A juggernaut at the box office a decade ago, the Twilight franchise was a worldwide phenomenon. Based on the books by Stephanie Meyer, the Twilight films brought to life the characters of Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, played by Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, respectively. To celebrate the film’s 10th anniversary, Fathom Events and Lionsgate have teamed up to bring the first film back to the big screen in for two nights only this October.
Playing October 21 and 23, the screenings will feature an introduction by director Catherine Hardwicke and an exclusive sneak peek of the brand-new special feature “Twilight Tour…10 Years Later”, from the upcoming Twilight 4K Ultra HD home entertainment release (out 10/23).
“In Twilight, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson star as the endearing Bella Swan and the mysterious, handsome vampire Edward Cullen. As their worlds and hearts collide, Edward must battle the bloodlust raging inside him as well as a coterie of the undead, led by the nefarious James Witherdale, that would make Bella their prey.”
“Twilight was a once-in-a-generation supernatural love story that became a pop-culture turning point for teens and teens-at-heart,” said Tom Lucas, Fathom Events VP of Studio Relations. “Fathom Events is thrilled to be celebrating the movie’s 10th anniversary with Summit Entertainment by presenting it on the big screen this October.”
Tickets for the event are already available through Fathom Events.
Twilight was directed by Catherine Hardwicke and starred Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Cam Gigandet, Billy Burke, Peter Facinelli, Nikki Reed, Jackson Rathbone, Taylor Lautner, Kellan Lutz and Anna Kendrick.
