As a gamer with a soft spot for nostalgia, hearing about the Twilight animated series Midnight Sun being greenlit by Netflix has me reminiscing about my teenage years spent devouring every bit of Twilight lore. Back then, I was more into leveling up my character in World of Warcraft than reading romance novels, but even I couldn’t resist the allure of Edward and Bella’s forbidden love.
The Twilight animated series Midnight Sun has been given a straight-to-series order from Netflix.
In April 2023, it emerged that Lionsgate Television was working on an animated Twilight series, and this was later confirmed by Michael Burns of Lionsgate in March 2024
According to Variety, Netflix is moving forward with the development of “Midnight Sun,” granting it a direct-to-series production order. However, an official release date hasn’t been announced as of now
What do we know about the Twilight animated series Midnight Sun?
In the year 2020, “Midnight Sun” was released as a novel. This book, authored by Stephenie Meyer (known for her other works in the series), provides a fresh perspective on the events from “Twilight”. Instead of Bella Swan’s viewpoint, it is told from Edward Cullen’s point of view
“In the beloved saga Twilight, Edward Cullen and Bella Swan’s romance unfolded, setting the stage for a timeless love story. However, until now, fans have primarily heard Bella’s perspective. That changes with the much-anticipated companion novel, Midnight Sun. This captivating narrative, seen through Edward’s eyes, takes on a more somber and mysterious tone. Encountering Bella is the most unsettling and compelling experience he has had in centuries as a vampire. As we delve deeper into his past and unravel the intricacies of his thoughts, we comprehend why this is the greatest challenge of his immortal existence. Edward wrestles with the question: should he follow his heart, knowing it could put Bella in peril? In Midnight Sun, Stephenie Meyer takes us back to a world that has enthralled millions of readers and presents an epic novel exploring the exquisite joys and tragic repercussions of eternal love.”
At this point, it’s undecided whether Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, or any other actors from the Twilight Saga films will take on their previous roles for Midnight Sun
As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share that Sinead Daly will be donning the dual hats of writer and executive producer on this exciting series. Joining her in the producer’s circle are Meyer, Meghan Hibbett, Wyck Godfrey, Marty Bowen, Erik Feig, and Samie Kim Falvey, each bringing their unique expertise to the table. I can hardly wait to see what they’ll create together!
