Following the hugely successful movie franchise, Stephenie Meyer’s top-selling Twilight book series is now getting the series treatment.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sinead Daly (“The Walking Dead : World Beyond”) is attached to write the script for the Twilight series, which is in early development via Lionsgate Television.
Sinead and Lionsgate are discussing whether or not to do a complete remake of Meyer’s books or a different offshoot.

The series, which will be shopped around to different networks at some stage, will be produced by Wyck Godfrey and former Lionsgate Motion Picture Group co-president Erik Feig.

The timing of the Twilight series comes as Max recently confirmed that it was in early development of a Harry Potter television adaptation.
