Production

When Summit Entertainment reinvented itself as a full-service studio in April 2007, it began development of a film adaptation of the 2005 vampire novel Twilight written by Stephenie Meyer,[1] having picked up the rights from Paramount Pictures in a turnaround.[2] The company perceived the film as an opportunity to launch a franchise based on the success of Meyer's book and its sequels.[3] The following October, Catherine Hardwicke was hired to direct the film with Mark Lord and Melissa Rosenberg penning the script.[4] Production began in February 2008,[5] and filming lasted for about 3 months. Scenes were filmed primarily in Portland, Oregon.[6] Kalama High School is serving as the primary setting for the school in the book, having been chosen over Forks High School itself.[7] Other scenes were also filmed in St. Helens, Oregon.[8] The studio hopes to create a series of at least three films based on Meyer's books.[9]
