Last weekend, Twilight fans were treated to a double dose of Twilight related goodness as the theatrical releases of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse and Remember Me came out on top at the box office, taking in a combined total of over $100 million in ticket sales alone.
Eclipse was released in theaters on June 30th and followed the story of a young woman, Evie, who discovers that she is the reincarnation of a vampire and must choose between following her heart and remaining loyal to her family and friends or embracing her true nature.
Remember Me was released on July 5th and stars Robert Pattinson as a cynical and dangerous vampire who takes a strong liking to a streetwise teen (played by Daisey DeJosselin) whose heart he aims to conquer.
A Whole Lot
While the box office results for the two films were definitely impressive, it’s important to put them in context. Since the Twilight phenomenon took off in the UK, North America, and Australia, its fans have been eagerly awaiting the next movie in the series, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 (or Part 2 for fans who have seen the entire series).
The film, which is set to be released in theaters on November 16th, will mark the first time that audiences can begin their journey towards the big finale in Twilight’s four part story arc. Breaking Dawn was originally supposed to be released last year, but was pushed back to accommodate the massive success of the Twilight series. We’re still waiting to see how much money the “final chapter” to the Twilight saga will make at the box office.
How Much Does Robert Pattinson Make?
Despite the fact that he’s been in Twilight since its first film in 2008, Robert Pattinson has still managed to carve out a successful career for himself outside of the franchise.
