May 2, 2010 - Breaking Dawn / Bill Condon releases statement to fans

Scooped on Sunday, May 2, 2010

Via Summit Entertainment, newly minted Breaking Dawn director Bill Condon has released a statement to fans of the Twilight movie and book series:

"Greetings Twihards, Twifans, Twilight Moms, Team Edward, Team Jacob and Team Switzerland,

"I just want to say hello to all of you and let you know that I'm stoked to be getting underway on the adventure of making Breaking Dawn. As you've probably heard, I've been given a very warm welcome by Stephenie and Team Summit - who are super-focused, as you know, on getting these movies right.

"I'm pretty busy bringing myself up to speed on what you already know by heart: I've read Breaking Dawn twice, rewatched Catherine's and Chris's movies 2-3 times each, have all four CDs playing in my car, and have Catherine's notebook, Mark Cotta Vaz's companion books, and even Volume 1 of the graphic novel here on my desk - a corner of my office is starting to look like Hot Topic. I realize that this barely qualifies me for 'newborn' status in the universe you've been living inside for a few years now, but a guy's gotta start somewhere.

"Like many of you, I've always been slightly obsessed with vampires, dating back to the prime-time series Dark Shadows, which I followed avidly as a kid. But that alone hadn't been enough to get me interested in making a vampire movie, even though my early screenwriting and directing efforts grew out of a great love for horror movies and thrillers. Since making Gods and Monsters thirteen years ago, however, I've been yearning for a return to a story with Gothic overtones.

"The wonderful world that Stephenie has created has obviously struck a chord with you, and I don't think it's difficult to see why. For me, her characters are simultaneously timeless, yet very modern. Rooted in a beautiful, real landscape with a great sense of place, Bella, Edward, Jacob, and the rest of the Forks/La Push menagerie, experience emotions that are primal, and universal: desire, despair, jealousy - and it all comes to fruition in Breaking Dawn. This is a final chapter in the best sense; not just wide in scope and scale, but emotionally charged and intense throughout.

"I'm a huge admirer of the already-iconic Kristen, Robert, and Taylor, and wanted to be the one to work with them as they face the challenges of bringing your beloved characters to the end of their journeys. Really, what could be more fun than that?"
