Midnight Sun, a Twilight novel by Stephanie Meyer, is heading to the small screen at Netflix – in animated series form.
There was a time in the early 2010s when Twilight was just about the biggest film franchise around.
It comprises five films – 2008’s Twilight, directed by Catherine Hardwicke, 2009’s New Moon, directed by Chris Weitz, 2010’s Eclipse, directed by David Slade, and the two part finale Breaking Dawn, directed by Bill Condon and released in 2011 and 2012. Their success was such that two parody films were also released in quick succession, the much maligned Vampire’s Suck and Breaking Wind.
The films followed Kristen Stewart’s Bella Swan as she becomes romantically involved with vampire Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson, and werewolf Jacob Black, played by Taylor Lautner. Which all leads to a battle with vampire coven The Volturi.
Adapted by future Jessica Jones creator Melissa Rosenberg, the large ensemble cast also included Billy Burke,...

Twilight is getting a second (after)life in the form of an animated series at Netflix.
The streamer has given a straight-to-series order and begun development on a show based on Midnight Sun, author Stephenie Meyer’s companion novel to her mega-selling Twilight series. The book is a retelling of the events of Twilight from vampire Edward Cullen’s point of view; the main series is told from the perspective of Bella Swan, the human object of Edward’s fascination.
Lionsgate Television, which began early development on a Twilight TV project last year, will produce the series. Lionsgate’s film division released the four Twilight movies.
Sinead Daly (Hulu’s Tell Me Lies, Max’s Raised by Wolves), who has been attached to the project from the outset, will adapt the novel and executive produce along with the Meyer and Meghan Hibbett of Fickle Fish Films, Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen...

Stephenie Meyer’s blockbuster Twilight franchise is heading to the small screen, and here are the details.
There was a time in the early 2010s when Twilight was just about the biggest film franchise around.
It comprises five films – 2008’s Twilight, directed by Catherine Hardwicke, 2009’s New Moon, directed by Chris Weitz, 2010’s Eclipse, directed by David Slade, and the two part finale Breaking Dawn, directed by Bill Condon and released in 2011 and 2012. Their success was such that two parody films were also released in quick succession, the much maligned Vampire’s Suck and Breaking Wind.
The films followed Kristen Stewart’s Bella Swan as she becomes romantically involved with vampire Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson, and werewolf Jacob Black, played by Taylor Lautner. Which all leads to a battle with vampire coven The Volturi.
Adapted by future Jessica Jones creator Melissa Rosenberg, the large ensemble cast also included Billy Burke,...

Going into FBI: Most Wanted Season 5, the team will get an assist from original FBI star Shantel VanSanten.

VanSanten joined FBI in 2022 in a recurring role during Missy Peregrym’s maternity leave.
But Nina struck a chord with viewers and continued to appear on the show. Her relationship with Stuart Scola became a central storyline.
Nina gave birth to their child at the end of FBI Season 5.

Kellan Lutz found it "intense" having an on-screen daughter that looked a lot like his real daughter.The 'Twilight' star plays former marine-turned-attorney Max in the thriller 'Due Justice', who hunts down the gang who killed his wife and brother and took his daughter, and he had even more "gut-wrenching emotion" to draw from.He explained to Us Weekly magazine: "I have a daughter who looks just like my daughter in the movie. "It's more intense because you have real memories to draw from and gut-wrenching emotion to play with." The 38-year-old actor - who shot to fame playing Emmett Cullen in the teen vampire saga alongside Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart - feels like 'Due Justice' is his 'Taken'.He said: "I love Liam Neeson, and I felt like when I read the script, it was my Taken. I love watching revenge stories and playing this hooded character.

Due Justice is the latest film in the never-ending line of Taken wannabes where a former badass has to go back into action to rescue their kidnapped daughter. In this case, it’s Max an attorney who, along with his boss Claire are lawyers celebrating winning their latest case when Max hears a familiar voice from across the restaurant.
It’s his brother Jerry who isn’t happy to see him, probably due to the company he’s dining with. As it turns out, Jerry was undercover for the FBI and that meeting triggered the suspicion of Ellis, Roxy and their crew.

