Netflix Orders ‘Midnight Sun’ Animated Series: Can Cartoon Vampires Sparkle Better Than the Original?

Midnight Sun

Hold on to your glitter, folks! The Twilight saga is making a dazzling return to our screens with the brand-new animated series, “Midnight Sun,” coming soon to Netflix! That’s right—Edward Cullen is back, and this time, he’s getting the animated treatment. It’s been officially greenlit for a straight-to-series order, so get ready to sink your teeth into a fresh take on the sparkly vampire drama.

Originally teased in 2023 by Lionsgate, “Midnight Sun” promises to give us Edward’s side of the story, letting us dive deep into the brooding mind of everyone’s favorite vampire with a penchant for watching Bella sleep. With this new animated spin, we’re expecting even more of those intense, longing stares and, of course, a generous dose of sparkling.

Whether you’re Team Edward, Team Jacob, or Team “Seriously, How Much Rain Can One Town Handle?,” we’re all hoping this series will be a better love story than Twilight itself. Because, if animated characters can’t pull off a vampire-human love triangle with more sparkle and drama than ever before, what hope do the rest of us mere mortals have? So grab your popcorn and prepare for a glitter-filled ride through the world of Forks—this is one love story we’re curious to see animated!
