'Twilight' saga set to return with 5 short films on Facebook

'Twilight' saga will return with five short films exclusively on Facebook, it has been reported.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, as part of the initiative by Lionsgate, author Stephenie Meyer and Women in Film, called "The Storytellers, New Creative Voices of The Twilight Saga," a "multiphase contest" would be held, to select at least five female filmmakers to helm the new short films.

Dan Rose, Facebook vice president of partnerships, stated that this was a great opportunity to engage Twilight's massive global audience on Facebook through an innovative premium video program.

Participating in the selection and mentorship of the filmmakers would be a group of panelists including Meyer, Kristen Stewart, Kate Winslet, Octavia Spencer, Frozen writer Jennifer Lee, director Catherine Hardwicke, Modern Family's Julie Bowen and the president of Women In Film, Cathy Schulman.
