Will Juan Antonio Bayona direct Twilight saga movie: Eclipse?
From The Orphanage to Twilight
It’s a bit odd that Summit wants a completely different direct for each of the three Twilight films, but maybe it’s good that they keep things fresh. For those who aren’t familiar with Stephenie Meyer’s novels, Eclipse focuses on an “army” of newborn vampires who show up in the Seattle area. The Cullen family joins forces with Jacob’s werewolf pack to fight off these new vampires in a big battle. I know a lot of people who thought Bayona’s The Orphanage was one of the best horror films in recent years, so it’ll be very interesting to see how much he brings to the Twilight franchise. Maybe he’ll actually attract a wider audience this time?
I want to say this is too fresh to call it DONE, but when you see the speed with which the Twilight saga movie production has been going, I wonder if it is one of the fresh things.
I don’t have a particular opinion about Juan Antonio Bayona. I don’t really know his work and I try not to talk about what I don’t know. The fact that this is going to be a different director is something that can talked about. I’m sure this is kind of dangerous for a production because they have to be on the very same page to make sure the movie keeps its spirit and feeling. Again, this only elevates my cuiausity (in a good way).
