A new animated Twilight series on Netflix will offer a darker take on the popular vampire saga, drawing from the 2020 novel Midnight Sun, which retells the story from Edward Cullen's perspective.
Twilight is coming back to life with an animated TV show on Netflix but based on another book in the saga, and thanks to one reveal in it, the show can be a lot darker and better. Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight book series was a huge pop culture phenomenon in the 2000s, and its massive popularity led to its film adaptation.

Revisiting Edward and Bella’s first meeting and more from the former’s perspective answered some questions left by the Twilight books, such as Edward always knowing Bella would become a vampire thanks to Alice’s visions, where Edward went when he left Forks, and what he did while staying with Bella while she slept. Midnight Sun shows Edward was right in calling himself a'bad guy.' Midnight Sun also made some dark reveals about Edward and his thoughts and feelings when he met Bella, which made his “bad guy” claims throughout Twilight tru
