David Slade new Director for Eclipse


30 Days of Night Director David Slade was announced by Summit Entertainment as the new director of Eclipse Twilight 3 replacing Chris Weitz the director of New Moon as rumors say it is because of some conflicting agenda. He has been an experience director for such vampire movies but can he handle the balance with its love story?



"Meyer stated, “I am thrilled that David Slade will be directing ECLIPSE. He’s a visionary filmmaker who has so much to offer this franchise. From the beginning, we’ve been blessed with wonderful directorial talent for the Twilight Saga, and I’m so happy that ECLIPSE will be carrying on with that tradition."




"Feig said, “Stephenie Meyer’s ECLIPSE is a muscular, rich, vivid book and we at Summit looked long and hard for a director who could do it justice. We believe we have found that talent in David Slade, a director who has been able to create complex, visually arresting worlds. We cannot wait to see the ECLIPSE he brings to life and brings to the fans eagerly awaiting its arrival in summer of 2010."
