All right, so EW has learned something a bit interesting regarding the third movie, Eclipse. Apparently Summit Entertainment is courting a select group of directors to helm the movie, and Drew Barrymore is among them. Barrymore just made her directorial debut with the Ellen Page vehicle Whip It! so it’s not so far-fetched.
It would certainly give the third film some interesting cred if it happened. Neither Summit nor Barrymore’s people would comment on the rumor so I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
