"Midnight Sun,” the new animated “Twilight” series based on Stephenie Meyer’s novel of the same name, has landed at Netflix.
The streamer has granted a straight-to-series order for the animated show, which has officially begun development, Netflix announced Wednesday. The project, which hails from Lionsgate Television, is described as a “retelling of ‘Twilight’ from the perspective of Edward Cullen.”
The news comes months after Lionsgate vice chairman Michael Burns confirmed the company would be shopping around the series during a Morgan Stanley media conference in March, saying, “I think there’ll be a lot of interest in that.”
The series was first reported to be in development at Lionsgate TV in April 2023, with Meyer’s involvement expected.
Meyer will executive produce alongside Meghan Hibbett for Fickle Fish Films, while additional EPs include Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen for Temple Hill Entertainment and Erik Feig and Samie Kim Falvey for Picturestart.

Released back in 2020, Stephenie Meyer’s novel Midnight Sun retold the story of Twilight from Edward Cullen’s perspective, and a Netflix animated series adaptation is in the works.
The project has been given a straight-to-series order at Netflix, Variety reports.
Sinead Daly (“Raised by Wolves”) will serve as writer and executive producer on the series.
Stephenie Meyer is also on board as an executive producer.
In the 2020 novel Midnight Sun, “Stephenie Meyer makes a triumphant return to the world of Twilight with the iconic love story of Bella and Edward told from the vampire’s point of view.”
Here’s the full official synopsis for the novel…
“When Edward Cullen and Bella Swan met in Twilight, an iconic love story was born. But until now, fans have heard only Bella’s side of the story. At last, readers can experience Edward’s version in the long-awaited companion novel, Midnight Sun.

‘Twilight’ Animated Series Gets Netflix Order; Sinead Daly Adapting Stephenie Meyer’s ‘Midnight Sun’

Netflix has given a straight-to-series order to a Twilight animated series based on Stephenie Meyer’s 2020 novel Midnight Sun. The project, which has entered development at the global streamer, comes from Lionsgate Television, whose movie studio sibling released The Twilight Saga.
Sinead Daly (Tell Me Lies) is writing and executive producing the adaptation of the Twilight companion novel, a retelling of Twilight from the perspective of Edward Cullen. Robert Pattinson’s performance as Edward in the 2008 film Twilight was informed by Midnight Sun as Meyer shared her then-unfinished manuscript with the actor.
Meyer, creator of the best-selling Twilight book series that spawned Lionsgate’s multibillion-dollar film franchise, is executive producing the animated series alongside Meghan Hibbett for Fickle Fish Films. Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen exec produce for Temple Hill Entertainment, Erik Feig and Samie Kim Falvey for Picturestart. Emily Wissink is overseeing for Picturestart. Temple Hill was a producer...

In today's era of streaming, it feels like no show is truly safe. Just this week we got the news that Disney+ had canceled its Star Wars show The Acolyte barely a month after it finished airing; before that, Prime Video took the axe to its popular fantasy romance series My Lady Jane.
But for me, looking back on the many casualties of the streaming wars, few losses sting more than Raised By Wolves. Created by Aaron Guzikowski and produced by Ridley Scott, Raised By Wolves was a daring, weird science fiction series about a pair of androids named Mother (Amanda Collin) and Father (Abubakar Salim) who undertook a dangerous mission to restart humanity on the distant planet of Kepler-22b after the Earth was all but destroyed. It quickly carved out a passionate fanbase, tapping into the sort of shocking sci-fi horror vibes that Scott was known for from movies like Alien and Prometheus.

Peacock has given a straight-to-series order to the female-led crime thriller “M.I.A.,” Variety has learned.
The series, which is set in South Florida, hails from writer Bill Dubuque, who previously co-created the Emmy-winning Netflix series “Ozark.” The official logline for the series states:
“Running drugs is a family affair for Etta Tiger Jonze, but when her family is slaughtered before her eyes, Etta sets out to exact justice on those responsible – avenging her blood family while she builds her chosen family, igniting her series journey from powerless orphan to South Florida’s most powerful criminal Queenpin.”
Karen Campbell will serve as executive producer and showrunner on “M.I.A.” Stefano Sollima will direct and executive produce. MRC will produce.
"Ozark” ran for four seasons on Netflix and followed a family involved in laundering money for a drug cartel. The series received 45 Emmy nominations during that time with four wins. Dubuque’s other...

