Summit Entertainment announced that New Moon and Eclipse, the sequels to the Twilight films, will be shot back to back. This mean that it will be something similar to Lord of the Rings (filming three films at the same time). Anyway, here's what the announcement said.
"Summit Entertainment has started preparing the sequel New Moon, based on Stephenie Meyer's second book in the series, and to contain costs, the studio is filming the third book, Eclipse, back to back using the same new director. On Sunday, December 7th, Summit Entertainment confirmed that Catherine Hardwicke will not direct the films New Moon or Eclipse. Filming begins on New Moon in March, 2009, and will continue right through completion of Eclipse."
