Add comments
Twilight fans have a short wait for the next instalment of the vampire saga.
Summit Entertainment spokesman Paul Pflug has revealed that New Moon is following just 12 months after the first movie, opening on November 20 2009 in the US.
Twilight was released in the States over the same weekend this year, but is only released in the UK on Friday.
Chris Weitz will direct New Moon, based on the second book in Stephenie Meyer's best-selling series about the dangerous romance between a teen (Kristen Stewart) and a vampire (Robert Pattinson) fighting his bloodsucking instincts.
Chris is taking over the franchise from Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke.
Twilight has shot to 150 million dollars at the US box office since debuting on November 21.
