Twilight author Stephanie Meyer has revealed plans to appear on the Oprah Winfrey Show on November 13 to support the launch of the film adaptation of the second book in the series: New Moon.
The Twilight series has sold over 70 million copies worldwide, according to Wikipedia, and is being made into a film series, with audiences enthralled by the love story between American teen Bella and Edward Cullen, a former human who was transformed into a vampire.
“You know I’ve been doing the hermit thing this last year, in so far as media is concerned, and I’m not changing that now, but I am making an exception.
I’m doing this for a good reason: I am so pleased and amazed and thrilled with what [director]Chris Weitz has done with New Moon that I want to talk about it, and to show my support for him. And since I’m only doing one interview, better make it big. Really big.”
In coalition with the Oprah interview, Meyer has committed to take questions from fans regarding the New Moon film via the website of the series. Questions can be submitted from noon (Eastern Standard Time) on Monday, November 9, through noon Tuesday, November 10. The answers will be posted the following week, on the premiere launch day for the film.
“I’m so very excited that you’ll all get to see New Moon in just two weeks! Then you’ll see what I’m going on about. Until then, think up some good questions for me.,” wrote Meyer.
The author has published other books, notably her adult sci-fi novel, The Host, in May 2008, but it is the Twilight series that continues to garner her the most attention from readers, particularly due to the ongoing film adaptations. More information about the author’s current work is available on Wikipedia.
I was wondering if Stephanie ever said if she was going to write a 4th book. I have watched the show 3 times and never did see her comment on that. Thanks for doing the intervies Oprah! It was great!
Hmm not to my knowledge! I think she is working on other stuff atm.
