QUICK TAKES - May 20, 2009
“Twilight” star Robert Pattinson has made it official: “Breaking Dawn,” the fourth and final book in Stephenie Meyer’s vampire saga, will be adapted for the big screen.
Pattinson confirmed the news Tuesday during the Cannes Film Festival, revealing that he is signed to star in all four “Twilight” films. The actor is shooting the second, “New Moon,” with director Chris Weitz and said he was unsure as to when the fourth movie would begin production.
Summit Entertainment gave the go-ahead to the second and third films late last year after the first movie took in more than $190 million in domestic box office revenue.
