Breaking Dawn Movie Updates: Kristen Stewart Talks Bella's Daughter

With so many rumors on the plan of making "The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn", Kristen Stewart is expected to give some updates on the film. However, being met by MTV at 2010 Sundance Film Festival, the actress admitted that she does not have the answers for most of the questions about the movie.

"I don't even know if it's going to be one [film] or two, or who is directing it, or when it's even going [to start]," she claimed. "I know that it's going to go, but not when yet." Despite the fact that Melissa Rosenberg has been tapped to pen "Breaking Dawn", Stewart revealed that she has not read the script, saying "I haven't seen a script, but I'm not alone in really, really wondering how they're going to handle that."

Later, the depicter of Bella Swan in the vampire drama film series also talked about one of the important parts in the last installment of the "Twilight" franchise, which is the birth Bella and Edward Cullen's child, Renesmee. Though she is not sure who will portray the little girl, Stewart could say easily that "she's got to be cute". She then added, "She can't just be this scary superhuman teeth baby!"

"The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn" will continue the love story between mortal beauty Bella Swan and hundred-year-old vampire Edward Cullen. Beside Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner are also signed to reprise their roles of Edward Cullen and Jacob Black in the upcoming film. Production for the movie is expected to be kicked off in Vancouver this fall, but no director has been attached to the project.

Breaking Dawn Movie Updates: 'Breaking Dawn' filming to start this autumn

Twilight producer Wyck Godfrey expects to start filming of ‘Breaking Dawn’, the final installment of the Twilight series, in Vancouver by this fall.

The third film “Eclipse” will be released on June 30.

Breaking Dawn, the fourth and final novel by author Stephenie Meyer, may be split in two films.

“It's a work in process. The issue [of whether there will be one or two movies] is not going to be resolved until we get the full treatment and see whether it's organic. If it's not organic, I don't think it will be done, and if it is, it will be.

It really has to do with how much level of detail from the books there is, with all of these new vampires that appear in 'Breaking Dawn,' the whole section about Jacob... It's a very long single movie if it does become a single movie,” said Godfrey.

Producer hopes to find a good director
Godfrey, who is still looking for a director, hopes to find one who is both gifted in directing actors as well as in complicated visual effects.

Even though Chris Weitz, director of recent movie “New Moon,” would want to return for “Breaking Dawn,” Godfrey downplayed the possibility, saying, “I think everyone would be happy and excited if he came back, but I don't think it's going to happen.”

He added by saying he needs someone who can handle “the emotions and the intensity of the love story”.

“We're just focused on the treatment and getting that right. At that point, we're going to see who's available and who's appropriate,” said Godfrey.

Breaking Dawn—the novel and the movie
The Breaking Dawn novel, originally split in three parts, is largely centered on ‘Renesmee’, the half human, half/vamp child of Bella and Edward.

The child possesses a unique way of communicating with those around her, clearly inherited from her Dad's side. The movie will deal with Bella getting bitten by Edward and her new life as a vampire.

The beginning will also feature Edward and Bella’s honeymoon, which they spend on a private island off the coast of Brazil.

“It's such a complicated book because you have the emotions and the intensity of the love story -- so you need somebody who's just a wonderful director of actors -- and yet it's really complicated from an action and visual effects standpoint. They've got to have both tools in their kit,” said Godfrey.

Breaking Dawn Movie Updates: Peter Facinelli talks 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn'

Here's Peter Facinelli (Carlisle Cullen in The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse) giving us hints about The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn.

Movie Trailers - Movies Blog

Who do you think among these 5 directors could tackle Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn?

'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' has hit theaters, 'Eclipse' has wrapped filming and production on the final chapter,'Breaking Dawn,' has been very quiet. One might think now would be an ideal opportunity for 'Twilight' fans to take a little rest, right? Wrong.

Now that we're clear of all the 'New Moon' opening mayhem and publicity tours and since there's no Vancouver set to visit, fans are left with enough time to ponder whose name should be printed on the back of the director's chair (orchairs, if 'Breaking Dawn' is broken into two movies, as has been the rumor) ifChris Weitz is either unable, unwilling -- or unasked -- to return.

