New Moon Update!

Just a couple facts about the upcoming movie New Moon. Summit Entertainment is fast-tracking the movie so it is slated to open November 20th of next year. This is one of the reasons Catherine Hardwicke(director) left Summit. The new director, Chris Weitz, has taken the job as the new director and he has eight months to make this movie...not good. Taylor Lautner(Jacob) will not return for the sequel as well. The studio said they wanted a taller bulkier Jacob and I guess they are too cheap to use CGI. Michael Copon( Bring It On: In It to Win It, Scorpion King 2) is pushing for the roll of Jacob in the next film and Ben Barnes(Prince Caspian) is pushing for the roll of Aro. With a fifty million dollar budget, this has hopes to be a much better movie than the first.