The second season of House of the Dragon is over and we likely won't see season 3 until sometime in 2026. But we will get to revisit Westeros before that. Next year, HBO will debut a new Game of Thrones prequel series called A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, based on the Tales of Dunk and Egg novellas by George R.R. Martin.
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is an altogether smaller story than we saw in either Game of Thrones oder House of the Dragon. There's no massive war afoot; there's just a very tall knight named Ser Duncan the Tall and his diminuitive squire Egg, who wander the Seven Kingdoms having adventures. The first season will be based on Martin's story "The Hedge Knight," which begins with Dunk entering himself into a tournament in Ashford Meadow in the Reach. There he'll meet a variety of characters, including a member of...

Riz Ahmed’s Amazon Prime Video comedy series has added three new series regulars, Variety has learned exclusively.
Sheeba Chaddha, Aasiya Shah, and Sajid Hasan have all joined the untitled half-hour show alongside series lead Ahmed and recently announced cast member Guz Khan.
Exact character details are being kept under wraps, but the official series description states the show follows “Shah Latif (Ahmed), a struggling actor on the cusp of landing the role of a lifetime, only to find himself thrust into a full blown existential crisis and trippy conspiracy thriller all at the same time.”
Chaddha is a highly-accomplished actress who has worked in film, television, and the stage. Her past television credits include the hit series “Mirzapur” as well as “Bandish Bandits,” “Taj Mahal 1989,” “Tanhaiyan,” and the German Netflix series “The Signal.” Her film credits include her award-winning turn in “Badhaai Do” as well as “Doctor G,...

[This story contains spoilers from House of the Dragon season two, episode seven, “The Red Sowing.”]
The latest episode of House of the Dragon was a huge win for Team Black, if only in the short term, as Queen Rhaenyra’s (Emma D’Arcy) plan to recruit new dragon riders came to fruition. While several men and women were killed horribly in dragon fire, a few others emerged from the trials with new dragons to call their own. What’s a few dozen casualties when three new fire-powered soldiers are officially on the board?
But not every character with Valyrian blood managed to snag a dragon, or even attempt to snag one. Conspicuously absent from the dragon-snatching party: Alyn of Hull, the Seasnake’s bastard son who is emerging as a leader in Team Black’s seafaring side of the war against the Greens. While his brother Addam (Clinton Liberty) was the first of the new riders (called Dragonseeds) to emerge,...

Brendan Quinn, whose role in Netflix’s “One Day” landed him a best supporting nod at the National Film Awards UK, has joined the ensemble cast of “Scene House,” a dark comedy penned and directed by Annabella Fazio.
Quinn stars alongside Netflix alum Safiyya Ingar (“The Witcher”), Nell Williams (“Blinded by the Light”), Denzel Baidoo (“Last Swim”), Selina Jones (“Raised by Wolves”), Aaron Teoh (“Wicked”) and Ivy Freeman-Attwood (“Two Neighbors”).
Looking at societal obsession with celebrity culture, the short film is set in a dystopian future where actors inhabit an enclosed area called The Scene House – an unsettling hybrid of a theme park and museum. Here, observers pay to enter and, for an additional cost, interact with the actors. One of these Actors, played by Jones, begins to question their existence in The Scene House as the boundaries blur between performance and reality.

While the dramatic movements of projects at Warner Bros. seemed to have calmed down and despite some big decisions being made on gambles like Kevin Costner’s Horizon series, the studio is still working on some re-arrangement of their properties. It was reported earlier that upcoming series that were meant to be exclusive to the Max streaming app are now becoming HBO originals. Previously, all shows that were based on Warner Bros. IP fell under the Max umbrella, which felt like the most obvious way to separate the label from HBO. “We felt like we had to delineate between an HBO show and a Max show,” HBO and Max content CEO Casey Bloys said. “The idea of using Warner Bros. IP as a delineation for Max felt right. At least that gives you a clear lane. But as we started producing those shows, we were using the same methods, the same kind of thinking,...

"Are you hunting this thing?!" Brainstorm Media has revealed an official trailer for an indie horror movie called Consumed, the latest from the genre filmmaker Mitchell Altieri. It's set for a direct-to-vod release in August later this summer if anyone's curious. This horror is the new creature feature from The Butcher Brothers – also known as director / producer Mitchell Altieri and producer Phil Flores – and it stars Courtney Halverson, Mark Famiglietti, and Devon Sawa. Consumed is a horror thriller that follows a married couple out camping who encounter something horrifying. Trapped between a madman (played by Sawa) seeking revenge and a skin-stealing monster, a married couple must find the strength to fight and make it out of the woods alive. There's a nice cosmic sci-fi horror tinge to this trailer, with a creepy tease of the gross as monster that's in it. // Continue Reading ›...

