Acting411 is reporting that Breaking Dawn will be filmed in the Spring of 2010, and released in early 2011–

Summit Entertainment has acquired the rights (optioned property) from Stephenie Meyer to film and distribute Breaking Dawn, the fourth novel in her series. The project has now been green lighted by the studio. Pre-production for Eclipse is already underway, and Breaking Dawn is in the early planning stages. Casting information will be posted here as soon as available. “Breaking Dawn” will start shooting in the spring of 2010, with a release scheduled for early 2011

While this has not been confirmed officially, the same site previously reported accurate information about New Moon’s production schedule. For Renesmee, maybe they can recruit this 17-month old wunderkid, who’s already speaking and reading.

[thanks, Denice!]

Here are a couple of New Moon fan posters featuring members of the Volturi using the actors that will be in New Moon such as Michael Sheen and Cameron Bright. The Alec one goes quite well with the Jane poster featuring Dakota Fanning made by Jangsara.

The Daily Mail notes the trend in fashion and popular culture towards more beefy, built men rather than waifish metrosexuals. New Moon certainly fits this mold, with an entire menagerie of hunky men at its disposal–

Goodbye metrosexual twigman with your sad little manbag – you never did it for me – and hello beefcake beast. Where have you been?

It should come as no surprise. Economic depressions have always walked hand in hand with the worship of raw machismo. That is just the way it goes.

Who needs a sensitive accountant when all the money is going? Who needs a man to talk shoes when all the shoes have gone?

It is better to have a man who can mend things for you. And butcher sheep. And build houses and grow vegetables and make things out of bits of wood.

Won’t you feel safer? Won’t you feel better, knowing that there is a serious lump of muscle between you and the cold, cruel world outside?

Check out the rest of the article over at The Daily Mail.

Here’s a HQ version of the official wolf pack photo that was revealed last night by USA Today. In it, you can more clearly make out the tattoo that each member of the wolf pack is inked with. It seems to be something like the Cullen Crest–a new graphic symbol invented just for the movie. Consider it a logo for all the New Moon merchandise we’ll be seeing–and which I’ll be undoubtedly buying.

[thanks, M.!]

In preparation for the Australian release of Twilight, a radio station down under has interviewed New Moon star Ashley Greene. You can listen to the show on their site (April 21st show), or download it directly as an mp3. It’s also available as a free podcast on iTunes. She talks about Robert Pattinson, her earlier work and seems to hint at Eclipse and New Moon filming together.

[thanks, Marnie and Anita!]
