Twilight Saga: Eclipse rocks at the box office

London, (ANI): The Twilight Saga: Eclipse featuring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart amassed more than 30 million US dollars from midnight screenings on Wednesday.

According to distributor Summit Entertainment, the record goes beyond its earlier feat of 26.3 million US dollars set by its predecessor, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, reports The Mirror.

The new midnight record is even more impressive considering Eclipse managed it in the middle of the week. And more is expected with the Fourth of July weekend ahead, when Eclipse is positioned for a colossal first five days.