Netflix’s runaway hit series One Piece sets sail for the anticipated season 2. The manga adaptation became such a success that Halloween star Jamie Lee Curtis, who is a vet of the film industry, has been lobbying for a role in the next season as the character Doctor Kureha. Curtis, who recently started production on Freaky Friday 2, had taken to her social media with photoshopped images of her in the role, which even got the attention of the show’s official accounts.
While fans wait for that announcement, Variety has reported on the casting of several villains in the upcoming season. Daniel Lasker, known from Raised by Wolves, has been cast to play Mr. 9, Batwoman’s Camrus Johnson will be added to season 2 as Mr. 5, Jazzara Jaslyn, who can be seen in Warrior, will be playing Miss Valentine and Late Night With the Devil star David Dastmalchian will be portraying the role of Mr.

As studio and network executives rack their heads around what the under 25 demographic craves, multihyphenate creator and actor Alan Chikin Chow, who is behind the YouTube hit series Alan’s Universe, and his cast of Chelsea Sik, Michelle Park and Haven Everly have already figured it out.
As streaming services cannibalize their viewership and cinema ticket sales wane, this foursome have a gravitational pull across mobile phones with the teen comedy series Alan’s Universe which is a cross between Charlie Chaplin, Korean soaps and Riverdale. Chow plays the protag, an earnest guy with a huge heart, and lots of love to share with his fellow female classmates, but alas, teenagedom, mean girls (Chow even had a cameo in the recent Paramount feature reboot), and bullies get in the way.

Erin Kellyman, who appeared in Solo and The Green Knight, is the latest addition the cast of Danny Boyle’s 28 Years Later.
Filming has already begun on 28 Years Later, a belated sequel to director Danny Boyle’s own series of horror films which began with 28 Days Later in 2002. And, as cameras roll, it’s reported that British actor Erin Kellyman has joined the cast, which already includes Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor Johnson, Ralph Fiennes and Jack O’Connell.
It’s currently unknown what role Kellyman will play – but then again, there hasn’t been so much as a logline released for the film as yet. All we currently know is that the screenplay has been co-written by Boyle and Alex Garland (who wrote 28 Days Later) and that Cillian Murphy is set to reprise his role as bicycle courier and viral apocalypse survivor, Jim, last seen in the 2002 original.

One of the most critically acclaimed shows on Max (formerly HBO Max) is coming to an end, with it revealed today that Tokyo Vice’s second season will be its last. The show starred Ansel Elgort as American journalist Jake Adelstein, upon whose memoir the show was based. In it, Adelstein, a crime reporter, relocates to Tokyo and becomes embroiled in the world of the Japanese Yakuza. Ken Watanabe played his mentor, a detective investigating organized crime in the city, while Rachel Keller, Sho Kasamatsu and Rinko Kikuchi co-starred.
The pilot episode for the show was famously directed by the great Michael Mann, who also served as one of the show’s executive producers. It was originally commissioned at a time when Warner-Discovery was hoping to make HBO Max a hub for high-end series, only for many of their shows, including Raised by Wolves, The Flight Attendant, and now Tokyo Vice...

The sci-fi genre has always been one of the most beloved among cinephiles as it gives us a new look at a particular technology or our world. There was a time when Max (formerly known as HBO Max) was the place for peak sci-fi shows but after taking off Westworld and Raised by Wolves from the service, and since then it has been lacking a bit regarding sci-fi shows. But still, we picked the seven best sci-fi shows that we could find on Max.

Once known as Dune: The Sisterhood, the Max streaming series Dune: Prophecy, which serves as a prequel to the Dune feature films directed by Denis Villeneuve, started filming in November of 2022, then underwent quite a shake-up in 2023 when the director of the first two episodes, Johan Renck (who executive produced and directed all five episodes of the HBO limited series Chernobyl) decided to leave the project over creative issues, then Shirley Henderson (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) – who had been cast as one of the show’s lead characters – followed him out the door. Everything has been worked out since then, with Dune: Prophecy on track for a fall 2024 premiere. To start building the hype, Max just unveiled a teaser trailer for the show, and you can check it out in the embed above!

