Twilight fans, get ready! The beloved love story of Edward and Bella is returning to theaters. To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the original book release, Lionsgate and Fathom are screening all five films—Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and the Breaking Dawn duology—in theaters from October 29 to November 2.
Each screening will feature a different film on a designated day. Additionally, live musicians will perform a concert version of the score during the first movie in select U.S. cities. If you remember the recent concert screenings for the Spider-Verse films, this is a similar experience you won’t want to miss. In line with this celebration, Warner Music Group is re-releasing soundtracks for the first three films, just in time for Halloween.
Ray Nutt, CEO of Fathom, expresses: “Twilight fans are among the most passionate, making this iconic franchise a modern classic. We are excited to celebrate this milestone with a special cinematic engagement.” With Lionsgate, they are inviting everyone to enjoy the magic of The Twilight Saga together.

The franchise catapulted stars like Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner to stardom.
