Everything We Know About the Netflix ‘Twilight’ Animated Series
About this episode
Netflix is currently developing an animated series titled Midnight Sun, which adapts Stephenie Meyer's companion novel to the Twilight saga. This project retells the events of the first book through the perspective of Edward Cullen, providing a deeper look into his internal struggles and family history. Key creative figures like Stephenie Meyer and showrunner Sinead Daly are leading the production, which shifted into active status by mid-2026. The series aims to leverage the benefits of animation to depict supernatural elements that were difficult to achieve in live-action. While voice casting has begun with a focus on authentic Indigenous representation for the Quileute characters, a public release is not expected until at least late 2027.
