Sydney, May 8 (ANI): Director Bill Condon has been signed up for the fourth Twilight movie ‘Breaking Dawn.’
The Oscar winning director with movies like, ‘Gods and Monsters’ and ‘Chicago’ in his kitty, will steer the 4th edition of the popular vampire series, reports The Sydney Morning Herald.
Condon is experienced with bringing theatrics to the screen as well as a touch of the supernatural.
“Bringing Stephenie Meyer’s Breaking Dawn to the screen requires a graceful and intelligent hand, and we believe Bill Condon is exactly the right steward, having shown equal and abundant talents of immense creativity and subtle sensitivity,” Erik Feig, President of Summit production said.
“I’m very excited to get the chance to bring the climax of this saga to life onscreen,” Condon said.
“As fans of the series know, this is a one-of-a-kind book - and we’re hoping to create an equally unique cinematic experience,” the 54-year-old director added.
“Since making Gods and Monsters thirteen years ago, I’ve been yearning for a return to a story with Gothic overtones,” Condon’s Facebook profile said.
Breaking Dawn is expected for release in November 2011 in the US. (ANI)
