The Twilight franchise is finally coming to an end this November with the release of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2, but the entire series will have one final hurrah. Summit recently announced that “The Twilight Saga Marathon” will hit theaters across the country on November 15th, a day before the release of Breaking Dawn Part 2. Fans will be treated to all four of the previous Twilight flicks on the big screen, followed by the premiere of Breaking Dawn Part 2 at 10pm local time – a full two hours before the midnight screenings. On top of over 10 hours of Twilight movies, viewers will also see exclusive content that will play between the films, and they will be able to take home their own collectible event lanyard.
