‘New Moon’ Starts Shooting in March
I never thought I’d be bringing you news from Ryan Seacrest’s radio show, but here it is. Â He was talking with ‘Twilight’ star Kristen Stewart on his KiisFM show when the subject of the film’s sequel, ‘New Moon’, came up. Â Stewart told him that the sequel begins shooting in March, just four short months away. Â
If you give two or three months for principal photography and another three months for post-production, that means ‘New Moon’ could potentially get a release sometime late next year. Â As ‘Saw’ has become an October tradition, the ‘Twilight’ series could easily become a November tradition.
For the full interview with Stewart, as well as Seacrest actually reading from the ‘Twilight’ novel, check out the ‘Twilight’-themed page KiisFM has set up on their site.
So far, ‘Twilight’ has made $119 million, almost tripling its $37 million budget in two weeks.
So, what do you think? Â Is one year enough time to put together a solid sequel to ‘Twilight’? Â Would you like to see the ‘Twilight’ movies get punched out as fast as the ‘Saw’ films? Â Let us know by commenting below!

I’m happy they start shooting in March. However, I hope they don’t rush it. But I will be one of the first in line to see the sequel.
not at all, but i’ll give it the benefit of the doubt! maybe for the third book/movie they’ll pull a harry potter and get an amazing director like alfonso cuaron and really turn it out….yeah i can wish! ces’t la vie!
the movie just opened and we are already discussing the sequel..shoot me now.
haha
cant wait to see the sequel…. hope it will be more great,
I really hope TPTB over at Summit realize that the Twilight saga has a much broder demographic than just screaming teens! The movie was a disappointment as it lacked key elements that made us all fall in love with Bella & Edward! Hopefully with the complexity of the second book will bring with it a new director and a much longer film! I felt cheated with the 1st movie, there was absolutely no character development, we all know just how big a part of this saga it should have been!
I am very happy to hear that they are shooting in March and i think i would be great if they all came out in November.I would have to just say i can not wait and i will be one of many to see it the first day it comes out just like twilight!
i am glad that they are going to start shooting, but i am also dying to know if Taylor Lautner will still play Jacob Black . I feel that they HAVE to keep him as jacob ! Anyways, i want the sequel to be better than the first one . They left way toooo many scenes out thatwere verrrry IMPORTANT . Also, i hope this new director will know what he is doing and take it slow so they canget in all the good scenes .
I would love if it came out next year… as long as they don’t ruin it. I hope there is a new director though….. i don’t think that edward and bella were that very well portrayed as the both were very awkward around each other and were always stuttering. In the book the characters were more coherent and there was more character development. Although i think that every one else was portrayed well. Also some parts of the movie were kinda arkward and could have gone with the book and made it smoother.
you can shoot anytime you want, just don’t take away the “jacob” we learned to love just as much.pleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaassssseee.
Im so excited to hear they r makin th film soon becuz it wuldnt b the same if they waited to long ofcourse i want the movie to turn out great but i think it will b great no matter how long it takes.

New moon is absolutely my favorite book in the whole series (but no i am not a jacob fan ha) so i really hope they do it right. i really enjoyed twilight so im definitely looking forward to seeing new moon. they should get the books turned into films soon because rob is already 22 years old… sooner or later hes not going to look anything like a 17-year-old vampire
oh and for “luvedtwilight” im pretty sure its a done deal that taylor lautner is jacob black again for new moon :]
i’m soooooo happy they are starting so soon because i’m so excited and anxcious to see it so the sooner the better!
i’m so excited the sooner the better! i was amazed by twilight and hope to be more amazed by new moon! the only thing that could make it better than it already will be is if theres less jacob and more EDWARD!
thank god! im so glad! this movie is amazing man! xd i love the books andddd….rob!!! i can say i fell in love with a fictional character…people who dnt like this movie or the books have some serious problems! CANT WAIT FOR NEW MOON!!!!!
first i would like to make a shout up “HAPPY 17TH BIRTHDAY TAYLOR LAUTNER!!!!!!!!!”
okk anyways i cnt wait till new moon comes out and i promise you i will be seeing it at midnight like i did with twilight!!!!!

I cant wait for New Moon. I do hope it is better than the first. Twilight lacked some scenes from the book, but it also has 13 deleted scenes! Ahhhhhhhh! I also don’t want it to be rushed, but I heard that it is coming out November 20 o 21 of 2009! I have a Bella Cullen myspace and if you want to check it out, search for me. my name is Bella Cullen. There are a lot and I need more friends. You can also e-mail me at bella_edward_90@yahoo.com! Please visit! I need more friends!
i think that they should have more time for new moon cuz if they rush it, it wont come out as well as twilight
i think that they should have more time for new moon cuz if they rush it, it wont come out as well as twilight. If there trying to make a lot of money at least try to make it something people would want to see twice.
THEY START FILMING TODAY!!!!! YAY!!! I CANT WAIT TO SEE IT! …. I WISH I COULD FAST FORWARD THROUGH THE PART WHEN EDWARD LEAVES….
l i will not be a november tradishion i was told that Eclipes should be out June 20,2010 aks edward cullen’s birthday
OMG DO NOT RUSH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As much as i love the Twilight saga I ddnt think the movie was great, the only good thing was that I liked all the actors and imagined the characters to be like them when I was reading the book (except Rosalie.. She’s supposed to be super hot but the actor isnt rli..) and Rob Pat and Kristen has a GREAT chemistry in the movie.. Other than that everything was pretty average. Especially Rob’s acting.. Edward is supposed to be smooth, not awkward!
But looking forward to the next movie anyway. Now they know what a massive success the first movie and the books are they should put some more budget into making the 2nd one right…. Fingers crossed it will be as successful as the Harry Potter movies!
I am so pumped for New moon … Im a huge fan and I think a year wait will be totally worth it. If you rush something it will just turn out to be complete crap and no one will be happy.
