Twilight Sequel Gets the Green Light!

Filed under: Film Flickers > Robert Pattinson

twilight123__opt1.jpg

Twilight fanatics got a very special email from book author Stephanie Meyer and film star Robert Pattinson today, Saturday. They announced that the movie studio wants to move forward with a follow-up to the Twilight flick, which experts say will definitely be this weekend's #1 movie!

To all of our wonderful, loyal and fantastic fans -

Thank you from the entire cast & crew for your amazing support of Twilight. You've blown away all of our expectations, and we feel so honored to have made a film that means as much to you as it does to us.

Without your passion, interaction and support, this film would not be where it is today — the #1 movie in America!

From every city, every stop, every interview we have done, you've made this an unbelievable, nearly surreal experience…and so cool that we were all in this together.

We just heard from Summit that we'll be moving forward on New Moon. We look forward to sharing this next chapter with you!

Kristen & Rob

Are U excited?

    Re: poopstain – Ha. You said it better than I did above. Seriously.



  2. 202

    OMG BEST MOVIE EVER IT WAS SO GOOD IM SO EXITED FOR THE NEXT ONE



  3. 203

    heck yes im excited if the first was good then the 2nd has to be even better.



  4. 204

    hell yess!



  5. 205

    holy shit! YES!
    im so freaking excited nowww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Re: cocolarue – They actually died Nikki Reeds hair blonde… It wasnt a hair piece, which is why you saw roots in some scenes (like the kitchen scene) and Yeah Jaspers hair was a little crazy but he played the part so well. I loved him.

    Re: Amour7287 – Well my friend, first off I would LOVE to boycott Kristen for ruining this movie. Not only were her giant nostrils distracting, but she is just not a loving character.. She is way better for violet movies. I will admit, the bedroom scene was hot, but Rob can make any almost sex scene hot I am sure.
    NOW what I meant was, where was this article found? Because it was signed "Kristen and Rob" at the end, but it isn't like they have a Myspace or another page together. So someone either put both their names on this without them knowing it or something is up. Because I will admit I have watched a few too many interviews with Rob, but he admits that him and Kristen didn't really get along. He found her really intimidating and kept his distance when they weren't filming! Not to mention, that bedroom scene was not even practiced! And only took one take. Insane eh? But now I question where Perez found this post, because I highly doubt they wrote it together…



  7. 207

    Yay!! I'm so excited!!



  8. 208

    im definitely excited. except for the fact that STEPHENIE MEYER spells her name like that, and that email was from KRISTEN and ROBERT NOT stephenie.
    get it right, if you're gunna report it.



  9. 209

    I'm glad they've moved on with the second one…. its not THAT big of a deal that robert isnt in a whole lot of the movie, that's the point of the story line… bella becomes close with jacob… plus we get to know the cullen family better. I think each movie will be better than the previous one

    ps… they'll have a bigger budget too..which means better special effect



  10. 210

    YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
    i'm seeing twilight again today. :) )))

    oh my god, thankyou perez, this made my day. :) ))

    Re: Listen To Mayday Parade – This was an email that was sent to everyone on Twilights mailing list. So no, its not on a website.



  15. 215

    Yes, cant wait for New Moon!

    Rob = sexy! ;-)



  16. 216

  17. 217

    I thought Twilight was amazing! I can't wait for New Moon!



  18. 218

    YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  19. 219

    AH YES!!! I think it will be amazing! I loved New Moon! TEAM JACOB lol. I think it will be like a really good opposite of Twilight, but they really can't leave out the important parts like they did for Twilight. Can't wait for Eclipse though!



  20. 220

    Re: Snaprebelx – Oh ok, so then Kristen and Robs names were just put on it. Thanks for clearing that up.



  21. 221

    How do you get on the mailing list to get emails like this?



  22. 222

    Let's hope this movie has a new director and screenwriter…



  23. 223

    hell ya i hope the second movie is better than the first one though !!



