Twilight Star Robert Pattinson Signs TV Deal,” screams the headline of an article today from the Daily Star, which goes on to say, “Robert Pattinson will sink his fangs into one of the biggest contracts in Hollywood history with a $500 million Twilight television deal.”

Really?!

According to the article, the film “franchise is branching out into TV production – and bosses want heart-throb Rob to reprise his big-screen role as Edward Cullen.” The story claims he “could land as much as $1.5 million an episode in the deal which could kick in as early as next year.”

Seriously?!

Oh wait, there’s more…

Kristen Stewart, Rob’s on-screen human love Bella Swan, is also wanted by chiefs at Summit Entertainment,” reports the Daily Star, adding “both would be free to work on the TV version almost immediately as they have already completed the third film in the series, The ­Twilight Saga: Eclipse.”

But how about the other films they’re slated to do?

More importantly, how about the accuracy of this story?

A rep for Summit told Gossip Cop exclusively that there is “no truth” to Pattinson signing a TV deal with Summit.

    When I read this today I laughed so much. It looks like OK magazine have been shamed by gossip cop but are like a dog with a bone, so Star paper which belongs to the same publications group as OK mag have run with this. Oh well could have been worse and made my Sunday. Thanks GC.

    If Summit wants to keep the Twilight nonsense going, I wouldn’t be surprised if they turn it into a TV series in a few years but there is no way Robsten would star in it.

    I saw this earlier and didn’t think it was true that is why I came hear to find out the truth. Once again GC you didn’t disappoint. THANK YOU!!!! I’m a big Twilight fan and if this was true I would not have watched the series on TV. Enough is enough a TV series would be over kill. Not to mention if Rob want to be a movie star he has to stay away from TV.
