Spanish Horror Director Joins The Race For Eclipse

Spanish director and Guillermo Del Toro apprentice, Juan Antonio Bayona, has joined the pool of candidates to direct the third Twilight installment, Eclipse, although Summit won’t confirm anything. The also includes Paul Weitz, Drew Barrymore, and James Mangold.
The selection of Bayona would signal a genre shift for Twilight toward something darker, which suits the book’s murder mystery plot.
We don’t care if they choose a chimpanzee to direct, just as long as it isn’t Drew!
Although really, a rock could direct the movie, and the tweenagers would still come in drones!
