MTV: ‘The Twilight Saga’ Continued Its Vampiric Reign

From MTV’s Hollywood Crush:

Last year we listed off the movies, TV shows and other pop-cult gems we were most excited for in 2010, and though the Wizarding World of Harry Potter got the top spot (come on, it’s a theme park), “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” was the movie we were most looking forward to. It’s been a big year for “The Twilight Saga,” and “Eclipse” definitely did not disappoint. As another year of “Twilight”‘s domination is about to begin, we figured now would be a good time to look back at the series’ biggest moments in 2010.

“New Moon” had hit theaters only several months before, but “The Twilight Saga” started 2010 off with a bang when there was reportedly some drama between Stephenie Meyer and Summit Entertainment over “Breaking Dawn,” though the “Twilight” author quickly dispelled that rumor. That was followed closely with producer Wyck Godfrey’s announcement that “Breaking Dawn” was gearing up to film the coming fall. We were all holding on to every will-they-won’t-they rumor (3D? CGI Renesmee? One or two films?), and it took the majority of the year for any of those questions to be answered.

While we waited for more “Breaking Dawn” news, Summit announced the “New Moon” release date and two “Twilight” stars went from dating to engaged. In February we learned that we’d get a trailer for “Eclipse” before RPattz’s other film “Remember Me,” and found out why Robert is bothered.

A month later we got a teaser for that trailer, and then had to wait six days until we got the full-length version. We were all pretty thrilled when we found out the trailer showed Bella’s engagement ring, but that was nothing compared to the excitement we felt when Stephenie Meyer announced she was releasing a novella about Bree Tanner.

While all that was unfolding, there were still a lot of questions being asked about “Breaking Dawn.” Three directors had been short-listed for the job, and the stars were pretty excited about them. On April 28 director Bill Condon was chosen for the honor. Bill convinced fans he was the man for the job by writing them a letter, and an official release date announcement came soon after. Hello, November 18, 2011!

But we weren’t the only ones with “Twilight” fever; Oprah caught the bug too! First she premiered an epic new “Eclipse” trailer and then showed some lucky fans an early cut of “Eclipse”. Audience members gave us the inside scoop on her special “Eclipse”-themed episode, too.

There was more “Breaking Dawn” drama when rumors hit the web that Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz might not be returning for the final “Twilight Saga” film, but those were quickly resolved. And, with a month left until “Eclipse” hit theaters, the soundtrack listing was finally revealed. As if we couldn’t get any more excited for the film, it was announced that Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner were going to be presenting a new clip from the film at the MTV Movie Awards, and we totally loved it when they did. It helped that “New Moon” swept the awards show as well.

By the time June finally rolled around, we had two things to look forward to: “The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner” and “Eclipse.” We camped out all night for both, and both surpassed our expectations.

With “Eclipse” out, all the focus could now shift to the final film in the “Twilight” series. Or rather, two films. “Breaking Dawn” was announced as a two-parter and the second half would be released on November 16, 2012. Wyck Godfrey also leaked that Robsten are totally an item, and we found out “Twilight” could be the most successful film franchise ever, on top of the fact that vamps have made $7 billion since 2008.

Screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg hinted that there might not be a birthing scene, but she quickly retracted that statement and instead started talking about all of “Breaking Dawn”‘s new vampires. There are a lot of them, and they’re pretty much all cast by now. Unfortunately, James Franco wasn’t one of them. But the most important casting announcement was that 9-year-old Mackenzie Foy would playBella and Edward’s daughter, Renesmee.

“Breaking Dawn” filming is now underway, and we’ve seen awesome paparazzi pictures of Bella and Edward’s honeymoon and the Volturi hanging out. Of course, we also found out why Bella is covered in feathers. The “Eclipse” DVD release got us looking forward to a whole new year of “Breaking Dawn” news as we count down the next 11 months until the first film hits theaters. After all, there’s soundtracks to be announced, awards shows to sweep and relationships to cross our fingers for in the meantime, and probably lots of “Twilight”-related fodder we can’t even begin to anticipate.

