Opening now in November
Summit Entertainment is shifting Twilight – the anticipated adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s novel – to November 21st, a date, until yesterday, once occupied by Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
Warner Bros. moved the new Potter to the summer of 2009.
Says Summit’s Rob Friedman in a press release: “We by no means are trying to fill the shoes of the incredible Potter franchise for 2008, rather we are just looking to bring the fans of Stephenie Meyer’s incredible book series the film as soon possible from a programming perspective.”
