Summit Entertainment säger att de fortfarande inte har satt något datum till när den andra delen av Breaking Dawn kommer ut. Vi har hört att det skulle komma sommaren 2012. Men som sagt så har Summit inte bekräftat det än eftersom att det tydligen ska komma ut fler "bloodbusters" den sommaren.

TWILIGHT Saga fans be warned - we don't have good news to bring you about the final chapter, Breaking Dawn.

According to insiders, two of the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn's biggest stars - Ashley Greene who plays Robert Pattinson's sister Alice Cullen and Kellan Lutz, who stars as Emmett Cullen, may be recast.

The actors, who portray some of the best-loved characters in the movie series, are reportedly facing the axe over a salary dispute - and could be replaced by new faces.

Initial contracts for the stars of the Saga were for three movies, but bosses have been forced to renegotiate after plans to split Breaking Dawn into two parts were finalised.

The other stars - Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner - are believed to be close to signing deals, with Peter Facinelli (Carlisle Cullen) and Billy Burke (Charlie Swan) already confirming contracts.

But it seems deals for Kellan and Ashley are proving problematic.

A source said: "We may have a situation where one of them is thrown out on the street to make a point."

The news is reminiscent of Rachelle Lefevre (Victoria), who was replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard for Eclipse when Lefevre's agents made fresh salary and scheduling demands.

"This thing is gonna be two movies," another insider added. "With or without the cast intact."

Nu är det officiellt – Bill Condon blir regissören för Breaking Dawn filmen och Stephenie Meyer kommer att bli producent. Äntligen är bekräftat och frågan är bara nu om det blir en eller två filmer utav boken.
