The Twilight Saga on which the Twilight dolls are based on is a series of romance fantasy films from Summit Entertainment based on the four Twilight series novels by the American author Stephenie Meyer, starring Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner. The series has grossed over $1 billion in worldwide receipts, when not adjusted for inflation, and consists, to date (2009), of two motion pictures. The first installment Twilight was released on November 21, 2008, and the second installment, The Twilight Saga: New Moon followed on November 20, 2009, breaking box office records as the biggest midnight screening and opening day in history, when it grossed an estimated $72.7 million in its first day of release.

The series was in development since 2004 at Paramount Pictures, during which time a screen adaptation of Twilight which differed significantly from the novel was written. Three years later, Summit Entertainment acquired the rights to the film. After Twilight grossed $35.7 million on its opening day,Summit announced they would begin production on New Moon; this after they had acquired the rights to the remaining novels earlier that same month. The third installment, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse is scheduled for release on June 30, 2010 and is the first Twilight film scheduled to be released in IMAX[8], and a two-part adaptation of Breaking Dawn is projected to begin shooting in the fall of 2010.

Twilight
Twilight was directed by Catherine Hardwicke and written by Melissa Rosenberg. It focuses on the development of a personal relationship between human teenager Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), and the subsequent efforts of Edward and his family to keep Bella safe from a separate group of hostile vampires.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon
The Twilight Saga: New Moon was directed by Chris Weitz and written by Melissa Rosenberg. The film follows Bella Swan's fall into a deep depression, until she develops a strong friendship with werewolf Jacob Black. Jacob and the other werewolves in his tribe must protect her from Victoria, a vampire seeking to avenge her mate James' death, by killing Bella. A misunderstanding occurs, and Edward Cullen believes Bella is dead. Edward decides to commit suicide in Volterra, Italy, but he is stopped by Bella, who is accompanied by Edward's sister, Alice. They meet with the Volturi, a powerful coven of vampires, and are released on the condition that Bella be turned into a vampire in the near future. Bella and Edward are reunited, and she and the Cullens return to Forks.

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse
The Twilight Saga: Eclipse is directed by David Slade and written by Melissa Rosenberg. It is scheduled for release on June 30, 2010 and is the first Twilight film scheduled to be released in IMAX. Summit Entertainment released a plot summary of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse which states: "As Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge, Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob — knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella has one more decision to make: life or death".

Kristen Stewart as Bella Swan, finds herself surrounded by danger and targeted by the vengeful vampire Victoria. In the meantime, she must choose between her love for vampire Edward Cullen and her friendship with werewolf Jacob Black. Robert Pattinson plays Edward Cullen, Bella's vampire boyfriend who can read minds, except for Bella's. In New Moon, Edward left Bella, and now he has returned to try to stay a part of her life. Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black, is a werewolf in whom Bella found solace in during New Moon. Now, Edward has returned into Bella's life permanently, and Jacob is looking for ways to prove that he is better for her.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn
Though Summit has not yet officially greenlit Breaking Dawn to be made as a film, stars Robert Pattinson and Ashley Greene stated that there are plans for a Breaking Dawn film and that production is expected to begin after the completion of the series' third installment, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Meyer stated in her Breaking Dawn FAQ that if a film were to be created, she thought it would have to be made into two movies because "it's hard to imagine it fitting into ninety minutes. The book is just so long! I can't imagine how to distill it—if I could, the book would be shorter." She also believes it may be impossible to film due to Renesmee, writing that an actress could not play her because she is a baby but has complete awareness, and that "the one thing that I've never seen is a CGI human being who truly looks real"; however, she went on to state that "they develop amazing new technologies everyday, and we've got a little time left.". It has also been questioned if the studio will be able to keep a PG-13 rating due to the mature and explicit nature of "Breaking Dawn". According to Variety, the studio is considering splitting the 754-page book into two films, along the same lines as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. They are also hoping that New Moon director Chris Weitz will return to helm both pictures. If two films are made, Summit will have to negotiate new deals with the main cast, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner, since they are only under contract for four films.

When talking about Taylor Lautner's next film for Summit Entertainment, producer Wyck Godfrey stated, "Lautner will reprise his role of Jacob in Breaking Dawn beginning in late 2010, and it is likely that the final book will be divided into two films that will shoot back-to-back." Godfrey has further stated that he is looking to shoot in the fall of 2010 in Vancouver and that all three main stars are signed on to the film. Regarding Chris Weitz helming the film, he said "I think everyone would be happy and excited if he came back, but I don't think it's going to happen."
