If you’re busy standing in a line as you read this, you’re likely standing around waiting for one of two things, either tickets to the new Twilight: Eclipse movie or a new iPhone 4. However, as much as Apple fans are likely to want to lynch me for saying this, the lines for Eclipse are much longer and everyone it seems wants to see the movie, certainly much more than they want an iPhone 4 (sorry Steve Jobs).
The movie is the third in the highly acclaimed Twilight series and tells the ongoing saga of Edward and Bella, the star crossed couple we came to love in the first two movies. Assuming the movie follows closely on the plans of the book, the story should begin with the revelation that several murders are plaguing the good people of Seattle and Edward is of the opinion that the murders are the work of his fellow blood suckers.
At the same time that all this is going on, Allen Cullen predicts that Victoria has returned to Forks and is seeking Bella’s head on a platter. Literally. Jacob is also in the mix, as he overhears Bella and Edward discussing their plans for marriage. However, when Bella kisses him in order to shut him up, she realizes that she’s involved in a love triangle and will have to work hard to find a way out of her dilemma (oh whatever is a vampire struck girl to do?).
The new movie, which is coming out less than a year after the second film in the series was released is sporting a new director, David Slade. That’s because of the tight release schedule, which meant that New Moon director Chris Weiz was unable to offer his services for the latest film (he was still busy with post production on New Moon when shooting for Eclipse began). However, the movie does have the same screenwriter, Mellisa Rosenberg and of course all the stars are returning, including Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner. Rachelle Lefever however, who played the role of Victoria was not cast for this film due to scheduling conflicts. Instead, she has been replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard.
An official red carpet premier of the movie was held/will be held (depending on when you read this) on June 24 while the movie itself will be coming to theaters for the general public on June 30.
