The first image from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn has landed online.  Featuring stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart engaging in some sort of activity only suitable for of-age, consenting vampires, this first image (taken from an upcoming issue of Entertainment Weekly) confirms what those who've read the book already know - that, although it will be the former, Breaking Dawn will most likely tread along the thin line that exists between a PG-13 and an R rating.

To check out the full image, hit the jump.  In addition to Pattinson and Stewart, Breaking Dawn will also return stars Taylor Lautner, Anna Kendrick, Ashley Greene, Michael Sheen, and Dakota Fanning.  The film, directed by Bill Condon (Gods and Monsters), hits theaters later this year on November 18th.

Here's the synopsis for Stephanie Meyer's book:

When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved?

To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, a tumultuous year of temptation, loss, and strife have led her to the ultimate turning point. Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or to pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the fates of two tribes hangs.

Now that Bella has made her decision, a startling chain of unprecedented events is about to unfold with potentially devastating, and unfathomable, consequences. Just when the frayed strands of Bella’s life–first discovered in Twilight, then scattered and torn in New Moon and Eclipse–seem ready to heal and knit together, could they be destroyed… forever?

The astonishing, breathlessly anticipated conclusion to the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic that has entranced millions. [Amazon]
