Summit Entertainment has agreed to terms with director Bill Condon to finish the "Twilight" series.

Condon will direct "Breaking Dawn," the final book in author Stephenie Meyer's four-book vampire series.

According to Variety, Summit has not yet announced if "Breaking Dawn" will be broken into two films although it's widely expected to do so.

Catherine Hardwicke directed the first film, while Chris Weitz directed the second, "New Moon." David Slade directed the third, the upcoming "Eclipse," which opens June 30.

Melissa Rosenberg, who has adapted each film, is currently working on the fourth film.

Stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner will return with Wyck Godfrey, Karen Rosenfelt and Stephenie Meyer producing.

Condon's credits include writing and directing "Dreamgirls," "Kinsey" and "Gods and Monsters." He also wrote the screenplay for "Chicago."
