Breaking Dawn, Part 2 to not have Summer 2012 release date

After we learned that Breaking Dawn would be split in two parts, with Part 1 hitting theaters in November, many speculated that Part 2 would be released in Summer 2012.

However, today MTV quotes Summit distribution chief Richie Fay who told them that they are not set on Summer 2012 just yet:
“We’ve targeted a number of dates, and we have yet to determine when it will happen,” Fay said. “We haven’t even determined that it will be the summer. It’s still the source of discussions.”
MTV then goes into some analysis about this bit of info:
Of course, studios always explore various release dates for pictures, especially established blockbusters, and the fact that Summit hasn’t committed the second “Breaking Dawn” to the summer season shouldn’t be mistaken for confusion or indecision within studio headquarters.
But the 2012 summer movie calendar is rapidly filling up, not necessarily with films that widely share an audience with “Breaking Dawn,” but with established franchises or properties in their own right. That May will offer “The Avengers,” “Madagascar 3″ and “Men in Black 3,” while June delivers a “Star Trek” sequel. The rebooted “Spider-Man” has already nabbed the July 4th slot (occupied this year by “Eclipse”), followed closely by another “Ice Age” and a third “Batman.”
