I know it’s hair raising. A Twilight Filipino Version? What could ABS-CBN be thinking? The rights to do the Twilight tv version Takipsilim was allegedly bought by ABS-CBN for $1 million. They could be banking on the novel and movie’s popularity to be a hit among Filipinos.
I wonder if they can pull it off considering all the negative reactions from Twilight fans. There’s even a website petitioning to stop the local adaptation of Twilight.
However, there are bloggers who believe that this is just a hoax. There was no official news from the ABS-CBN and looking at the poster that is spreading on the net it’s obvious that it’s been Photoshopped.

The supposedly unofficial cast of Takipsilim includes:
Rayver Cruz as Edward Cullen
Shaina Magdayao as Isabella Swan
Valeen Montenegro as Alice Cullen
Gabby Concepcion as Dr. Carlisle Cullen
Luis Manzano as Emmett Cullen
Al Tantay as Charlie Swan
Yayo Aguila as Renee Dwyer
Fred Payawan as Jacob Black
Carlos Agassi as James
Chin Chin Gutierrez as Esme Cullen
Karylle as Rosalie Hale
Joross Gamboa as Jasper Hale
Jessy Mendiola as Jessica Stanley
Empress Schuck as Angela Weber
Brad Murdoch as Laurent
Nikki Bacolod as Victoria
Aaron Villaflor as Mike Newton.
So, what do you think, is it true or a hoax? Let’s just wait and see. Either way, it will be fun. If Twilight is Takipsilim then we should all watch out for the sequels.
New Moon – Bagong Buwan
Eclipse – Eklipse
Breaking Dawn – Bukang Liwayway

can you just respect the writer of twilight and it’s director?

twilight will always be twilight and never be TAKIPSILIM, for crying out loud!!!!!!
and for goodness sake, walang artista ang bagay sa role na yun, goodness!!!
Listen ABS-CBN… I’m saying this coz i’m concerned!! I’m a Filipino and a Certified Kapamilya… but you’re just gonna ruin your reputations and not to mention,, our country’s reputations!! I’m totally PISSED OFF and OUTRAGED from what you’re gonna do!! I’m an obsessed twilight fan and i’m not gonna let this happen.. And I mean,, look at your cast!! I don’t mean to be offensive but they’re not even close as being “OK” or suitable to the twilight characters… And trust me,, you might lose a humongous number of viewers..
Please ABS-CBN I dont ruin “twilight” please dont ever attempt!!!
(and please sa mga KIMERALD FANS!” wag na kayo mag react na baduy nga pag ginawa (salamat sa pakikiisa!) pero sabay sabak na sana KIMERALD nalang!!! (all I can say is – all of you are SHITssss! please wala namang bastusan ng literatura!!!)

IF YOU GUYS MAKE A FILIPINO TWILIGHT, I WILL BE SOO PISSED!!!!
thats just really stupid.
there’s already a twilight movie so would you make another one?!
rayver cruz doesnt have half the talent or looks as robert pattinson (aka edward cullen) and how would you guys do it. you gotta make it really good. and OMG!!!! whats witht he characters?! dude, if you guys make it, i doubt people will be protesting out your doors saying DO NOT MAKE TWILIGHT? and did stephanie meyer (the author of twilight) allowed you to make it ?!
NO.
AND ONE MORE THING.
i am also filipino and live in australia.
sana, hindi kayo mag gawa yan.
NO OFFENSE GUYS I HAVE TFC AND HOW ARE YOU GONNA MAKE THE THINGS LOOK REAL?
YOU GUYS COULDNT. i’ll give you an example . in dyosa, your graphics look NOTHING real at all. you guys hav got to think of your ideas, not to copy others. and your actors gotta be the best. and how would gabby be CARLISLE?! HE HAS BLOND HAIR !!! and bella?! SHE HAS TO LOOK INNOCENT. SHE DOESNT WEAR MAKEUP!!!!!!!!.
AND I HAVE MORE REASONS but to sum it all up , this is my point.
IF YOU DO TWILIGHT IN FILIPINO , I SWEAR, I WILL NEVER WATCH TFC AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEVERRRR!!!!!!
p.s you really need to get better actors than that.
im sorry if this is really harsh, but it is true.
this is how much i am so angry!!!.
byeee.
marunong naman sana kayong gumalang……….
sa dami ng movie bakit twilight pa!!!!!
cguro naman matatalino kayo no para malaman na ang mga fans ng twilight ay NAGAGALIT SA GINAWA NYO!!!!!!!
well, hindi naman ako nagtataka na ginaya nila ung twilight kc ang mga kapamilya ay mga IMITATORS at WALANG ORIGINALITY!!!!!!!!!!
alam nyo sana di kapamilya name ng network nyo kundi KAPAMILYUCK!!!!!
o diba bagay
