Brazil Still a Twilight Location for Breaking Dawn

After a rash of gang violence in Rio De Janeiro, shooting on the second part of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn may be delayed as the Breaking Dawn filmmakers decide how to remain safe in Brazil. Although filming on Breaking Dawn Part 2 was to begin filming in Rio in only a few weeks time, violence in Rio has caused Breaking Dawn filmmakers and Summit Entertainment to move cautiously before going ahead with the Breaking Dawn shoot in Brazil.
Last week in Rio, 35 people were taken hostage by a drug gang in a high-end hotel. A spokesperson for Summit Entertainment revealed to Radar Online that filming Breaking Dawn in Brazil is still on the Twilight table. "The possibility of filming portions of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 in Brazil has always been under consideration and we are continuing to scout locations within the country."
