Actress Drew Barrymore has opened up about her unique on-screen relationship with Adam Sandler during a recent appearance on “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.” The 49-year-old star shared intimate details about their long-standing professional partnership and deep friendship.
Barrymore explained that her chemistry with Sandler goes beyond typical romantic attraction. “It’s something bigger than hot, sexual chemistry,” she said, describing their connection as a “true admiration of another person.” The pair have collaborated on three successful romantic comedies, including “The Wedding Singer” (1998), “50 First Dates” (2004), and “Blended” (2014).
What makes their relationship particularly interesting is the support from Sandler’s wife, Jackie. Adam Sandler previously revealed on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” that his wife actively encourages their on-screen interactions. “The best thing is that my wife loves Drew so much that there’s no jealousy at all,” Sandler shared.

Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler are friendship goals.
Barrymore recently stopped by Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. During a game, the late-night host asked Barrymore: “Who’s been your best on-screen kiss?” The actress replied, “I mean, I love that Adam Sandler and I are so platonic. We never dated, his wife Jackie [Sandler] is my dear friend.”
She continued: “But, I love being in films with him because I think we’re representing something bigger than hot sexual chemistry. We’re representing true admiration of another person.”
Cohen then noted that he loved their kiss scene in the rom-com The Wedding Singer.
The pair have also appeared together in 50 First Dates and Blended.
Barrymore and Sandler have stayed close in real life, and their families have even watched 50 First Dates together. In 2020, they recreated their roles from the beloved film in a sketch for Barrymore’s talk show,...

Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler always played the believable couple whenever they were paired together in a film. Outside of the films, they are best friends, with Barrymore stating that she is friends with Sandler’s wife Jackie. While their relationship is platonic, Barrymore had no problem in naming him her best onscreen kiss.

Exclusive: Fifth Season is nearing a deal to produce A Ladder to the Sky, a feature adaptation of the 2018 novel by John Boyne, with two-time Emmy winner Johan Renck (Chernobyl) in talks to direct. Fresh off of eight Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, for his papal thriller Conclave, Edward Berger is among the other producers.
A Ladder to the Sky is described as a thrilling drama about an ambitious, handsome young writer who manipulates, seduces, and plagiarizes his way to literary stardom. His obsession with climbing the ranks sends him journeying through the Amalfi Coast, Manhattan, London, and beyond — but the higher he climbs, the further he has to fall.
Published by The Hogarth Press, an imprint of Penguin Random House, the book was shortlisted for Novel of the Year at the 2018 Irish Book Awards.

Comedy filmmakers love a big lie. From Fargo to Tootsie to Overboard to Mrs. Doubtfire, the genre is packed with stories about a beleaguered protagonist coming up with an outlandish claim that quickly grows beyond their control. So Kinda Pregnant, out today on Netflix, is joining a long tradition: Lainy (Amy Schumer) is mistaken for a pregnant woman, decides to run with it, then makes a new friend and has to keep up the ruse. Schumer, who co-wrote the screenplay, is known for her joke-dense stand-up sets and for sexually frank movies like Trainwreck. The film has been released under Adam Sandler’s banner, Happy Madison, home of such past hits as, well, Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison. So when you hear that Sandler and Schumer have teamed up on a comedy about pregnancy, you might get a particular picture of what it’s going to be like. But here...

I fear the real Patch Adams may watch Kinda Pregnant, hang up their stethoscope, and finally admit that laughter is not the best medicine. That’s how bad this Amy Schumer movie is, a jaw-droppingly unfunny, utterly misguided, and cringy comedy candidate to be one of the worst films in 2025.
And the year is only a little bit over five weeks old.
Why would Schumer star in a film like this? It’s hard to say, but we know this comedy fails to utilize her talents as she sleepwalks through the role she wrote, which should be tailored to her life experiences. This suggests a disconnect between the studio and the creative team behind her.

It’s been almost 30 years since we last saw Happy Gilmore, the long-driving hero who won the Tour Championship in 1996. Now we finally get to catch up with him in a new sequel. That’s right, Adam Sandler is returning to the golf green as Happy Gilmore, and he’s bringing along a few familiar and fresh faces. Joining the film alongside Sandler are original Happy Gilmore stars Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald and brand-new co-star Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio (aka Bad Bunny).
Some professional golfers have joined the roster, too, including Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau, Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas, and Will Zalatoris. Check them out in this behind-the-scenes video with Sandler.

Prison dramas are strange. It’s certainly not my go-to genre when it comes to recommending films or TV shows, and it is definitely not something I gravitate to in my free time. But if I come across one by chance, and if it’s even half-decent, I can assure you that I’ll stick with it all the way to the end. That’s how I came across masterpieces like The Great Escape, Escape from Alcatraz, The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, and The Hurricane. I watched Starred Up for Jack O’Connell, Chopper for Eric Bana, Bronson for Tom Hardy, A Prayer Before Dawn for Joe Cole, Gridiron Gang for Dwayne Johnson, The Longest Yard for Adam Sandler, and Brawl in Cell Block 99 for Vince Vaughn. Also, Chicken Run is undoubtedly up there with the greats. Now, when it comes to TV shows, I don’t show the same kind of zeal.

