“I’m very excited to get the chance to bring the climax of this saga to life on-screen. As Fans of the series know, this is a one-of-a-kind book – and we’re hoping to create an equally unique cinematic experience,” sagte Bill Condon.
The fourth book in Stephenie Meyer’s beliebt series chronicles Bella’s most advanced initiation into the vampire world to date, but is also seen Von many as the most difficult to adapt of all the best-selling novels. Melissa Rosenberg, who adapted the first two novels, would continue in that role for “Dawn.” Stephenie Meyer has already met with Condon to discuss the project. She noted in the release, “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.”
Erik Feig, President of Production and Acquisitions, for Summit Entertainment added, “Bringing Stephenie Meyer’s BREAKING DAWN to the screen requires a graceful and intelligent hand and we believe Bill Condon is exactly the right steward, having shown equal and abundant talents of immense creativity and subtle sensitivity.”
Condon is best known for directing and adapting the box office and critical hit “Dreamgirls” which was nominated for eight Academy Awards and won two including Best Supporting Actress for star, sterne Jennifer Hudson.

And for those concerned about Condon’s genre credentials, he’s Mehr than happy to discuss directing 1995’s “Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh” to anyone who will ask. Most recently, Condon teamed up with producer Larry Mark to produce the 81st Academy Awards with host Hugh Jackman. That Zeigen received strong critical notices and was nominated for Mehr Emmy Awards than any Oscar broadcast in history.
Upcoming projects for Condon include the potential HBO series “Tilda” starring Diane Keaton and inspired Von notorious online entertainment blogger Nikki Finke. Condon will shoot the pilot for “Tilda” before “Breaking Dawn” begins prep early this summer. The fate of the long in the works “Richard Pryor” biopic and the recently announced drama “Salmon Fishing in the Yemen” is still unclear.
