Summit Entertainment is taking Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke off the sequel in this big new franchise. According to Nikki Finke of deadline daily, Summit Entertainment Co-Chairman/CEO Rob Friedman gave her a call saying "Catherine and Summit have agreed to part ways on the sequel because our visions are different." MTV has an article about Summit and Catherine's decision. Here are some excerpts.“Catherine did an incredible job in helping us to launch the “Twilight” franchise and we thank her for all of her efforts and we very much hope to work with her on future Summit projects,” said Erik Feig, Summit ’s President of Production. “We as a studio have a mandate to bring the next installment in the franchise to the big screen in a timely fashion so that fans can get more of Edward, Bella and all of the characters that Stephenie Meyer has created. We are able to pursue an aggressive time frame as we have the luxury of only adapting the novels into screenplays as opposed to having to create a storyline from scratch.” Click here to read full article.
