Fans are bracing themselves for the epic finale of "The Twilight Saga" in November.
Summit Entertainment keeps releasing new exciting photos and info for Twi-hards, as well as cast revealing new information about the final film and their roles in "Breaking Dawn Part 2."
In the bestselling novel, written by Stephanie Meyers, the Denali, Egyptian, Irish, Amazon, Romanian Coven, and others come to defend the Cullens after Irina reported to the ruling vampire class known as the Volturi that the Cullens (Bella and Edward) created an immortal child. Due to her hatred with Bella (played by Kristen Stewart) because of Bella's relationship with the wolves as well as the unfulfilled revenge of her mate Laurent, she betrayed her sisters and her allies.
The movie also centers on Bella and her new transformation as a vampire, along with her and Edward's (played by Robert Pattinson) half-vampire, half-human child, Renesmee (played by Mackenzie Foy). After the birth of Renesmee, the Cullens gather other vampire clans in order to protect the child from a false allegation that puts the family in front of the Volturi.
Books & Review decided to do a re-cap of the most exciting news for "BD Part 2."
Secret Ending
The movie might turn out to be about four hours if that happened, but there's a new twist.
According to Hollywood Life, the final third of the movie will not be one that's in the book. It will be a brand new sequence.
The website reported that the new sequence was "dreamed up by [author] Stephanie Meyer and longtime screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg one night over dinner" that is much different from the book version.
"When I first read the script, I got to that part and was like, 'What?'" Robert Pattinson told Entertainment Weekly. "And then I had to go back a page."
"It does it a serious justice," said Pattinson.
Stewart agreed. "It's clearly made by someone who really likes [the saga], who really cares," she said. "That's why [director] Bill Condon is perfect. Thank God for him."

Emotional Scenes
When asked which scene from the finale was the most emotional to shoot, Condon told MTV News, "I don't want to talk about one scene because that's a surprise but you know what, the scene when Charlie (Billy Burke) meets vampire Bella for the first time and then meets Renesmee."
He explained: "This is a movie that really only has one fully human person, if you treat Taylor [Lautner] as a magical creature, so Charlie is our way into this whole thing.
"If Charlie can believe it and understand, I think the rest of the audience can too. Of course, Billy Burke is an incredible actor who can really humanize any moment, so watching him and Kristen together in that scene, I remember everything was a total pleasure in that."
New French Coven
The French Coven does not exist in the books, but fans should be excited to see some new vamps.
Henri, played by Amadou Ly, is a vampire that is gifted with the ability to physically "flick people away with his index finger," according toTwilight Wiki. Those "flicked" are thrown back noticeable distances. This might be a form of telekinesis.
Yvette, played by Janelle Froehlich, is a co-member of the French Coven. Not a lot of information is revealed about her.
How do fans feel about new vampires that are not even in the book being seen in the highly anticipated film?
"I think the fans are really going to fall in love with him," Ly told Too Fab in an interview. "There's a lovely scene with Michael Sheen that the fans are really going to love. There's also a scene where you might see me throw your favorite vampire around."
"Melissa Rosenberg and Stephenie Meyer actually added a bonus coven for the fans," said Ly in an interview with Twilight Lexicon. "I think once [the fans] give it a chance and take a look at what's being revealed by adding the new French coven, I think they'll totally be happy with the addition of the new coven. So far what I've read has been positive and I'm glad [fans] are embracing it the way they are at the moment.
Egyptian Coven
Twilight Moms recently did an interview with Angela Sarafyn and Rami Malek, who plays Tia and Benjamin of the Egyptian coven.
About being a vampire, Sarafyn said, "I didn't know what it was going to look like. It was trippy. It was, I don't look anything like that. I was really cool because I don't look anything like my character in the movie at all. From my hair to my makeup, to the clothes that I wear, I don't look anything like it. I even think I look, there's this picture out now of all the vampires, and I don't even think it looks like me. That picture, she looks Egyptian. It's crazy that this transformation happened. It was cool to finally play a character that didn't look anything like me."
Sarafyn revealed that the Egyptian vampires are not white like the other ones.
"We are all golden. We are not white. Being Egyptian, that is one of the things that stood out. We look really good."
"I know we shot quite a bit of stuff using different powers so I don't know what will make it into the end of the cut -the final cut- but-I think there should be some pretty cool surprises in store in regards to manipulating the elements," Malek said.
He also talked about the olive skin color that the Egyptian vampires have.
"In Stephanie's book it says that the Egyptian coven has an olive pallor so it was nice while we were working not to get a lot of that white make up that everyone was wearing because it's just not pleasant and I don't think it made anybody look any better than they did in real life. But it worked their vampires and it's kind of odd being a tan vampire."
Twi-hards are highly anticipating seeing Bella, Edward, Jacob (played by Taylor Lautner) and Renesmee in "Breaking Dawn Part 2."
According to Entertainment Weekly, "Breaking Dawn Part 2" is this season's most anticipated movie on Fandango's annual fall film survey. It got 51 percent of the votes. The movie was also dubbed as the best date night movie.
"Breaking Dawn Part 2" is set to release in theaters Nov. 16, 2012.
