Scooped on Wednesday, April 28, 2010
Director Bill Condon has been selected as the director of Breaking Dawn, the fourth Twilight movie. Condon won the Oscar for writing the screenplay for 1999's Gods and Monsters. In 2003 he was also nominated for the screenplay for Chicago.
"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 the president of production and acquisitions for Summit Entertainment.
"I'm very excited to get the chance to bring the climax of this saga to life on-screen," said Bill Condon. "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."
Twilight 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."
Summit didn't address any of the rumors that Breaking Dawn could be filmed as two films. At the moment it's only being addressed as a single movie.