The founders of FameBit (which Google acquired and later turned into YouTube BrandConnect) have launched a new app that pairs writers and animators together to create what it calls a “read-watch” experience in storytelling.
Storiaverse, which launched earlier this month, taps writers to submit their works, then matches accepted stories with artists who animate sections of those stories. The end result, with writing and animation combined, lets Storiaverse users swipe up on a story to watch animated clips as they’re reading.
Agnes Kozera, one of the aforementioned FameBit co-founders and now co-founder and chief content officer of Storiaverse, said in a statement that the platform was inspired by “the popularity of graphic novels and shows like Love, Death & Robots,” which “demonstrate the changing creative landscape and increasing demand for animation among digital natives in adulthood.”

She characterized him as “A prodigiously talented actor, he had just returned from Sydney, where he had been appearing in the Lehman Trilogy and was looking forward to continuing the international tour in San Francisco.” Evans added that “Adrian enjoyed a varied and successful career across all media. Our deepest condolences go to his family, who ask for privacy at this most difficult of times.”

Back when it was all fields around here, TV show titles were in abundance. In the days when television used to be hand-stretched and sun-dried and made at a gentlemanly pace by artisanal methods, there were titles galore. Worzel Gummidge. Starsky and Hutch. Last of the Summer Wine. Distinct and descriptive titles milled around drinking holes, and all writers had to do was toss in a lasso and drag out a Sapphire & Steel or a Knight Rider.
But thanks to streaming, nowadays TV is made in windowless factories and injected with antibiotics and e-numbers. There can never be enough. Every streamer requires a chunky flow of television shows they can release all on the same day, not tell anybody about, and quickly delete for tax purposes before anybody watches them. And the first casualty? The titles.
The problem is, the glut has dried up the supply. Abstract nouns. Character names.

Plot: In 18th century Denmark, Captain Ludvig Kahlen – a proud, ambitious, but impoverished war hero — sets out to tame a vast, uninhabitable land on which seemingly nothing can grow. He seeks to start farming crops, build a colony in the name of the King, and gain a noble title for himself. This beautiful but forbidding area also happens to be under the rule of the merciless Frederik De Schinkel, a preening nobleman who realizes the threat Kahlen represents to his power.

While I’m pretty sure that only parents can properly fathom the indescribable horror of discovering that your child is missing, I think anyone can relate to the desperation of losing a loved one. That’s why it makes sense that this premise has been used as a jumping off point for all sorts of revenge narratives since time immemorial, with badass protagonists often doing whatever it takes to either recover or avenge missing family members.
However, there is one film that explores a much less glamorous side of these cinematic vendettas, and that would be Denis Villeneuve’s 2013 thriller Prisoners, a modern classic that explores just how far a desperate man might go when he’s convinced that his terrible actions are completely justified.

Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke has some thoughts on who would be cast as the main characters if the film were to be rebooted today.
During an appearance on the Happy Sad Confused podcast to discuss the film 15 years after it originally came out, the filmmaker chimed in on who she’d want to play Edward Cullen and Bella Swan in a film today.
When asked if Jacob Elordi and Jenna Ortega would portray the two main characters, Hardwicke admitted, “Oh, that would be perfect,” she said, adding of Elordi, “I mean, he’s amazing. He probably would be Edward today.”
She explained that so many people come to mind when she thinks about who could be cast in the roles in the present day. Model Lewis Tan approached her recently and told her he went out for the role of Jacob Black, which eventually went to Taylor Lautner.

The Max series Dune: The Sisterhood (which is a prequel to the Dune feature films directed by Denis Villeneuve) started filming last November, then underwent quite a shake-up earlier this year when the director of the first two episodes, Johan Renck (who executive produced and directed all five episodes of the HBO limited series Chernobyl) decided to leave the project over creative issues, then Shirley Henderson (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire) – who had been cast as one of the show’s lead characters – followed him out the door. Now IGN reports that Dune: The Sisterhood has gone through another change, but this one much less drastic than having to start over with a different director and star. This one is simply a title change. Dune: The Sisterhood is now going by the title Dune: Prophecy. IGN also reports that the show is expected to start streaming in the...

Series creator J Blakeson enjoys heist films but wanted to do something different with the subgenre. The trailer for Hulu’s Culprits shows that he did just that, setting the story years after a heist when the robbers have put their former criminal ways behind them and have established new lives.
“Heists have been done so many times, the great thing about this is that you can sort of play in that sandbox with the tropes and the expectations and the iconography of the heist, but actually tell a story, which is much more about these people who are dealing with this bad thing they’ve done and the consequences of their actions and trying to escape who they were and are trying to become a person who they’d like to be,” said Blakeson in an interview with Variety.
