\n\tFathom Entertainment\u2019s re-release of Summit<\/a>\/Lionsgate<\/a>\u2018s Twilight<\/a><\/strong> posted $1.55M in its first day Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe feature take on the Stephenie Meyer-penned saga started its rollout Wednesday. Today, Twilight Saga: New Moon will play, followed by Twilight Saga: Eclipse on Halloween Friday, then Breaking Dawn Part 1 on Saturday and Breaking Dawn Part 2 on Sunday. The franchise re-release<\/a> is part of the 20th anniversary of the novel. The entire big-screen series is one of the most successful for a YA property, counting north of $3.3 billion at the global box office.<\/p>\n

\n\tTwilight opened on Nov. 21, 2008, to a 3-day of $69.6M in what was a highly anticipated adaptation of the vampire romance YA novel. Directed by Catherine Hardwicke, the pic launched Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart to global stardom. Twilight went on to gross $192.7M in its initial domestic release and $407.2M global. The current lifetime cume for the movie stands at $197M domestic and $413.7M worldwide.<\/p>\n

\n\tWith foot traffic expected to ratchet down on Halloween, the major studios largely held off any new wide entries this weekend.
