For those of you who can’t get enough Edward and Bella, EW announced  on their website that Yen Press will be publishing Twilight in graphic-novel form, publication date still to be determined. Though Korean artist Young Kim is creating the art, Stephenie Meyer herself will be reviewing every panel.

The manga-style adaptation of Meyer’s books sounds, from the story’s description, as if it will be a straight words-to-comics of existing stories, but there is no word yet on how many books are currently planned. At least for now, though, everyone asking has their answer.

Nevertheless, this announcement will likely be a hot topic when “Twilight” fans descend on Hall H next Thursday for the “Twilight: New Moon” panel at San Diego Comic-Con. Since that room is going to be packed with a hybrid crowd of “Twilight” and comics fans, you can bet these new books will be on a lot of minds.

What do you think of the artist rendering above?  Overload or will you buy it?

Book Cover

The big day is coming November 21st.  Are you ready?  Meet the cast and refresh your memory to get ready for the Twilight movie.  Does the movie cast fit who you pictured when you were reading the book?

The right cast? | Kristen-Stewart_l
KRISTEN STEWART
Role Intuitive heroine Bella Swan
Where you’ve seen her Stewart’s built her résumé playing daughter to some of Hollywood’s biggest leading ladies, including Jodie Foster, in Panic Room, and Meg Ryan, in In the Land of Women. More recently she played singing teen Tracy Tatro, in Into the Wild.

For her part, Stewart was attracted to the role of Bella because of the gawky teen’s first brush with romance. ”What I love about the story,” Stewart says, ”is that it’s about a very logical, pragmatic girl who you think would never get swept into something that has this bizarre power.”

ROBERT PATTINSON
Role Smoldering vamp Edward Cullen, who craves Bella’s body — and her blood
Where you’ve seen him The brooding Brit is best known as doomed wizard Cedric Diggory, from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

At first, Pattinson was unsure how to play the most beautiful creature on Earth. ”Here’s this guy who seems to be the embodiment of every single perfect guy. Okay, I’m going to look like a complete idiot if I just try to do that — like give a half-Fonz, half-George Clooney impression,” Pattinson says. ”But then I did it with Kristen and it was completely different. We had this chemistry that just worked.”

The 16-year-old also has a recurring role on the Christian Slater spy series My Own Worst Enemy.  Though Lautner’s role in the first of the Twilight flicks is small, it is integral: He helps Bella uncover vampire Edward’s true identity.

The right cast? | Peter-Facinelli_l

PETER FACINELLI
Role Dr. Carlisle Cullen, the patriarch of the vegetarian vampire coven
Where you’ve seen him Facinelli broke Jennifer Love Hewitt’s heart as douchey jock Mike Dexter in the teen flick Can’t Hardly Wait.

Where you’ve seen her Reaser had multiple identities (Jane Doe! Ava! Rebecca!) on Grey’s Anatomy before dating multiple former flames on the recently canceled Ex List.

NIKKI REED
Role Emmett’s mate and resident sourpuss Rosalie Hale
Where you’ve seen her Reed first teamed up with Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke in 2003, co-writing the film Thirteen, which Hardwicke directed and Reed starred in. They met up again on 2005’s Lords of Dogtown before Reed moved to The O.C. to play one of Ryan’s love interests.

Twilight Movie Reshoots: Why are they filming again?

Thought everyone would enjoy some fun news about Stephenie Meyer after the Midnight Sun controversy.   The Twilight movie is in the midst of some re-shoots and Entertainment Weekly has the scoop.

 | by Nicole Sperling

Twilight2_l Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke confirms to EW.com that she’s currently overseeing reshoots on her adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s book (now opening Nov. 21). “It’s pretty cool,” Hardwicke e-mails from Pasadena, Calif., where she’s filming the new material. “We got to shoot some things I really wanted.” While reshoots often hint that there may be a problem with a movie, that doesn’t appear to be the case with Twilight, whose initial 44-day Oregon production faced multiple weather-related difficulties.

Thus, a few key aspects of the production are getting further attention. One redone scene shows Edward (Robert Pattinson) playing Bella’s lullaby. During the movie’s initial shoot, Pattinson performed the scene while improvising with his own music; now he’s playing the actual song, which has been written by veteran film composer Carter Burwell (best known for working with the Coen brothers). “[Pattinson] is a great pianist, long vampire fingers,” Hardwicke says. And if that doesn’t whet your appetite, Hardwicke also reshot the bedroom kissing scene on Thursday. The first time around, Kristen Stewart, the actress who plays Bella, was still 17, and between juggling three hours of school work per day plus numerous camera setups, the scene was never finished. Hardwicke also shot a few new scenes: more of Jacob, more on the Cullens’ backstory, and more footage in the meadow. Says the director, “It’s all just icing on the cake.”
