The next installment of the Twilight series has found its writers' room. The animated series Midnight Sun, based off of the 2020 novel from Stephenie Meyer, is currently in development at Netflix. The novel follows the same events from the original Twilight book, except from Edward Cullen's perspective:
This unforgettable tale as told through Edward's eyes takes on a new and decidedly dark twist. Meeting Bella is both the most unnerving and intriguing event he has experienced in all his years as a vampire. As we learn more fascinating details about Edward's past and the complexity of his inner thoughts, we understand why this is the defining struggle of his life. How can he justify following his heart if it means leading Bella into danger?
While there isn't an official cast for the series just yet, we are able to report some exciting names inside the Midnight Sun writers' room, according to the Writers Guild of America website. Check out the writers below:
Sinead Daly (showrunner, executive producer, co-executive producer for The Summer I Turned Pretty)
Liz Sczudlo (executive producer, co-executive producer for Dynasty)
Garrett Lerner (executive producer, executive producer for The Good Doctor)
Vanessa Rojas (co-executive producer, co-executive producer for The Summer I Turned Pretty)
Rebecca Roanhorse (executive story editor, executive story editor for Echo)
Stephenie Meyer will also serve as an executive producer on the series. Although there isn't much information about the series, Twilight fans are seemingly excited for it despite the novel being panned by critics. Stephenie Meyer has also revealed that she has plans for two more books in the series. It's possible that there are plans for additional animated adaptations down the line if Midnight Sun succeeds.
