The fifth installment of Summit's "Twilight Saga" film franchise is directed by Bill Condon and stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner.

"IMAX delivers a unique and memorable experience that is the perfect way to celebrate this special movie-going event."

"'The Twilight Saga' franchise and its passionate fans deserve an epic send-off," said Greg Foster, Chairman and President of IMAX Filmed Entertainment. "We're excited to present the saga, larger than life, in IMAX."
