Feb 27 2009Drew Barrymore's Vampire Teen Romance?

Someone has thought of a way to make the Twilight series even less appealing to the general population: add Drew Barrymore as director! Did you forget that Drew Barrymore is a director? She is. Drew Barrymore is a director, and she may be directing a Twilight, says Entertainment Weekly:

As Summit Entertainment looks to lock in a director for the third installment of the Twilight series, Eclipse, the company is talking to a select group of directors -- including actress-turned-helmer Drew Barrymore, EW has learned. While this news may come as a surprise to some, Barrymore did just finish work on her directorial debut, Whip It! starring Ellen Page. Neither Summit nor Barrymore's reps would comment for this story

I'm not sure that the intense drama of a Twilight resonates with the Drew Barrymore-starring frivolity of a Flower Films production, but luckily a night vision tape of some teenagers making out in a haunted house would still make over $100 million under the Twilight banner, so who cares?
