Vampire Shapeshifters | So ... What Are You?

President of the Rio Film Commission, Sergio Se Leitao, confirmed via Twitter   that Breaking Dawn production (assumed to be specifically for Isle Esme, not the entire production) is headed to Rio: Dawn will be shot in Rio in November. With full support of the Rio Film Commission. For security reasons I can not say when and where. The Mayor and Governor Eduardo Paes Cabral directly engaged to enable the filming of Dawn in the River Plate Gol! An estimated investment of U.S. $2 million into the economy of Rio seems all right to come and Dawn team is filmed here. Cannot say anything else. I count on your understanding. I think Rio is consolidating as a destination for international productions! All security measures will be taken to ensure a smooth shoot. The City Council and Gov. of the State will provide needed support. via Twicrack

Here's Stephenie Meyer's statement: I’m always amazed at how many in-depth questions my readers have about my characters and the world within the Twilight Saga . . . With The Official Illustrated Guide, I hoped we could incorporate as many details as possible, including character histories, like Alice’s back story. I’m thrilled with the different artistic interpretations done by Young Kim and the other talented illustrators, including Bella’s wedding dress. I hope the fans feel it was worth the wait! via TwiExaminer
