UNITED STATES: Rejoice, Twilight fans! Lionsgate Television is in the early stages of developing a Twilight series based on Stephenie Meyer’s book series, which is hugely popular around the world.
As per reports, the TV adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s best-selling book Twilight will get a Television release. However, Lionsgate plans are yet to be made before selling the rights to an established TV network.
If reports are to be believed, the writers of ‘Tell Me Lies’ and ‘The Walking Dead: World Beyond’ have been onboarded to write a script for the series. Sinead Daly is working with Lionsgate to finalize whether the “TV show should get a remake of the books or whether it should go in an entirely different direction.”
The storyline of Twilight has remained one of the most successful film franchises of all time, continuing to excite people of different generations. The film series has five instalments in the franchise, which include Twilight (2008), New Moon (2009), Eclipse (2010), Breaking Dawn Part 1 (2011) and Breaking Dawn Part 2 (2012).
The fantasy series led people to experience a whole new world. Most importantly, the cast of the series featuring Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner is cherished for their roles to date.
Kristen also stated that she is surprised by the success of the ‘Twilight‘ films. The young and beautiful actress received global stardom as Bella Swan in the franchise.
The overnight fame came as a perk to her hard work, and Kristen admitted that she never expected the first film to be so successful the way it did.
Moreover, the Twilight star said on a podcast, “I’m always trying to remind folks that [the original ‘Twilight’ film was formally an indie] without disparaging it or saying, ‘it was nothing!’ We simply didn’t know. And it seemed like an offbeat, slightly marginal teen film. I didn’t expect everyone would accept that. I had no idea we were going to do a sequel.”
