It’s also not technically a deviation from the book’s plot. As a Twilight book fan who saw it in theaters, it was a hell of a good time.
It allows fans to see this cast and these characters battle it out in the most dramatic of ways without changing the ending of a beloved story. Honestly, this entire sequence is a gift. The movie gives each and every gruesome death its moment in the winter sun, letting the potential plot and character implications hit.
The CGI-driven action is brightly lit and easy to follow. That was, I would say, the biggest thing I worked on for two years.”Ĭondon’s delight in bringing this sequence to life translates to the screen the director goes all in for the vampire-werewolf battle, which features some truly gifted thespians (including both Michael Sheen and Rami Malek) fighting wolves and glaring at one another intensely across the snowy tundra. (For those keeping track at home, it was: Carlisle, Jasper, Jane Caius, Marcus, and Aro.) “When I got involved, it was just a sentence, ‘There’s a battle.’ But then it was fun to actually come up with it. “To me, it’s like an eight minute musical number,” director Bill Condon told Vulture in 2012 of the film’s wild climax, adding that he had particular fun deciding who would be killed in the “dream” sequence. The movie reveals that the sequence is simply a vision Alice Cullen shares with Michael Sheen’s Volturi leader Aro in order to convince him to settle their families’ vampire disagreement over Renesmee peacefully, which they do. In 2012, with the release of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2, the final installment in the paranormal romance adaptation, it did just that, delivering a twist ending bloodbath that seemed to differ wildly from the book’s canonical conclusion… before immediately backtracking on the entire thing. Let it never be said that the Twilightfilm franchise doesn’t know how to make an entire movie theater gasp aloud in shock and horror.
