Rob Pattinson revealed that the wheels are being put in motion to bring the fourth and final Twilight novel, Breaking Dawn to the screen, with production returning to the US for a shoot in Portland.
"I probably shouldn't say this," Rob told MTV News last weekend. "But I've heard that we're going to shoot it in Portland."
And Portland being the home and frequent location for two-time Oscar nominee Gus Van Sant, it makes perfect sense for the director to sign on to direct the fourth film.
"I think Gus Van Sant would be great to do it," Rob said. "He shoots everything in Portland," reasoned the 23-year-old British heartthrob. "He's good at making it look beautiful."
Plus, the subject matter is one Van Sant's quite familiar with. "It's all about teenage love and obsessions," Rob reasoned. "I think Gus Van Sant would be great."