Talk of Fifth ‘Twilight’ Film Is Premature

New “Eclipse” cast member BooBoo Stewart sent the Twi-hards into a frenzy on Friday when he told Access Hollywood there would be two more movies in the “Twilight Saga” after the third chapter, “Eclipse.”

However, a rep for Summit Entertainment – the studio behind the hit vampire film franchise – has now told Access that BooBoo (who will join the big screen saga as wolfpack member Seth Clearwater in the next installment) was premature in his statements.

“We appreciate our young actor’s enthusiasm for the franchise and his role, but his comments about the number of films were unfortunately uninformed and not accurate,” the Summit rep said in a statement to Access.

I’m sure that most of you know by now, but for anyone who has only just discovered Twilight you may not have heard that Stephenie Meyer, our favorite author has started writing Midnight Sun, which is Twilight but from Edwards perspective.

Unfortunately a partial rough draft was leaked without her permission, So Stephenie has gone ahead and published it on her website.

For the time being Midnight Sun is on hold, but Stephenie has said that she will get back to it. You can read what she has to say about it on her website. And here is the link to her draft copy of Midnight Sun!

I really enjoyed reading Midnight Sun, it was great to get into Edward’s head and it has made reading Twilight for the 2nd time even more enjoyable know what Edward was thinking!

The Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer

Twilight is the first novel in a series of four vampire based fantasy slash romance novels by author Stephenie Meyer. The series of novels follow the adventures of Bella Swan, a teenage girl who moves to a small rainy town called Forks in Washington, once there her life is turned upside down when she falls in love with Edward Cullen, who happens to be a vampire.

The series consists of four novels:

Twilight -

Bella Swan moves from Phoenix, Arizona, to Forks, Washington, to allow her mother, Renée, to travel with her new husband, Phil, a minor league baseball player. After moving to Forks, Bella finds herself involuntarily drawn to a mysterious, handsome boy, Edward Cullen, who turns out to be a vampire who drinks animal blood as opposed to human blood. They fall passionately in love, and must fight off a vampire from another coven who is drawn to drink Bella’s blood. Bella escapes to Phoenix, Arizona, where she is tricked into confronting James, the sadistic vampire who wishes to kill her. She is mortally wounded, but Edward rescues her, and they return to Forks.

New Moon -

Edward and his family leave Forks because of his belief that he is constantly endangering Bella’s life. Bella falls into a deep depression, until she develops a strong friendship with werewolf Jacob Black. Jacob and the other wolves in his tribe must protect her from Victoria, an evil vampire who intends to avenge the death of James, her mate, by killing Bella. A misunderstanding occurs, and Edward is led to believe that Bella is dead. Edward decides to commit suicide in Volterra, Italy, but he is stopped by Bella and Alice, Edward’s sister. They meet with the Volturi, a powerful coven of vampires, and are released on the condition that Bella be turned into a vampire in the near future. Bella and Edward are reunited, and the Cullens return to Forks.

Eclipse -

The vampire Victoria (James’s mate from Twilight) has created an army of “newborn” vampires to battle the Cullen family and kill Bella. Meanwhile, Bella is forced to choose between her relationship with Edward and her friendship with Jacob. Edward’s family of vampires and Jacob’s pack of werewolves join forces to successfully destroy Victoria and her army of vampires. In the end, Bella chooses Edward’s love over Jacob’s and agrees to marry him.

Breaking Dawn -
Bella and Edward get married, but their honeymoon is cut short by Bella’s realization that she has become pregnant. Bella’s pregnancy progresses extremely quickly and makes her very weak. She nearly dies while giving birth to her and Edward’s half-vampire-half-human daughter, Renesmee, but Edward injects Bella with his venom to save her life by turning her into a vampire. A vampire from another coven sees Renesmee and mistakes her for an “immortal child”, the existence of which violates vampire rules, and informs the Volturi. The Cullens gather vampire witnesses who can verify that the child is not one of the immortal children. The Cullens and their witnesses convince the Volturi that Renesmee is not a danger to vampires or their secret, and they are left in peace.

The series is mainly told from Bella’s perspective.

The Twilight series is popular among teens and young adults, but is also enjoyed by many older adults and has sold millions of copies worldwide.
