Despite the sometimes graphic and disturbing content of the novel, at least one person is certain that the Breaking Dawn movies will be PG-13, not R: Twilight Saga series screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg.
From an interview with Film.com:
LL: Having read Breaking Dawn, where things get ratcheted up a notch, do you still go for that PG-13 rating?
MR: Oh yeah, absolutely. That’s your audience. In this series you don’t sacrifice anything. There are some movies that wouldn’t play at PG-13, like The Hangover, but this is just not one of them for me. Again, if you’re capturing character, emotion, and emotional journey, you’re OK.
What still remains to be seen is exactly how they plan on filming some of those disturbing parts, like Bella’s birthing scene. Do you think they’ll be able to pull it off in a way that satisfies fans?
