Hardwicke did not initially choose Robert Pattinson for the role of Edward Cullen but, after an audition at her home with Stewart, he was selected.
Kristen Stewart was on the set of Adventureland when Hardwicke visited her for an informal screen test, which "captivated" the director. Originally scheduled for release in December 2008, Twilight was moved to a worldwide release of November 21, 2008, after Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince moved from a November 2008 release to being released in July 2009. "I've heard the stories.I know it's not normally like that when you adapt a book." Meyer, a natural pessimist, was waiting for the worst but, instead, called her experience in the book's film adaptation "the best I could have hoped for."

Hardwicke sought Meyer's feedback as she developed the movie for example, the director phoned the author after changing a scene slightly. "ur intent all along was to stay true to the book," Rosenberg explained, "and it has to do less with adapting it word for word and more with making sure the characters' arcs and emotional journeys are the same." Hardwicke suggested using voice over to convey the protagonist's internal dialogue, since the novel is told from Bella's point of view and she sketched some of the storyboards during pre-production. In adapting the novel for the screen, she "had to condense a great deal", combining some characters and leaving others out. "She was a great sounding board and had all sorts of brilliant ideas.I'd finish off scenes and send them to her, and get back her notes." Because of the impending WGA strike, Rosenberg worked full-time to finish the screenplay before October 31. Rosenberg developed an outline by the end of August, then worked on the screenplay with Hardwicke the following month. Meyer felt that Summit was open to letting her be a part of the film.Ĭatherine Hardwicke was hired to direct the film, and soon afterward, Melissa Rosenberg was hired to write the film. Erik Feig, President of Production at Summit Entertainment, guaranteed a close adaptation to the book. When Summit Entertainment reinvented itself as a full-service studio in April 2007, it acquired the rights, seeking to create a film franchise based on the book and its sequels. She said later, '"They could have put that movie out, called it something else, and no one would have known it was Twilight!" It was so different that Stephenie Meyer worried that she had made the wrong decision in selling the film rights to her novel. For example, the script transformed Bella into a star athlete.
Twilight was in development for about three years at Paramount Pictures's MTV Films, during which time a screen adaptation differing significantly from the novel was written.
