Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and the rest of the original cast could be returning to the big screen.
A new Twilight movie could be in the works, as Lionsgate chief Patrick Wachsberger has shown interest in continuing the vampire romance series.
Based on four books by author Stephenie Meyer, the five films in the Twilight Saga grossed 3.345 billion dollars, making the series one of the biggest film franchises ever.
Speaking to Screen Daily, Wachsberger said: "It’s a possibility. Not a certainty, but it’s a possibility." He continued: "It’s about Stephenie [Meyer]. If she wants to tell a story related to those characters, we’re here for her."

Robert Pattinson starred as vampire Edward Cullen in the film series. At the Berlin Film Festival, Pattinson was asked about the possibility of Twilight returning. He said: "I’d be curious what Stephenie would write, but I just think I’d probably be too old. I’m already too old. But yeah, it’d be kind of interesting."
Last year, Kristen Stewart said that she would be "kind of fascinated" by a future reboot of Twilight. Stewart starred as Bella Swan in the films.
However, the Twilight series author Stephenie Meyer is less than interested in the project. A report stated that she is "over" about Twilight and its characters. "I get further away [from Twilight] every day," Meyer said. "For me, it's not a happy place to be."
Though, she clarified that she won't rule out ever writing about Twilight again, saying, "What I would probably do is three paragraphs on my blog saying which of the characters died." She also added that, "I'm interested in spending time in other worlds, like Middle Earth."
