Good news Twihards, Stephanie Meyer and Lions Gate announced that the "Twilight Saga" isn't over just yet. According to The New York Times, the love story of Bella and Edward will be revived via short films exclusively on Facebook.
Meyer and Lions Gate have recruited a group of female Hollywood stars to select five aspiring female directors to oversee the short films. According to The New York Times, the panel includes Kristen Stewart (who played Bella in the "Twilight" series); Meyers; actress Kate Winslet; Octavia Spencer; Julie Bowen; "Twilight" director Catherine Hardwicke; producer Cathy Schulman; and "Frozen" co-director Jennifer Lee.
"The female voice is something that has become more and more important to me as I've worked in the film industry," Meyers said in a statement to E! News.
The series of short films will be called "The Storytellers - New Creative Voices of The Twilight Saga" and won't feature any of the original cast members. The New York Times also reports that the project has received the support of Women in Film, an organization that strives to add more female directors in Hollywood.
"We think Facebook is a great way for us to introduce the world of 'Twilight' to a whole new audience while re-energizing existing fans," said Michael Burns, Lions Gate's vice chairman. "This is just the beginning - a template, if you will. You can probably guess what might be coming next."
Burns didn't elaborate on what he was hinting at but said, "We love Stephanie Meyer."