Considering the massive box office success (and the fans' overwhelming approval) of 'New Moon,' the lucky director who bags 'Breaking Dawn' will have some big shoes to fill, and should be ready to face the challenges behind this final chapter. It's clear Summit Entertainment needs to secure someone who isn't a stranger to the world of makeup and special effects -- and to the undying love between a teen girl and a vampire -- so who will be the perfect fit?

Read on for our list of five directors we think could tackle 'Breaking Dawn.'

Tim Burton: Burton has a known fondness for Gothic love tales (see: 'Corpse Bride,' 'Beetlejuice' and 'Sweeney Todd'), and his imagination expands far beyond most minds. Even 'Twilight' cast members Jamie Campbell Bower and Ashley Greene are crossing their fingers in the hopes that he'll sign onto the project. Maybe they're hoping he'll bring along his male muse, Johnny Depp.

Catherine Hardwicke: She brought the first movie to life and set the stage for other directors, so it might seem fitting and nice that she tie it all together in the end and reunite with the original cast as the curtain closes. However, her lack of experience in special effects -- and the general sense that the first 'Twilight' film didn't meet expectations -- makes her a long shot.

Peter Jackson: Best known for bringing 'The Lord of the Rings' novels to life on the big screen, he is a master behind the lens. His ability to turn a simple conversation between characters into a highly detailed scene could take 'Breaking Dawn' to the next level. Jackson's background in the fantasy genre would be a perfect fit for the Bella transformation plot of the final novel. Just imagine the power of 'Twilight' and 'LOTR' fans united.

Quentin Tarantino: His signature style mixes gore with humor, captivating the minds of audiences all over the world. His quirky take and sarcastic edge would be a great asset in bringing out Jacob's snarky behavior in the final book. Tarantino is one of the more off-the-wall directors, but perhaps that's what 'Breaking Dawn' needs. It might not hurt to have his input on the screenwriting process as well. But could he put out a PG-rated film? Umm ... we'll get back to you on that one.

Len Wiseman: He's certainly no stranger to the vampire vs. werewolf story line (the 'Underworld' films), and his affinity for the comic-book world could come in handy. He may have to tone down his darker side for the 'Twilight Saga' tween audience, but he's directed 'New Moon' star Michael Sheen before (and lived through his own romantic triangle, with Sheen and now wife Kate Beckinsale -- guess that makes him Team Edward).

There's no shortage of talented directors for Summit to choose from -- who do you think would be the best fit?

Breaking Dawn Movie Updates: Everything you should know about Breaking Dawn

Typically, when we do one of our MTV cheat sheets, it's a compilation of all the info you need to know before you go see that movie opening weekend. Sometimes, we'll even stretch things a bit and give you the 411 on a blockbuster film coming along months from now. But if there's one film worth a reworking of the rules, it's "Breaking Dawn."

Technically, the fourth "Twilight" film remains hypothetical at best. But that hasn't stopped the fans from wanting it, the series stars from talking about it, or the behind-the-scenes machinations from providing a story as compelling as Stephenie Meyer's controversial final novel. So, on the heels of the massive "New Moon" opening, here's a look at what you need to know as you wait for cameras to inevitably roll one last time on Edward and Bella.

And So It Begins

Naturally, we've been there since day one, blowing the lid off "Breaking Dawn" mania with an exclusive Stephenie Meyer interview that had the author explaining film possibilities, the novel's out-of-left-field plot twists, and even emotionally reacting to fans who had returned their copies to voice displeasure. Nevertheless, as Meyer went on tour with the novel and fans began to process its plot revelations, the black sheep of the "Twilight" saga seemed to begin winning over fans — and 47 percent of Twilighters recently selected it as the top movie in the franchise they want to see.

Who's Steering the Ship?

As the fans know, every "Twilight" movie thus far has had its own distinctive director at the helm — so, for the final movie, everybody seems to have an opinion. Jamie Campbell Bower and Ashley Greene want Tim Burton, who told us the gig could be "nice." RPattz would prefer Oscar-nominee Gus Van Sant, while many of the actors — and the fans — want Chris Weitz to be the franchise's first two-time filmmaker. (Sorry to break the news to you folks, but the "New Moon" director hopes to be a full-time surfer by the time "Breaking Dawn" hits theaters.)

