Robert Pattinson has confirmed that he has signed on for the fourth instalment in the Twilight saga.

The actor, who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the franchise, told The Hollywood Reporter that he had committed to starring in Breaking Dawn but was unsure when production would begin.

Summit Entertainment had previously played down reports that the movie had been given the green light, with screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg admitting that she was only in the "thinking" stage of scripting.

Twilight has grossed over $370 million worldwide since its release last year. Sequel New Moon is scheduled for release this November, with third instalment Eclipse arriving in cinemas in summer 2010.
