A Major 'Twilight' Star Is Down To Return For The TV Show, So Bring On The Sparkly Vampires

The "Twilight" book series amassed a giant fanbase that couldn’t wait to see the beloved characters they read about in Stephanie Meyers’ book series come to life on the big screen. It's been over a decade since the film franchise ended, and some have been eager to return to Meyers' fictional universe. So when it was announced that a TV series is in the works, many seemed pumped or at the very least, curious. Specific plot details on the show haven't been divulged at this time but, even though its early days for the project, one major actor from the movies has thrown the hat in the ring. So bring on more of the sparkly vampires!

Now, I know what you might be thinking, and no. I’m not talking about Robert Pattinson or Taylor Lautner. This star played a vampire who had flawless restraint when it came to sucking the blood of every human he treated. If you were able to guess who I'm talking about, then your mind probably arrived at Peter Facinelli, who played Dr. Carlisle Cullen during the entire film series. While speaking to Variety at the Cameron Boyce Foundation Gala, which honored the legacy of the Disney star who died at the age of 20 from an epileptic seizure, Facinelli sounded enthusiastic about the notion of returning.
