Hmmm, here’s some interesting news about ‘Breaking Dawn.’ Deadline Hollywood is reporting that it might be split into two movies.
Summit Entertainment isn’t talking at this point, saying only, “No decision has been made and as we have said all along, we are continuing to work with Stephenie Meyer to bring ‘Breaking Dawn’ to the big screen.”
Yeah, that’s not really saying anything, is it? The cynical part of me thinks that two films would make way more money than one, so that would be a reason for the powers that be to do it that way.

Everyone’s favorite werewolf Taylor Lautner has another film with Summit Entertainment coming up. It will be interesting to see him in something other than the “Twilight” franchise. I’m sure he’s up to the task, though, and all of those stars have to establish or re-establish themselves in other roles.
“Cancun” follows an out-of-place college kid who travels with a girl to Cancun on break. While there, the girl and her friends are taken hostage by a drug cartel, and he’s forced to save them.
The film will make the most of Lautner’s martial arts skills, which he displayed on “Saturday Night Live” …read more

Charlie Hunnam is way more than his scrappy biker character of Jax Teller on FX’s “Sons of Anarchy.” He’s written a screenplay on Vlad the Impaler, a 15th century badass whose penchant for brutality and night-fighting struck fear in the heart of the Ottoman Empire and gave his outnumbered forces an advantage on their home battlefield. He was also the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s “Dracula.”
Hunnam’s screenplay for “Vlad” will be produced by Brad Pitt’s Plan B and Summit Entertainment, the studio behind the “Twilight” series. But Hunnam says there will be no vampires in this project.
The actor became fascinated …read more

Got a favorite quote from “The Twilight Saga: New Moon”? There were plenty of great lines in the movie, either funny, dramatic, romantic or sometimes all of the above.
Some of the best are between Jacob and Bella, which I guess isn’t that surprising, since much of the movie was centered on them.
Here are a few of my favorite quotes. Feel free to add yours in the comments below, and read my full story on Moviefone.

Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) (to Bella): "You’re my only reason to stay … alive. If that’s what I am."
Edward: "The Volturi are the closest …read more

FX is nabbing rights to some great movies this year. The network just acquired the TV rights to all four “Twilight” movies in a package deal that also includes Oscar hopeful “The Hurt Locker,” Nic Cage’s “Knowing,” and the action thrill-ride “Push."

It’s always fun to see what goes on behind the scenes of a photo shoot. Here’s the scoop on the “Men’s Health” cover shoot of Taylor Lautner, a.k.a. Jacob Black the werewolf in “The Twilight Saga: New Moon.” It’s funny to see all the little things they put him through to get those shots – they literally have him jumping through hoops.

“New Moon” fever continues, especially now that the movie is finally in theaters across the country.
Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner showed up on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” last week to talk vampires, werewolves, and all that fan furor. Of course, the audience went as wild as every other audience who sees this trio anywhere. They really are handsome people, aren’t they?

Before it was confirmed that Taylor Lautner would return as Jacob Black in “The Twilight Saga: New Moon,” there were some dark times at the end of 2008. But he says he tried to focus on things he could control, rather than being sucked into the black hole of what was going on.
"Chris [Weitz] was always extremely supportive and I was glad to have him behind me," Lautner says. He is such a cutie! And I’m like some lovelorn Twi-hard teeny-bopper!
“New Moon” hits theaters in three days. Have you got your tickets? I do!
