Drew Barrymore Newest ‘Twilight’ Director?

Written by Violet on March 1, 2009 – 10:47 pm

Stephanie Meyer’s vampire movies are getting yet another director for the third film, ‘Eclipse.’  The short time between ‘New Moon’ and ‘Eclipse’ will make Chris Weitz unable to return for the third installment so Summit Entertainment is checking out other possibilities, including actress/producer/director Drew Barrymore. She has been a very successful producer with the ‘Charlie’s Angels’ franchise and has just completed directing Ellen Page in ‘Whip It.’

These films will have to be completed quickly before the cast (Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner in particular,) ages too dramatically, so getting a new director on board is important if ‘Eclipse’ is going to be released June 30, 2010.

Introducing a new director for a massive franchise is nothing new in Hollywood. It has been extremely successful for the Harry Potter films so why not for the ‘Twilight’ series? I wonder who else, besides Barrymore is being considered…