  24. 224

    great they get another chance to kill a great book
    if they ruin it again someone is going to get shot :)



  25. 225

    This is so the start of something new for us ! im supa exctied for NM only because Rob said it's his favroite book and I get to to see the cast again loved the movie saw it twice because i have no life lol



  26. 226

    yess. I really wanted them to make a sequel. the books are realllllly good. I'm just hoping they make the movie longer, and that they dont use the first 6 chapters in the first 5 mins in the movie like twilight.



  27. 227

    Not that I'm surprised, but this is fabulous!!!!



  28. 228

    Hell YES!!!!!

    230

    FUCKING STOKED!!!!! IVE ALREADY SEEN TWILIGHT TWICE!!



  31. 231

    Just saw Twilight for a second time this weekend and im sure it wont be the last time…soooooooo pumped for New Moon!!!!!!!!!! They need to start it now!!!!!!



  32. 232

    yesssss .
    thats greeeaatt ,
    i'm soosooso excited!!



  33. 233

    I love all of these comments like "take that twilight haterzzzzzz!!! lol!!"
    You guys went to see a movie, you didn't pass a major law, you didn't save the rain forest, you supported a movie.
    I'm not a twilight hater, I liked the books, as mediocre as they were, and the movie was decent, but believe me its not the huge accomplishment you think it is. I really don't think there was a group of people trying to stop anyone from seeing the movie. seriously get a fucking life.
    and did you REALLY think they were going to take a four book series and only make one movie? please.



  34. 234

    ooommg.new moon is my fav book other than twilight.im so stoked.such good news.sucha great twilight weekendd



  35. 235

    YAY YAY !! i love rob sooooo much (:



  36. 236

    eeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!
    they should fire both leads before they make another one!



  37. 237

    OMFG!!!!!!!!!!! ROB I LOVE U



  38. 238

    the movie was probably the worst thing ive ever seen
    not only was it sad depiction of the book,
    it was also a terrible movie.

    i laughed at all the "dramatic" parts.



  39. 239

    YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  40. 240

    fuck yeah!!!dude, im so excited.



  41. 241

    TWILIGHT OWNS [:



  42. 242

    HELL YES, NEW MOON!
    yes, im overly obsessed. but ya know, i dont really care.



  43. 243

    Re: Jilliannnn – i know what you mean, like. they made the whole first part into like one day. but i knew they were gonna shorten it alot.



  44. 244

    ammmazzzinnggg!!! =)



  45. 245

    Yesssssssssssssss!!! LOVE THE MOVIE:D



  46. 246

    PEREZZZZZZ :) I LOVE YOU



  47. 247

    HELLS FUCKING YES!!!
    new moon will be amazing.
    except not as much edward =[



  48. 248

    yes more crazy never in real life love every girl dreams about! WOOOO! MORE!!!



  49. 249

    so fucking pumped.. i like screamed when i got the email from summit :) hahaha



  50. 250

    hope they do a better (MUCH better) job at keeping true to the book than they bothered with the first one. As they seem to state their awareness of how special the series is to its readers.. you'd think they would have tried a little harder to follow it better and not dumb it/water it down for people who couldn't bother to read.

  51. ISSA says – reply to this


    251

    NOT TOO IMPRESSED W/ THE FILM OVERALL…DUE TO THE TIGHT BUDGET!!!

    I SURE HOPE THEY (SUMMIT) INVEST MORE MONEY AND TIME INTO NEW MOON!!!



  52. 252

    Re: Listen To Mayday Parade
    Yeah I'm not surprised. She is really intimidating and just MEAN!! He seems so cool and sweet in real life whereas she is just a total bitch. I'm not surprised at all that they didn't get along. Yeah her nostrils WERE annoying! lol! and did you notice that she wouldn't stop blinking???? Doing the bedroom scene with him in ONE take???!?! I mean I am sure it would be possible. He would be SO easy to do that with. Except I would keep messing up on purpose so we would have to do it again… and again… and again. lol!



