The trailer, as announced on Tuesday, was debuted on June 20th as part of character Edward Cullen's fictional 111th birthday, which fell on Wednesday, and as a way for fans around the world to celebrate, the theatrical trailer was released for the film, out November 16th itself in theatres worldwide.

Recently, Forbes named Stewart as the highest-paid actress in Hollywood this year, taking note of her salaries between May 2011 and May 2012. The star of "The Twilight Saga" made an estimated $34.5 million this past year, and not just from her turn as Bella Swan. The total tallies of Stewart's hefty payday came from her starring role in the recently-released film "Snow White and the Huntsman," also costarring Oscar-winner Charlize Theron and "The Avengers"' Chris Hemsworth. The action fantasy film, released by Universal Studios, has so far made an estimated $123.8 million since its June 1st release in theatres, noted BoxOfficeMojo.

For each installment of the two "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn" films, Stewart was paid $12.5 million, plus a share of the profits, noted Forbes, which was the same price her lead costars Pattinson and Taylor Lautner received. From the extra money she made from "Snow White and the Huntsman," Stewart was able to easily outperform her former "Twilight" costars. At the age of 22, Stewart was also noted to be the youngest actress on Forbes' highest-paying actresses in 16 years.
