Summit says “5 films” talk is premature; Boo-Boo retracts comments
After Boo-Boo Stewart told Access Hollywood last week that he was signed on for three films, word spread that Breaking Dawn would be either split in two or that there would be another film after Breaking Dawn was complete. A representative from Summit contacted AH to clear the air.
“We appreciate our young actor’s enthusiasm for the franchise and his role, but his comments about the number of films were unfortunately uninformed and not accurate,” the Summit rep said in a statement to Access.
Although BooBoo has contract options for additional films after “Eclipse,” there are no guarantees yet that those films will be made.
And while a fourth film in the series is likely since there are four books in the popular Stephenie Meyer’s series, the studio could not confirm “Breaking Dawn” would make it from the page to the screen just yet.
“However, the fans should rest assured the we’re working with Stephenie Meyer to bring ‘Breaking Dawn’ to the big screen,” the rep continued.
“New Moon,” the second film in the series, will hit theaters on November 20. Filming on the third chapter, “Eclipse,” began earlier this month in Vancouver.
In addition, Boo-Boo Stewart retracted his comments in a statement to RadarOnline.
“There was some false communication, so far it’s just Eclipse that’s coming out,” Stewart said in an exclusive interview with RadarOnline.com.

Poor Boo-Boo. He is just a kid. He doesn’t know! (Actually, my guess is that he does know and that he spilled the all-too-secretive beans…).
