THR' discusses issues with 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn' two-part potential


'Breaking Dawn' by Stephenie Meyer - Hachette Books
A lot has changed since last fall's Variety assessment of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn's film progress. For one, not only has the film been officially announced (though not distinguishably as one or two just yet), but a director and release date (for part one, if two) are also now known.  
Back then, the fact that contract re-negotiations would be necessary to secure a fifth film for the talent involved was already noted, and today, The Hollywood Reporter has discussed the progress being made on that end.
With publications like Variety or The Hollywood Reporter, high credibility is assumed, but it is still my policy to wait for official confirmation or statements by the studio or talent involved to take that information as an absolute. So, with that caveat in mind, here's what THR had to say.
In THR's discussion of the issue, they say that contracts have been moving forth nicely with some of the headlining cast members (specifically Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner) to make a two-part Breaking Dawn but that the same might not be true for some of the supporting cast members whose salary demands are reportedly not matching up with the studio's offers.
Business dealings and hard-balling tactics are sometimes just part of the game in Hollywood, so it's not too surprising that making contract arrangements with some of the cast (whose careers are emerging nicely as a result of this franchise) has become more complicated than mere offer and acceptance.
THR goes on to speculate whether it is possible that some of the cast might be up for replacement as a result of the negotiations. For now, know that nothing's been declared one way or the other on this matter. Also, I have a feeling both sides of the coin will come to an amiable agreement soon enough.
In the same line of discussion, THR goes on to bring in the topic of Breaking Dawn(s) possibly being filmed in Louisiana. So far, no official position on that issue has been announced either, but the idea is that it'd be fiscally efficient to use this as a production location.