  53. 253

    holy shit!!!!yes im excited.ahhhhhhhhh omg.i cant wait noww.even though its gonna be forever till they actually start filming,im thrillled.
    yayyy!twilight was so amazing.i saw it thursday night,and then loved it so much.i went and saw it this morning all my bymyself.people were looking at me like "wow shes a loner".hahahah *sigh*rob pattinson is the one and only edward culllen.ahhhmazing.im flippin out here as you can telll.YOU GOT NOTHING AGAINST TWILIGHT FANS!!



  54. 254

    Oh my goodness. New moon was my fave. I can't wait. I loved twilight I thought it was awesome seeing all the characters I loved in the books come to life like that. Especially edward and jacob. Cant wait to see how Jacob plays out in the next one :-)



  55. 255

    YES!!!!!!! SUCCESS!!!!!



  56. 256

    Re: NiceGirlsFakeIt – Ahaha so truen. Well actually just Kristen was terrible everyone else was pretty spot on…although it was hard not to laugh at the hissing and growling in the fight scenes. Sometimes Rob's face looked a little silly.One good thing about Kristen's acting is that it gave me hope. If she can get a part in these movies I'll just go take a few acting lessons and try to snag a part as leah haha. Despite her sucking I can't help but watch it over and over, good thing I work at a theater.



  57. 257

    Re: loveL0VEX – Again I couldn't agree more. I can't believe that they can honestly say that they couldn't find anyone better to play the part. I don't buy it somethings up. And their chemistry did not even exist. Kristen probably only begged for him to be in the movie so she could attempt to leave her boyfriend for him and based on their interviews togethr it's unfortunate that it probably worked. EW.



  58. 258

    Re: Sharada – I'm not sure that I know what you're talking about. Her performance in every movie is the exact same. And I'm sorry but the girl can't act. Her sad excuse for sad/angry/painful emotions is this really bad twitch where she blinks her eyes a lot. It's terrible and anyone who's seen the movie you have to know what I'm talking about. Her emotions are legit the same no matter what's going on. Whether she's happy or sad or confused you're still going to get that twitch,the open mouth stare…can we audition someone else for her part next movie please?



  59. 259

    Hell is upon us.



  60. 260

    hooray i cant wait



  61. 261

    eeep! xD
    im sooo sooo sooo exicted!!!
    I heard they start filming in january!!



  62. 262

    im love the idea of new moon! I know twilight wasnt what everyone expected, but it was still awesome!!!!!! please take iget nto consideration that the movie budget was only 37 million. in the movie industy thats hardly nuthin. since summit realizes what a big deal twilight is new moon will be very much better, even though twilight was wonderful. the actors were great for there roles and did an amazing job. i hope all the actors will do new moon. please dont think twilight was bad. its not its fault the budget was so low. ive read all the books and realize the difference between the twilight movie and the book, but it was wonderful just the same. please take this into your unjust thoughts when you are cursing twilight to the firy uderworld with hades. twilight was wonderful, so just deal with it. GO TEAM EDWARD!!!



  63. 263

    Of course! I actually loved Twilight (not as good as the book but, still awesome!) . A little rushed and weird in the first half but, after that it was amazing! I love how they just left it open like somehow they knew there would be a second movie hmmm… :)



  64. 264

    YES?!?!? CANT WAIT?!?!?!?!?!



  65. 265


  66. 266

  67. 267

    I'm excited for the double dose of Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black. Yup.



  68. 268

    YES!!! YES!!! YES!!! I'm doing my yes dance right now, haha. It's gonna be AMAZING!!!



  69. 269

    YESSSS! Perez keep an eye out for this guy, make us happy! You should get some Little Ashes info and give us the trailer here once it finally comes out ;)



  70. 270

    YESSSS. :]



  71. 271

    Heck yes I am excited!!! can't wait! :)



  72. 272

    Ew that's BY FAR the worst book in the trilogy, which is saying something…



  73. 273

    I'm SO excited for the sequel!!! Wanna know why??
    NO EDWARD!