Wait Till You See This

Bella Swan giving birth? Edward Cullen tearing her open? Jacob Black making his move ... on their infant daughter? At times, "Breaking Dawn" can be weirder than Gary Busey on a red carpet, so it's no surprise that Taylor Lautner is a bit unsure how he'll film his character's twists and turns. The star was surprised when he first read the novel, and Kristen Stewart still has trouble wrapping her head around Bella's decisions. This much is certain: Whoever does direct the final movie will have their work cut out for them.

Two Is Better Than One?

Harry Potter's fans were so loyal that the franchise's handlers said they'd rather make two movies than abridge "The Deathly Hallows" too much. Ever since Meyer herself told us exclusively in July 2008 that she liked the idea, the notion of similarly splitting "Breaking Dawn" has proven as difficult to escape as James the "tracker" vampire. That's good news for Taylor Lautner and others who can't wait to get cameras rolling, although RPattz has expressed some concern over becoming "Twilighted out." Well, if he needs some extra energy on the set, Rob could always find inspiration in the sugar rush of a delicious "Twilight" chocolate bar.

Where's the Green Light?

The fans have their 10 bucks ready, the actors want in and Stephenie Meyer has given her blessing. Now all we're waiting for is a suit to give the official thumbs-up. Screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg has been asked back, $141 million in opening-weekend box office certainly helps the franchise, and Summit even recently sold the rights to FX to air four "Twilight" movies. With the announcement seemingly inevitable and RPattz saying the series could return to Portland, "New Moon" mania and "Eclipse" eagerness may soon give way to ... "Breaking Dawn" dementia?

Breaking Dawn Movie Updates: Jacob's New Love In Breaking Dawn

If you've only seen the movie "Twilight" and plan to watch the sequel "New Moon" this weekend, you might get caught up in all the Team Edward vs. Team Jacob hype. If you haven't read Stephenie Meyer's best-selling novels, you might not know which monstrous young man ends up with Bella, and you might not know about some of the stranger elements of "Breaking Dawn."

Taylor Lautner, however, has read the books. And with a "Breaking Dawn" movie as inevitable as death, taxes and "CSI" spin-offs, he's a bit freaked out about what's to come. As Taylor told us recently, he'll have to work closely with the film's director to handle the delicate material.

(Spoilers from "Breaking Dawn" are ahead!)

Movie Trailers - Movies Blog

" 'Breaking Dawn' kind of came out of left field. It's a very different movie," Lautner grinned, remembering that he was a bit shocked last year when Meyer's final novel was published.

In the book, Bella and Edward get married, go on their honeymoon and give birth to a vampire/human hybrid baby they name Renesmee. Having lost the battle for Bella, Lautner's Jacob Black is present at the baby's bloody birth — and almost immediately "imprints" on the newborn, essentially claiming her as his soul mate.

"It caught me by surprise when I read the book," Lautner admitted. "I think I originally heard it happened through somebody who had already read it — and I didn't believe it.

"Then I read the book, and I was like, 'You've got to be kidding me,' " he said. "Now that I've thought about it more and more, I understand it more and more. But still, in the back of my head, I'm like, 'That's a little odd.' "

Now, the biggest obstacle if there is a fourth "Twilight" film would seem to be figuring out a way Jacob could claim an infant child as his lover without seeming like some sort of borderline-pedophile weirdo. "It might be a little odd actually doing that," Lautner admitted.

With a grin, Taylor jokingly imagined his scene. " 'Hey, Bella, your daughter? She's smokin'!' " he laughed. "I don't know [how I'm going to do that]."

But even though "New Moon" marks Taylor's first performance as Jacob with the knowledge of how it all will eventually conclude, the actor insisted that he couldn't let the Renesmee thing cloud his scenes romancing Bella. "I've tried to stay as focused as possible on the movie that we're doing now," he said. "My focus has just stopped with 'Eclipse.' "
