AceShowbiz - 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.
