'Twilight' Stars To Join Us Live From Comic-Con!
It's that time of year again, when vampires and werewolves, witches and wizards, storm troopers and Spider-Men descend on San Diego for Comic-Con International, the annual pop-culture convention that draws celebrities, movie studios, comic book publishers and all their fans to one place for four jam-packed days of panels, premieres and parties. As always, MTV News will be in the midst of all the action. This year, we are proud to announce that we will be presenting "MTV News: Comic-Con Takeover," three live-stream broadcasts on Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 6 p.m. ET/ 3 p.m. PT. The first of our three live Comic-Con-themed shows is a veritable feast for all the "Twilight" fans out there. We're kicking off our coverage in a big way Thursday with an entire hour dedicated to "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn." Mark your calendars and set your phone alerts to remind you to tune into MTV.com at 6 p.m. ET/ 3 p.m. PT for a smorgasbord of "Twilight" goodness that includes exclusive interviews with the film's superstar cast and filmmakers, news from the "Breaking Dawn" panel and other tidbits associated with the film's Comic-Con events. And that's just Thursday. Friday and Saturday's live broadcasts promise to be just as enticing as our "Breaking Dawn"-themed hour. Expect to see your favorite stars and filmmakers stopping by our studio to chat about the biggest and most buzz-worthy films and TV shows heading to theaters and television sets near you. Keep it locked to MTV.com and Splash Page for all the latest, greatest Comic-Con news. If you have any questions or comments for our "Breaking Dawn" talent coming through, send them via Twitter @MTVNews with the hashtag #mtvsdcc.
