dafter Harry Potter, Hollywood decided to turn into series another epochal saga: Twilight. At the moment it is only an indiscretion, but it is still a news that has already rekindled the enthusiasm of fans of Bella and Edward, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson and the books (4) from which 5 films have been made since 2008.
Twilight becomes a series
To drop the bomb is The Hollywood Reporter. Lionsgate Television would be working to develop a TV series from Stephenie Meyer’s books with Sinead Daly already enlisted in the adaptation. The figures of the saga, moreover, would push anyone to try to revive the myth of this story: 160 million copies And 3 billion 400 million dollars (for films) in the world.
Sinead Daly he would be at work figuring out what cut to give to the projects, i.e. whether to trace the books or give a different imprinting. Regarding the broadcast, nothing is known yet. In fact, no broadcaster or streaming platform would be in contention and the relative timing is not known. There is, therefore, no release date. Second thr And variety author Stephenie Meyer is also expected to be involved in the project.
The risks of a reboot without Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson
Lionsgate has not released any comments. However, in 2017, five years after the release of the last film The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2, CEO John Feltheimer declared that: «There are still many stories that deserve to be told, and we will do it as soon as our writers are ready». A prophetic statement?

Looking forward to knowing reboot detailsa consideration arises spontaneously. The Twilight saga it marked an era, but more than ten years have passed since then. It is plausible to imagine that production will make use of a completely renewed cast and that, therefore, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson will not be part of it.
The merit of the success of the films is, yes, of the story itself – a more unique than rare editorial case -, but also of thealchemy between the two actors. With new faces and, perhaps, a new storyline will it be a guaranteed success?
