A fourth Drew Barrymore–Adam Sandler movie might be on the horizon.
On this morning’s episode of The Drew Barrymore Show, the actress confirmed that they are “100%” planning to do another movie together in the future while chatting with Ross Mathews and Kate Hudson.
“We talk about it all the time,” Barrymore said. “And I know that we are going to do it. And yes, 100% yes.”
The “cinematic soulmates,” as Barrymore often calls them, first teamed up for the 1998 rom-com The Wedding Singer. They reunited six years later for 50 First Dates and again in 2014 for Blended.
Barrymore, who has put acting on the back burner to focus on her kids and her talk show, recently opened up about what she learned from her films with Sandler.
“Sandler, I feel like, is emblematic of there can be romance in everything you do and it doesn’t have to be of the sexual kind,” she said on the Jan. 16 episode of The Drew Barrymore Show. “A lot of my favorite movies are love stories that have nothing to do with sex. It can be between two men, two women, a father-daughter. Those types of movies. I feel like that’s kind of how Sandler and I are.”
The actress even credited her longtime friend with helping her get back to work after she had her first daughter in 2012.
“I went and worked with Adam Sandler and that felt safe because I knew he had two daughters,” she said in a November 2024 episode of her show. “And he was someone I trusted with everything that I know and I just thought, ‘I’ll be adjacent to people who I know work and have kids and that will make me feel safer.'”
It’s been over a decade since they’ve done a movie together — and Barrymore has been teasing another project for quite some time now. In a February 2023 episode of her talk show, she revealed that they were “definitely” working on finding the right script.
“There’s conversations to find the thing,” she said at the time. “I think it’s very script-story-specific. And yeah, we’re actively seeking the right thing. I’ll just leave it at that.”
Maybe 2025 will be their year!
