Twilight Eclipse Movie

The third leg of Stephanie Meyer’s “Twilight” book series sold $68.5 million of movie tickets in its North American debut Wednesday, the second-biggest opening ever.

“The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” fell short of the $72.7 million “New Moon” took in last November when it opened the Friday before Thanksgiving. “Eclipse” tops the prior Wednesday-opening record of $62 million set a year ago by “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.”

“Eclipse,” distributed by Summit Entertainment, is playing at a record 4,416 theaters in North America. The movie also saw some $30 million in ticket sales for midnight and early morning showings, also a new high.

Ticket sales are expected to remain strong throughout the Independence Day weekend, typically one of the strongest movie-going periods of the year. Box-office analysts are on watch for whether “Eclipse” can top “Spider-Man 2,” which in 2004 also opened Wednesday, June 30 and took in $180.1 million in its first six days of release, still the record for a July 4 period. The overall 6-day record is 2008’s “The Dark Knight” at $222.2 million.

Kellan Lutz doesn’t want guys to be scared off by the “Twilight” love story.

In fact, he assures guys that the upcoming sequel “Eclipse” is “badass.”

“The action really drew me in and I think the guys are really going to like this movie,” he told MTV News, suggesting that both the romantic and action elements would make a great date-night movie.

Without spoiling too much of the plot for those who haven’t read the books, “Eclipse” will mobilize the vampires and the werewolves in a battle that involves Bella (Kristen Stewart) of course.

“I enjoy doing action movies,” said Lutz. “I enjoy being, you know, fighting and stuff like there, but there’s a lot of action [this time around]. A lot more than the love story.”

You can get a sneak preview of the action in the “Eclipse” trailer that will play before Robert Pattinson’s “Remember Me,” which hits theaters on Friday, March 12. “Eclipse” will premiere on June 30.
