In honor of the 20th anniversary of the publication of “Twilight”—Stephenie Meyer’s now-classic epic love story between teenager Bella Swan and vampire Edward Cullen—Lionsgate has lined up a series of special cinematic celebrations of the global phenomenon that defined a generation.

Fathom’s five-night “The Twilight Saga” engagement is more than a movie marathon—it’s a celebration of one of the most iconic franchises and love stories in modern cinema.
With the addition of new, exclusive roundtable chats for each film, this is a must-attend experience for both old and new “Twilight” fans. The Twilight Saga roundtable bonus content participants include:
- Stephenie Meyer (Author)

“‘Twilight’ fans are some of the most passionate anywhere, making this iconic movie franchise the epitome of a modern-day classic, which Fathom Entertainment is thrilled to help bring back to the big screen in this special cinematic engagement,” said Ray Nutt, Chief Executive Officer, Fathom Entertainment. “With our partners at Lionsgate, we celebrate 20 years since Stephenie Meyer’s first ‘Twilight’ book was published and encourage fans to relish ‘The Twilight Saga’.”
Since its debut, “The Twilight Saga” has grossed more than $3.3 billion worldwide, launched the careers of Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner, and sparked a cultural movement that continues to thrive today. From midnight premieres to fan conventions, “Twilight” became more than a story—it became a lifestyle.
