Barrymore glad to miss out on 'Twilight' sequel





Drew Barrymore is glad she isn’t directing ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’.

The actress – who has just directed her first movie, ‘Whip It!’ – was shortlisted to helm the third movie in the vampire franchise and insists she wasn’t upset to miss out because she wasn’t “in love with” the script enough to give it her full commitment.

She explained: “Timing-wise, I’m glad that it didn’t work out and everything I think happens for whatever reason it’s supposed to. I’m very much looking forward to seeing that film. And there’s been two or three others that I’ve flirted with.

"The thing that’s really the most important for me is to be so in love with what I do that it’s what gets you out of bed and makes you work six to seven days a week, 18 hours a day.

"Unless you’re that invested, you won’t care about every single detail. Every little coffee mug that’s in the corner, every little lighting scheme, every lens package, every costume, every piece of casting, every line of dialogue - everything has to get 150 per cent of your attention and passion.

"It has to be something that you’re that in love with, so I’ll wait until I find that thing. The truth is I haven’t had the time yet in order to recharge my batteries and find that thing yet."
