14 DAY TRIAL // Summit Entertainment was dealing with a major crisis just hours ago: several photos from the upcoming installment of “The Twilight Saga,” “Breaking Dawn Part 1,” leaked online, giving away important details about the film.
The photos (which might very well have been video screenshots and not stills, as per reports) leaked online and, as expected, spread like wild fire on Twilight fansites and celebrity blogs.
Almost immediately, Summit took action and starting summoning all sites to get them down, since “Breaking Dawn” was still a work in progress and the photos had not been released officially.
Only two of them are still up (see them here), showing two different instances from Edward (Robert Pattinson) and Bella’s (Kristen Stewart) wedding night: during and after the lovemaking.
According to MovieLine, there were more – and all of them of such a saucy nature as to bring under question how Summit will ever get a PG-13 rating for the film, as it said it would.
Fans must already know (since they probably read the books by now) that “Breaking Dawn,” the fourth and final novel in the series, includes two scenes that can potentially take the rating of the film from a PG-13 to an R: the wedding night and the birth scene.
“Also leaked: pics of Bella straddling Edward, Bella and Edward in various states of undress, the ravaged honeymoon suite on the morning after, and shots from the equally infamous bloody childbirth scene,” MovieLine says.
E! News has more: “There were even some dramatic pictures of Edward carrying an injured Bella and of the two of them gazing into each other’s eyes as they sit on the floor. I mean, the true love exuding from these photos was just mind-boggling.”
Since there were so many pictures, many speculated they were fakes and that someone was just playing a hoax on Twi-hards on April Fools’ Day.
As it turns out, the pics were all real, since Summit made sure to take them down. That only leaves the question of how Summit will include all this and still get that much-coveted PG-13 rating.
