Twilight Saga Eclipse Coming to IMAX

Twilight Saga Eclipse Movie PosterDecember 9th 2009 – Summit Entertainment and IMAX Corporation announced that The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the third movie to be adapted from Stephenie Meyer’s young-adult vampire novels, will be released simultaneously to IMAX theaters on its opening day: June 30th, 2010.

To make the most of the follow-up to the record-breaking Twilight Saga: New Moon film adaptation, Eclipse will be digitally re-mastered into the giant-sized IMAX Experience with a proprietary IMAX Digital Re-mastering technology, DMR.

The third movie is directed by David Slade, whose past work includes the critically-acclaimed 2007 vampire film “30 Days of Night”. In a move similar to Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible franchise, each of the Twilight films have, so far, been helmed by a different director (Catherine Hardwicke directed the first Twilight film and Chris Weitz directed Twilight Saga: New Moon.) Meanwhile, stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner will reprise their roles of Bella Swan, Edward Cullen, and Jacob Black, respectively, throughout the series’s big screen adaptations.

Stephenie Meyer’s Eclipse, the original novel on which the upcoming movie is based, was released on August 7th, 2007 with an initial print run of one million copies, 150,000 of which were sold within the first 24 hours.
