The script of highly-anticipated "The Twilight Saga's New Moon" could have been leaked online. On Tuesday, May 5, Cinema Blend broke the news that a 105-page of what is claimed to be Melissa Rosenberg-written second draft of "New Moon" screenplay has made its way out through a Twitter page.

In its report, Cinema Blend noted that the leaked script starts with "a dream sequence in which Bella imagines herself as a wrinkly old woman, still with an eternally young and extremely diamond skinned Edward". While there is yet confirmation on whether or not the leaked script is the real deal, the site furthermore pointed out the strong chance of its authenticity since the Twitter site distributing the script has been locked.

"The Twilight Saga's New Moon" will be directed by "The Golden Compass" helmer Chris Weitz using the script penned by "Twilight" screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg. Centering on the personal conflict Bella experiences following Edward Cullen's abrupt departure, it will follow the mortal beauty as she finds herself drawn into the world of the werewolves, ancestral enemies of the vampires, and her loyalties tested.

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner return to reprise their roles as Edward Cullen, Bella Swan and Jacob Black. They will be joined by many of the original cast members, including Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, Jackson Rathbone and Nikki Reed, as well as new additions that consist of Dakota Fanning and Michael Sheen among others. "New Moon" is targeting a November 20 U.S. release.

105 pages sounds about right. Generally it translates to 1 page = 1 minute. That means that with this draft, the movie would be about 1 hour and 45 minutes long. I have yet to read or see it, so it could have just cut off or started in the middle, but I'm inclined to think that it was the full story (for that draft) based on what I know of screenwriting, assuming that this was an actual draft.

i cant believe some one did this! and im not amused with the opening scene...Edward leaves Bella in her room??...plz tell me that was a joke...the forest scene sets of the whole story showing you how heartbroken she is..and the search party that goes looking for her...there will be alot of annoyed people if that is changed to a crap 5 second bedroom scene!

if u guys dont care so much than stop complaining. and if u do care then dont read the damn script. we all knows what happens, and im sure the movie will be amazing, regardless how much they put in or leave out. And the movie will never add up to the book. The book is too amazing for a movie to change it.

I'm really excited for the movie to come out to because I'm a HUGE fan, but I think it's real dumb that someone would put the script online.

if someone really leaked the script online I think that is really stupid. If you want to hear the script you can wait until the movie comes out on Nov. 20.

Please don't blaze me for this, but if someone knows what site the script is on, can they please tell me? Thanks.

I heard the scripts were watermarked so they would be able to tell whose script it was if it got out

it's only 105 pages of the script.. there should be more. Anyway, why read the script new moon the book is out in stores, isn't that basically the script for the movie? who cares, you know what happens.

I read the leaked script yesterday...it seems pretty authentic to me, it also seems to coincide with some pics of the new moon set--like in the script bella gets on the back of a guys motorcycle and we have seen pics from the set where she is on the back of a bike. But we also see pics of mike and jacob at the movies and it isnt mentioned in this script. if this is the real deal, i hate the make up scenes with edward and bella, it seems to be just skimmed over...they didnt mention the "darkest kind of blasphemy", that line needs to be in there. Also no proposal?? there has to be a proposal....

They better make a movie for every book i will be angry if not by the way great job love it
posted by J on May 06, 2009
Exactly. Who cares. We know the story and we all hope the screenplay follows the book so what does it matter really.
posted by Mo on May 06, 2009
Oh and the movie with jes and the other one with mike and jake arent there. Plus this one say her and jes went shopping. But on the ET preview the movie scenes were definatly in there so dont freak out! if this is real, its a WAY early draft
posted by Mo on May 06, 2009
It could be the real script BUT theres no way thats the whole thing. I didnt actually read it cause i dont want to spoil and i just kinda read the scene discriptions. But that move will be like 45 minutes. I mean their miss MOST of the story only the main events are in there and i dont see them cutting that much
posted by crystal on May 06, 2009
seriously, BFD. who cares. the script is as true to the book as possible. so if there is a script floating around out there it makes no difference whatsoever.
posted by mary on May 06, 2009
Who cares? Without these wonderful actors, the music and now special effects, who cares? We have the books and know the general plot. So really ...

Its supposedly a very old version. One done before Weitz the director was onboard and had his hands on it.
posted by Kristin on May 06, 2009
The script could be real because even though it is close to the book there are some scenes that are different from the book that I don't think a fan would have imagined. And I also don't know what fan would leave out Edward's proposal, and the movies with Jacob and Mike.

ps: isnt the proposal part of book 3?

i read the script. looked ok. i didnt read any jacob/bella/movie theater scene on the script but i have seen pics of them filming it on some sites. the "leaked" script looked pretty complete to me (had a beginning and an end), but im REALLY hoping it translates to the big screen WAY BETTER than that!!!

I have a copy of what was distributed... its dated back in December and is only the second draft, so its pretty obvious that its not the whole thing. 105 pages is just the basic bones of the script.Its decent and a great leak for what did get passed out. I wanted to point out that in the article it says that the Twitter page was locked, and it makes it seem like Twitter made this move. In reality, the person simply protected their updates so sites releasing the story could stop linking back to her page.