Shantel VanSanten has had many memorable roles throughout her impressive career on the small screen.
After breaking through as Quinn James on One Tree Hill in 2009, she's gone on to play Patty Spivot on The Flash, Julie Swagger on Shooter, and, more importantly, Karen Baldwin on For All Mankind.
In 2022, she joined the cast of FBI in the recurring role of Nina Chase, who blossomed into one of the best characters on the show.
Nina was a recurring player during Missy Peregrym's absence and didn't get much to do after the former's return.
Thankfully, the creatives at the wheel of the FBI franchise have come up with the inspired decision of shipping VanSanten over to FBI: Most Wanted.
It's an exciting time because there are many possibilities about how this will play out, so let's dive in.

"You tell me where my money is, and I'll return your daughter to you" Saban Films has revealed an official trailer for an action thriller titled Due Justice, both written and directed by filmmaker Javier Reyna. Yet another of these junk action films getting dumped out on VOD, way too many of them this year. If that title wasn't a hint already, this is obviously about a guy getting "due justice" by going for revenge and going after the people who harmed him. Of course. A very American story. An attorney with a military past hunts down the gang who killed his wife and brother and took his daughter. Filled with shady characters and the Feds and all the usuals. Due Justice stars Kellan Lutz, Jeff Fahey, & Efren Ramirez, with Cynthia Geary, Manu Intiraymi, Chelsea Lopez, and David Jofre. Yeah this movie looks as uninteresting as it sounds. // Continue Reading...

With the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes well underway, it's surprising that casting news is trickling out for broadcast TV dramas.
Unfortunately, the news we're about to share will not come as good news for fans of FBI: Most Wanted.
Per Deadline, Alexa Davalos is no longer part of the CBS procedural's expansive cast.
Per the outlet, the actress was "informed by a producer on set that she won't be coming back after filming her last scene from Season 4 several months ago."
The decision means there will be no on-screen farewell for Kristin Gaines.
As a result, FBI: Most Wanted Season 5 Episode 1 will likely explain Kristin's departure.
Unfortunately, at the end of FBI: Most Wanted Season 4, there was no indication that Kristin was plotting her departure from the team.
It's sad for the fans who were invested in her arc because it means the resolution probably won't land as well as it should.

Series regular Alexa Davalos will not be returning for Season 5 of CBS’ “FBI: Most Wanted,” Variety has confirmed.
Hailing from Dick Wolf, “FBI: Most Wanted” focuses on the Fugitive Task Force, an elite unit that relentlessly pursues and captures the notorious criminals on the Bureau’s Most Wanted list. David Hudgins and Todd Arnow executive produce.
Davalos joined the series at the beginning of Season 3, playing the role of Kristin Gaines, a member of the FBI’s Fugitive Task Force and a former Naval Intelligence Officer. Her character’s exit joins the short list of cast shakeups that have taken place on the Wolf Entertainment show. Davalos’ character originally joined the team after Kellan Lutz, another series regular, exited the series. Lutz played Kenny Crosby, who was written off the show in the Season 3 premiere. In addition to Lutz, former team leader Jess Lacroix (Julian McMahon), also departed the series...

Exclusive: With two Hollywood strikes, it’s unclear when CBS’ FBI: Most Wanted will return for a fifth season, but when it does, it will be without one of its series regulars, Alexa Davalos.
The news likely will come as a surprise to fans became there was no hint in the Season 4 finale that Davalos’ character, Special Agent Kristin Gaines, might be departing the series from Wolf Entertainment and Universal Television.
The exit may have come as a surprise to many on the show, too, including possibly Davalos. I hear she was informed by a producer on set that she won’t be coming back after filming her last scene from Season 4 several months ago. According to multiple sources, the conversation — and Davalos’ departure — were amicable.