    I'm Team Jacob all the way, so it will be nice to see more of him in this upcoming movie.



  74. 274

    HELL YEAH!



  75. 275

    YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! I CANT WAIT!!!!!!!



  76. 276

    yesyesyes im excited i just hope they get a new director !



  77. 277

    LOL. He wrote its from Stephenie and Rob.
    Its actually from KRISTEN and Rob.
    You know, the LEAD in the movie.
    Your so mean Perez, shes a nice girl.



  78. 278

    What a GREAT show! I had so much fun….headed back to see it again next week and I am bringing everyone I know!!!! The best movie I have even seen in a theatre!



  79. 279

    OBVIOUSLY!!!!!
    OME!! more twilight !!! more Robert!!
    OME!!!!



  80. 280

    hell yeah.. this movie is really good every member of my family has gone to see it different days, i just found out. hope the new one is even better than this one



  81. 281

    YES!!!!! :D



  82. 282

    Fuck yeah.
    The only thing that sucks is that in the next book, there is not a lot of Edward, meaning not a lot of Rob Pattinson ; that's beat.



  83. 283

    Hell Yes! but hopefully the scenes won't go by so fast like they did in twilight



  84. 284

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I can't wait TWIWLIGHT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND



  85. 285

    I am not happy about seeing Kristen's snouty monotone possumness that is her face or her bad acting…I'm excited about Rob Pattinson.



  86. 286

    you spelled the author's name wrong.. and why dont you mention kristen stewart?? she's a main character and actor in all of this too.



  87. 287

    Yes!!!! Totally excited! I can't wait to see Bella on the motorcycle and the Volturi at the end. If they do it right, it will rock!!!! Congrats to the cast on Twilight! It was wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!



  88. 288

    OHMAGAWD!
    i found out yesterday,
    and i almost peed my pants!
    lol.
    this is GREAT!
    i love the Twilight Saga!



  89. 289

    hells to the yess..



  90. 290

    i wouldnt use excited as the word….. i would use…… STOKED!!! haha. although new moon wasnt my favorite book, but i am still stoked for the next one, and the next one and the next one. lol.



  91. 291

    YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  92. 292

    well I am really excited, and I think Kristen did a fine job Bella is not a very enthusiastic person she portrayed her well. But re: New Moon I think they should try to combine New Moon, and Eclipse it will be more interesting that way



  93. 293

    Re: twilight84

    you saw twilight right??
    can you tell me what the actual lullaby is please???? ^^



  94. 294

    Awesome. Iread your review and you neecd to read the book and maybe you will understand Bellas character. Then Kristen can get credit where credit is due. READ, INFORM YOURSELF, then opinionate.



  95. 295

    Somewhat super excited! I haven't seen the first movie yet (because I thought the lineups would be gigantore) but New Moon is my favorite out of the twilight saga! So I'm (: (:

    I hope they don't change Jacob because Taylor Lautner is perfect (face-wise, IMO) but not so much bodywise unless he wants to grow a foot taller and wider



  96. 296

    AHHHHHH



  97. 297

    DID ROBERT PATTINSON PROPOSE TO KRISTEN STEWART????!



  98. 298

    hell yes!!!



  99. 299

    Ok I don't know what most of you are talking about…I actually liked Kristen Stewart's acting more than R. Patz…don't get me wrong, I love me some Edward Cullen, but were you all watching that movie with your eyes closed? It was GOD AWFUL! Bad acting, bad effects, bad everything! I am really excited for New Moon, but dear sweet baby Jesus can they please try not to ruin it like they did twilight?!?!?!??!?!?!!!



  100. 300

    im excited!!!

    hopefully they get a new director or get warner brothers to do it…..
    sucky special effects
