Lefevre claims she was dismissed over a 10-day overlap, but Summit Entertainment wrote a lengthy rebuttal claiming: “If Ms. Lefevre was, as she describes, ‘passionate’ about being part of the Twilight saga, we feel that she and her representatives would have included us in her decision to work on another film that would conflict with the shooting schedule of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.”

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart take note!
