Breaking Dawn release date announced

Update – Breaking Dawn movie release date is scheduled for November 18, 2011.

The next installment of the Twilight Saga will hit the big screen this fall, and Breaking Dawn is so big that movie makers have been forced to split this one into two parts!

In Breaking Dawn the Quileute and the Volturi close in on expecting parents Edward and Bella, whose unborn child poses different threats to the wolf pack and vampire coven.

Can’t wait until November for a glimpse of the action?

I think I somehow missed this bit of news – which will be of use to all Twilight fans out there – the Breaking Dawn release date has been announced.

The fourth and final book in the vampire series will be released in the US on August 2, 2008. At this time I’m not sure when us UK fans will be able to get our hands on a copy.

According to Megan Tingley – the publisher’s Vice President: “Stephenie Meyer has written a dazzling grand finale to an epic love story. And with the extraordinary excitement surrounding the publication of Breaking Dawn, I’m thrilled that legions of new readers will now discover the saga that has already captivated millions around the world.”

In just two years, Stephenie Meyer has become a worldwide publishing phenomenon. Twilight was one of 2005′s most talked about novels and translation rights have been sold in 33 countries. The sequel, New Moon, was released in September 2006, and spent over 30 weeks at the #1 position on The New York Times bestseller list. Eclipse, the latest book in the series released on August 7, 2007, catapulted to the #1 slot on bestseller lists nationwide after selling 150,000 copies its first day on-sale. There are over 5.5 million copies of the Twilight Saga in-print worldwide.

As the novels reach the end, things are only just beginning for the movie series, with Twilight hitting the big screens on December, 12 2008; starring Kristen Stewart (“Into The Wild”) and Robert Pattinson (“Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire“).
