Fans of the Twilight book series and film franchise have reason to get excited as a new TV project is reportedly in the works. Lionsgate Television is currently in the early stages of developing a Twilight TV series.
At this stage, the project is still in its infancy and does not have a network or writer attached. Lionsgate, which holds the rights to the franchise, plans to lead the development process before pitching the project to potential buyers.
While there is no timeline for when the Twilight series will be taken to market, sources say that Stephenie Meyer, the author of the Twilight books, is expected to be involved in the project.
The Twilight film franchise, starring Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner, grossed over $3 billion at the box office with five films released between 2008 and 2012. The series follows the story of Bella Swan, a high school student who falls in love with a vampire named Edward Cullen, and the challenges they face as they navigate their relationship in a world of werewolves and other supernatural creatures.
