What do we know about Netflix's "Twilight" series?

On September 4, an interesting announcement appeared on the portal X. Netflix published a post that certainly intrigued many fans of the "Twilight" saga. The streaming giant officially announced that an animated series based on the books by the American author will be made.

"Midnight Sun, an animated series adaptation of Stephenie Meyer's novel and the retelling of Twilight from Edward Cullen's perspective, is officially in development" - reads the announcement.

Can't internet users wait for the "Twilight" series?

The Netflix post generated a wealth of varied comments. Some are thrilled by the idea of an animated series, while others believe it will be a disaster. "Ugh. Why does it have to be animated?"; "I think 'Twilight' works much better as an anime/animation, so this will be fire. Live action just seems downright awkward for this type of story, honestly."; "Suddenly, I'm back in high school"; "This is the best news I've ever heard in my life" - write internet users.
