'Breaking Dawn' Reportedly Gets The Green Light
The fourth film in the 'Twilight' franchise should start shooting in 2010.

"Breaking Dawn" has reportedly gotten the green light by Summit Entertainment, as the fourth movie in the "Twilight" saga, according to TheWrap.com, although a rep for Summit Entertainment, the film's producer, told MTV News late Monday afternoon that the report is untrue.
TheWrap.com reports that a source close to the film's production said that "Breaking Dawn" will start shooting in the spring of 2010.
"Breaking Dawn" would follow production of the third "Twilight" film, "Eclipse," which Drew Barrymore recently revealed she won't be directing. Chris Weitz replaced Catherine Hardwicke on "New Moon," and it is widely believed that Juan Antonio Bayona will tackle "Eclipse," although a director has yet to be confirmed by Summit.
The anonymous Summit executive who spoke to The Wrap said that there was no production schedule for "Breaking Dawn" yet and no current plans to shoot in Vancouver, but the stars of the film will reportedly get some time off after finishing "New Moon" before they begin work on "Eclipse."
"Twilight" was released last November and was an instant smash at the box office. Because of the first film's success, "New Moon" was green-lit and will be released on November 20, 2009, and "Eclipse" should be in theaters in June 2010. "Breaking Dawn" would hit the release docket later that year.
Just last week, the rest of the "New Moon" cast was revealed, including "Twilight" newcomers Dakota Fanning and Michael Sheen as members of the "legendary Volturi, a venerable coven of vampires who weigh and impose the laws of the vampire world."
YAY! I'm one of the few who would say this, but I loved the fourth book! I worry though, with every movie having a different director... is someone going to care enough about the project to do a good job? Or are they going to do "just good enough" to make money? One movie coming out each year for the next three years doesn't bode well for quality. And since the wolves are getting more involved (and with freakish baby Renesme in the last one), quality will be important in keeping the cheese factor down.
Though some would say the cheese factor is the best part of the Twilight Saga. That's not what I'm looking for. I think if you're going to do it, don't make it a spoof. Do it well.
