One thing that's still not certain is whether New Moon director Chris Weitz, who took over behind the camera after Twilight helmer Catherine Hardwick departed, will shoot the third film. However, it has been confirmed that both scheduled sequels (and presumably the fourth and final film) will have the same screenwriter, Melissa Rosenberg, as the first movie.
