“Twilight fans are some of the most passionate anywhere, making this iconic movie franchise the epitome of a modern-day classic which Fathom Entertainment is thrilled to help bring back to the big screen in this special cinematic engagement,” said Ray Nutt, chief executive officer, Fathom Entertainment. “With our partners at Lionsgate, we celebrate 20 years since Stephenie Meyer’s first Twilight book was published and encourage fans to relish The Twilight Saga.”
The Twilight franchise began with director Catherine Hardwicke’s 2008 film, which followed Bella Swan (Stewart) moving to a small town in the Pacific Northwest, where she meets and falls in love with Edward Cullen (Pattinson). Their love story has a major complication—Edward is, of course, a vampire, and he’s not the only supernatural being in town. There are other vampires who don’t take so kindly to their relationship, and Bella’s friendship with Jacob (Taylor Lautner) proves an issue when it’s revealed that Jacob is a werewolf. Their love story and the complications that arise from it fueled the five-film saga.
The franchise was a blockbuster, launching the careers of Stewart, Pattinson, and Lautner. (A young Anna Kendrick was also in the franchise.) The cast also included Billy Burke, Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, Nikki Reed, Kellan Lutz, Ashley Greene, Jackson Rathbone, Justin Chon, Michael Welch, Christian Serratos, and Sarah Clarke.
Warner Music Group will also rerelease the soundtracks from Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse on October 31. Before all this begins, on September 12, the Twilight in Concert tour will be traveling to 60 cities across the U.S., lasting until November 30.
There are still legions of Twilight fans, so much so that there’s still more to come—there’s currently an animated TV reboot being worked on.
