Twilight: New Moon Begins In March

By Doug - December 1, 2008 - 07:09 America/Montreal

We have some news regarding the upcoming Twilight sequel thanks to the probing prowess of Ryan Seacrest via our friends over at the movieweb:

While speaking with Twilight star, Kristen Stewart, on Kiis FM, Ryan Seacrest found out that the production start date for the sequel, New Moon, is set for March. The actress provided some more details…

“A lot of the book takes place in Italy, and I think we’re going to get to go to Italy, which is so cool,” Stewart says. “For a while there, they were like, Oh, we don’t know if we have the money, but now I think we may have the money!”

Yes, it looks like they have all the money that they need Kristen.

I have yet to see Twilight, but I think it’s wise that they ride the buzz and pump the second film out for 2010. Those involved in this fledgling franchise will hardly be able to rest before work begins anew, with all the hype still hot however I think this is the correct decision for many reasons.

Teen Vampires will continue to suck money out of our wallets. (Time to buy Kevlar pantaloons).

    I read all the books. That being said I spend nine-fifty on a ticket to Twilight opening night. The movie was just okay for me.

    I think the problem is that first person narratives are hard to translate into movies. There is so much internal thought going on in the pages, which seems impossible to express on celluloid or pixels if you prefer.

    I do think this movie will make money, but only if they keep the budget nearly the same as Twilight’s.

    fuck twilight and its sequel

  3. aaron says:

    New Moon was pretty good, so maybe this will

  4. Phil Gee says:

    Empire magazine was good enough to print a small synopsis of all the books and am I right in thinking that the next couple of films will all play out like this:

    “Make me into a vampire”
    “Hmmmmmmmm, i’ll think about it”

  5. Meli says:

    I think a target date to start filming in March sounds a little rushed when there isn’t a screenplay or a finalized cast. Sure the two main characters are set to come back, but I think it would benefit the movie not to rush it. Kristen is simply speculating, so there is a chance it won’t be a rushed production. A 2010 release date is fine as long as it’s another Fall release. They have a chance to build on a mediocre adaptation I hope they take advantage because New Moon has a lot of promise to be a way better movie than Twilight.

    I just can’t believe the amount of people that like this crap…

  7. HAZMAT_loves_gwyneth_paltrow says:

  8. Ra1d says:

    Right,good business you take a popular book put 7 mils $ into it screw up a movie - gain hundreds of milions.

    Please if you make a new moon at least put more money into it so the special effects will amaze you and not the crap you did wit the 1st book.

  20. LOVE_EDWARD 4 EVER says:

    I CAN’T WAIT I LOVE TWILIGHT

  21. LOVE_EDWARD 4 EVER says:

    This movie is going to be so cool. To bad Edward isn’t going to be in it till like the verry end.;(

  22. Cee.Jack says:

    Ok, I know that everyone is excited about it, but personally I wont go see the next movie. I love the books, but I hated the movie and i spend 10 fucking bucks to buy my ticket. I agree with Rosalon, that in the book there’s so much Bella’s thoughs on all pages that you can’t really put it in a movie perfectly. But seriously, moving parts of the story into an other place wasn’t great, i mean when Edward kiss Bella for the first time it’s not in her room but in the place they go instead of the spring bal. They skip too much important parts too! How really Stephenie Meyer could accept it!

    Sorry, as you see my deception is total. I may see it twice maybe to say that it’s not so bad… For New moon i’m just happy that Edward leave for a part of the movie,cause the actor that plays the role isn’t so good too! Well i can stop now that my frustation is gone for the moment.

  23. Lorraine says:

    wow, i have read all the books. I thought the movie was great. I loved seeing the characters come to life. I think the interaction between Bella and Edward hit it right on the nose lol.

  24. Lorraine says:

    OH, and grow up and quite cussing already!

  25. annoyed says:

    just to let everyone know,the release date in the u.s is november.20.2008

  26. angela says:

    what us wrong with everyone to the people hassling twilight if u dont like it dont watch it and to the people that love it and yes i am a fan we all love edward and we all say we want him but hello news flash we cant all have him and he does not even know we exist

    love twilight and all the stars in it are great actors

    • mindy says:

      i also think the people that dont like twilight should just not watch it and i cant wait till the movie comes out i love it and hope that they dont replace jacob with someone else becuase it will be weird to see someone else play him.

  27. Twilight Fan says:

    I’m looking forward to New Moon…I’ve read the book 3 times now!! On reading the book…i know the perfect song to match the movie : STAY WITH ME - DANITY KANE. the lyrics match and i hope its included in the movie.

  28. Just a Mom says:

    I’ve read all the books twice now. I have also gone online too read MidnightSun, I thought it is very well done. The movie was also good. It’s not really about the effects as it is about the charcters. I think the casting was done well. I think now that I have read it a second time that I found more depth in the story. I’m not a young Mom. Iam Sue Clearwaters age. I found myself actually looking forward to what was going to be next. I’d love to see SM continue the series, or allow others to write sequals with the others… such as Tanya’s family or even Maria’s. I think there is so much left undone or unsaid. Nessie and Jake could have a story to follow at some point too.
