‘Twilight: Breaking Dawn’ Producer Wyck Godfrey Gives Part 1 & 2 Details

Written by Violet on January 10, 2011 – 5:34 pm -

Of all the Twilight books to be turned into a film, Breaking Dawn is the most challenging. It has much more adult themes, is considerably longer than any of the other books and has multiple points of view. It’s left everyone wondering how these things were going to be handled by new director Bill Condon.

Producer Wyck Godfrey is giving up some info on Parts 1 and 2:

Where do the movies split?  Godfrey says just as Bella (Kristen Stewart) turns:

“We basically want to take the audience through the emotional part of Bella’s journey as she becomes a vampire. The first part will cover the wedding, the honeymoon and the birth.” The film ends just before she embarks on her supernatural transformation.

Twilight Saga NEWS: Breaking Dawn Part 2 Gets Release Date

Written by Gossip Gal on August 4, 2010 – 6:30 pm -

This is the end!! The end of Twilight and the end of an era in the movie industry! The Part II of “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn”, fifth and final movie, will hit theaters on November 16, 2012. REALLY!!

Breaking Dawn Part I will be released November 18, 2011. And then, we will all have to wait another year to see the final scenes of The Twilight Saga! NOT fair! However, it is one heck of a marketing strategy – make it last longer!

SPOILER: The big scene set to divide the two movies is the epic childbirth scene and Bella’s transformation. I have no clue how they will manage to pull it off, but there won’t be any graphic images and gory details. Boo!

“The childbirth – all the scenes, I feel – should be on screen,” screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg said. “Would we actually see Edward’s teeth through the placenta? I don’t think so. I don’t think we need to see that.”

She adds with a laugh: “If someone needs to see that, I think they should take a look at that.”

And I respond to Mrs. Rosenberg! The people who want to see that scene are the same people who actually read the Twilight Saga books, so please do not offend the fans, suggesting we are all crazy obsessed people. :mrgreen: Anyway! We cannot wait to see Breaking Dawn!
