R Pattz WON’T get $500m for Twilight TV series
Summit Entertainment, the studio behind The Twilight Saga, has dismissed the reports Robert Pattinson will bring Twilight to TV and eventually earn as much as $500 million for the whole series (or some $1.5 million per episode).
Twilight Saga will not be turned into TV series (alas) and it won’t star R Pattz and Kristen Stewart.
However, Twilight is indeed coming to TV next year. According to reports, Showtime has bought the rights to have the TV premiere of the first movie of the franchise on January 23, 2010.
All the four films including The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn will be aired on the network starting late 2011, according to AceShowbiz.com.
In related Twilight Saga News, as Breaking Dawn filming is still under question, the latest reports claim the decision whether to make Breaking Dawn a movie or not will depend on how well New Moon and Eclipse will perform in the box office.
So far, New Moon is doing just great. Twilight Saga: Eclipse will open in theatres June 30, 2010.
