is going to be. If you have read the books you know that Stephanie Meyer actually breaks the book up in 2 different places. The first one is right after she finds out she is pregnant. This is where Jacob takes over and starts retelling the story from his point of view. So they could easily break the movie up here. The problem with that is that basically we would hear the whole first story all over again! plus, it would be kind of anti-climatic. There would be no real climax in the first half.
The second break is right after Reneesme is born. After she is born Bella gets turned, by Edward. Oh and Jacob imprints on Reneesme. But then the 1st half ends and in the next half we would get to see the first moments of Bella being a vampire. It would better because the climax would be the pregnancy and all the drama that comes with it. However, if they break it there, we will have to wait at least 6 months until we see Reneesme and Bella as a vamp, and that would be hard to wait!
So, I turn it over to you my fellow twi-hards, where do you think the break should be? And what parts are a MOST be in the movie part? Share your opinions with us!!

Breaking Dawn Officially in 2 Parts!
June 13, 2010 by Jessica
Filed under breaking dawn
With Eclipse being released in only 18 days we can’t help but wonder about the next branch of the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn. Recently they announced that Breaking Dawn will be filmed in 2 parts, which for me is really exciting! For me this means more news from our favorite stars, more premiere parties, and more opportunities for Twilight craziness! But I can’t help but wonder about other reactions to this news, are other Twilighters as happy about this as I am?
By reading the comments on other blogs, it seems as though their are some mixed reaction. On one hand, there are people who feel like I do, the more Twilight the better! However there are others that feel as though their is not enough content to make more then one movie. So what are the pros and cons to both? One pro of course is more Rob, Kristen, and Taylor time, but that is not the only reason this is a good idea. One of the biggest complaints about the first 2 movies what that there was not enough time and so some of our favorite content was lost. By splitting Breaking Dawn into two parts Bill Condon will have more time to be able to fit in all the details that make Breaking Dawn so good. I don’t want to spoil it for anyone who hasn’t read the books, but there is a lot of content for them to simply shove it all into one movie.
However, there are cons to splitting the movie as well. One of these cons is the waiting! We are already having to wait until November 11th to even see the first part of Breaking Dawn, imagine how long we will have to wait for the second part! It will harder waiting then the previous movies especially because it will be leaving of in a cliff hanger!
So what do you think? How do you feel about the movie being split? Join the debate and share your opinions!
