A brand new form of Twilight is set to hit our screens in the coming months in a brand new project by Lionsgate.

The company are bringing back the Twilight franchise in the form of five short films. The films will be shown exclusively on Facebook in 2015.

Five female directors will be selected to make their own version of the hit series in a short film that will be set live online. Fans will then be given the opportunity to watch the short films and help to select a winner.

“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, Lionsgate’s vice chairman.

A group of female panellists including Kristen Stewart and Stephanie Myer will select the winning shorts and participants. Kate Winslet, Octavia Spencer, Julie Bowen and Jennifer Lee are believed to also have a role in the selection process.

The series will be called, “The Storytellers – New Creative Voices of ‘The Twilight Saga’”.

The news comes two years after the last Twilight movie was released.
