Finally! Progress!

Summit Entertainment announced today that they have officially selected a director for the final flick in the Twilight franchise. Oscar winner Bill Condon, best known for his work on Dreamgirls, will be the guiding force behind Breaking Dawn.

Though the studio has yet to reveal when and where production on the flick will take place, everyone involved seems tickled that Bill is onboard – including Bill. In a statement, the director revealed his excitement for the project and hopes to bring an “unique cinemative experience” for fans to enjoy.

As for the mastermind behind it all, Twilight author Stephenie Meyer, she is just as “thrilled” that Bill has consented to be a part of the franchise, saying”

“I’m so thrilled that Bill wants to work with us. I think he’s going to be a great fit, and I’m excited to see what he does with the material.”

So are we, especially if the studio attempts to cram everything in the million page book into one movie.

Which by the way, is that what you all are doing? Is it? IS IT?

C’mon! Inquiring Twi-hards are dying to know!

In the meantime, what do U think of the choice of director?
