'New Moon' Director Chris Weitz May Return For 'Breaking Dawn'

Who will be tapped to helm "Breaking Dawn," the expected adaptation of the fourth and final of Stephenie Meyer's vampire book series? According to Weitz, it just might turn out to be him, as he hinted in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

"No official offer has been made," the director said when asked about directing "Breaking Dawn." "The fans have been enthusiastic about the ['New Moon'] footage and the trailer, and the studio responds to that by feeling good about me. We'll have to see how people feel about the entire movie, not only the studio but the fans, before the verdict is out whether I direct # 4."

Comment by Lashawn on October 21, 2009 at 11:18am: I really hope so too! He seems to have a good understanding of the characters.

Comment by Theve on October 21, 2009 at 11:21am: I actually think he would be great, despite the sometimes absolute crap BD was:) Though I still prefer if they didn't make the movie, Bella isn't Bella anymore in BD , she's obsessed, Edward acts stupid or hasn't anything to say or do at all, I can cope with Bella being pregnant but with how the baby was born? And I didn't like the fact that Bella's immunity to mental attacks became useful as a shield, since I always saw that as a part of her character, not as a power... But I do believe that Weitz could pull it off , he'd make it more like it could really happen... Sry for the rant, but I reread BD just now and this things just start bothering me...
