Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has always been a little bit different, never caring about fitting in with the trendy girls at her Phoenix high school. When her m
What’s next for ‘Twilight’?
The first movie to be adapted from Stephenie Meyer’s breakout hit — about the chaste romance between rebel vampire Edward and a shy high school girl named Bella — left many, if not all, of the author’s fans in a state of religious ecstasy. Plans for the next installment, “New Moon,” are under way.

HOLLYWOOD, CA (Hollywood Today) 11/23/08 – “Twilight,” the big-screen adaptation of the Stephenie Meyer vampire novel of the same name, will get its sequel.

EW: Behind Twilight’s Success Plus Sequel Details
Stephenie Meyer’s best-selling Twilight saga just took a shocking bite out of the box office. Well, shocking to everyone but her fans. This week’s Entertainment Weekly has the story behind the smash—and the scoop on the sequel, New Moon.

Twilight, Pattinson, Stewart Hit LA at Night, Creates Mayhem
Heartthrob Robert Pattinson tried to tame his unruly hair for the LA premiere of Twilight last night, though I prefer it when he lets it flow free. He posed with his onscreen love Kristen Stewart while thousands of fans screamed with excitement. The movie boasts another hot young thing, too, Cam Gigandet who is still Volchok from The OC to me. Wherever these kids go these days madness follows and Buzz sat down to chat with Robert about it all — check out part one and part two of the interview. Jennie Gart
Plans For 'Twilight' Sequel Begin Taking Shape
Catherine Hardwicke is in talks to follow-up her record-breaking Twilight movie by directing the sequel New Moon. The filmmaker scored the biggest debut ever for a female director when the vampire love story shot to number one in the U.S. on Sunday, and she's keen to get cracking on the sequel - so her young cast doesn't change beyond recognition.
She tells USA Today newspaper, "(Twilight star Taylor Lautner) told me the other day that he had gained 14 pounds since I last saw him. He's only 16."

Twilight (2008) Movie Review
I saw Twilight twice over the weekend, each time with a person who hadn't read the book(s), and can happily report that, despite the film's sometimes glaring flaws, we all enjoyed it.
THE PLUSES:
-The casting was 50% spot-on, with Kristen Stewart as Bella, Billy Burke as Charlie, Kellan Lutz as Emmet Cullen and Ashley Greene as Alice Cullen all very well-cast, image-wise. The trio of "bad" vampires are adequate too. As a fan of the book series, I had serious doubts about Robert Pattinson as Edward before
'Twilight' Breaks Box Office Records
It was definitely a hefty display of girl power at the end of the Twilight opening weekend.

female and the largest opening ever for a film directed by a woman.
The teenage vampire flick was originally expected to pull in $60 million at most, but "word of mouth" helped bring in that $10.6 million.
Um, you're welcome, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and the rest of the gang.