Before making a joke about the late Robert Kardashian in Kinda Pregnant, Amy Schumer said she sought permission from his daughter Kim Kardashian.
During an interview on The Howard Stern Show, the actress discussed a scene in the Netflix film where her character reads a bedtime story while babysitting, that she reads from the pages of a spoof pop culture magazine.
“There was once a family of beautiful, beautiful princesses called the Kardashians,” her character says in the scene. “And they lived in a palace that their dad bought them by defending a murderer.”
However, before that joke was finalized in the script and filmed, Schumer called Kim to get her opinion.
“I called Kim Kardashian. I said, ‘I want to make this joke,'” she recalled. “I asked if she would mind, and she didn’t mind. How cool is she? She’s like, ‘Yeah, do the one about my dad defending a murderer.

Happy Gilmore 2 Updates (Photo Credit – Instagram)
Guess what? Happy Gilmore 2 is officially happening! Fans of the original, easily one of Adam Sandler’s funniest films, can now rejoice. In 1996, Sandler hit it big with Happy Gilmore, where he played a failed hockey player who discovered his hidden golf talent. Who knew yelling at golf balls and throwing tantrums could become a big screen hit? The film, with its hilarious antics and epic rivalries (shoutout to Shooter McGavin!), helped cement Sandler as a comedy superstar.
It’s also packed with iconic moments and characters, from Carl Weathers’ Chubbs to Ben Stiller’s evil orderly. While Sandler’s never been too keen on sequels, the success and love for Happy Gilmore kept the idea alive. And now, after all these years, it’s happening. Buckle up for round two because Happy’s coming back to the golf course, and you...

“Kinda Pregnant” is a Netflix comedy film that offers a twist on the romantic comedy genre. Directed by Tyler Spindel and written by Julie Paiva and Amy Schumer, the movie stars Schumer as Lainy, a woman whose life takes an unexpected turn when her plans to settle down and start a family fall apart.
The film’s premise revolves around Lainy’s unconventional decision to wear a fake baby bump out of jealousy for her best friend’s pregnancy. This seemingly harmless act of deception leads to a series of comedic situations and, surprisingly, a chance at love. As Lainy navigates the challenges of maintaining her fake pregnancy, she unexpectedly meets the man of her dreams, adding a layer of complexity to her already complicated situation.

Is BIll Murray heading back to his old 30 Rock stomping grounds for Saturday Night Live’s 50th season?
“I told (Lorne Michaels) that I’d like to host one this year,” Murray explained to the Kelce brothers on their New Heights podcast. “I think I did it two other times other than when I was there so I’d like to try it one more time. It might be the last time to try it.”
First things first: Murray is a Five-Timer, so he’s gotten his share of chances. But his last time headlining the show was in 1999, meaning he hasn’t gotten a turn during this century. In a season celebrating the show’s rich history, why wouldn’t Michaels welcome back his most famous alumni like Murray? No offense to Paul Mescal and Charli Xcx, but we could use a few more classic cast members fronting the show this year.

The best part about watching movies is probably the easter eggs hidden in plain sight. For comedy genius Adam Sandler, the easter egg is none other than his wife, Jackie Sandler. (née Titone). The couple tied the knot all the way back in 2003 and have two beautiful daughters together, Sadie and Sunny. Adam Sandler’s family members have made many cameos in his films. For example, his daughters played a role in the Hotel Transylvania franchise. However, it is Jackie Sandler who takes the cake here!

Hollywood loves to base things on true stories; it takes the whole idea-generating process out of the equation. In fact, even some stories that seem like they had to have been dreamed up by some coked-out bigwig have turned out to be, as improbable as it sounds, inspired by actual events. Such as…
[subtitle]5Chicago[subtitle]
The sensationalist crime- and jazz-infested world of Chicago in the ‘20s was, of course, real, but so was its pair of merry murderesses. Beulah Annan and Belva Gaertner’s stories mirror Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly’s down to the tiniest detail, like Annan’s insistence that she and her extramarital lover both reached for the gun and her confession that she “danced around the apartment and listened to music until her husband returned home hours later.” Both women were incarcerated in the Cook County Jail together in 1924, though it’s unknown if they participated in any choreography.

You know what to expect in February, don't you? It is Valentine's Day month, so we should expect a bunch of sappy, happy, and ludicrous films to be available for streaming. Some might even be worth watching.
Still, love stories are not all we will get in month two. Netflix has made sure of that. And yes, one of the films below is a film about romance. Whether you should see it or not, we have an idea.
The other films on what to see in February are not about love at all. Not directly anyway. So, if you want to watch movies about people falling in love, you can find those on your favorite streaming service. You just might not find them here.

Dave Matthews has built a career that goes far beyond his prominent voice and jam-packed concerts. With a net worth of $350 million, he’s one of the richest musicians out there. But how did he get here? It’s not just from selling albums.
Matthews is the frontman of the Dave Matthews Band (Dmb), one of the most successful touring acts in history. Since forming in 1991, the band has been on the road almost every summer, making millions from their live shows.
They don’t just play the same songs every night—each show is distinct, making fans come back constantly. This impressive touring style has made Dmb one of the biggest money-making bands in the world.

Skye P. Marshall isn’t religious, but she does believe in magic. You’d have to have some faith in a higher power after the few years she’s had. For the “Matlock” actress, 2020 and beyond has been a veritable hot streak of impeccable timing, great luck, and classic Hollywood fairytale. Few TV actors experience such good fortune, especially these days — but Marshall’s breakout role on CBS’s buzzy legal drama didn’t happen overnight.
“I didn’t have the courage to ask for what I wanted to do with the rest of my adult life until I was 27,” Marshall told IndieWire, looking back on the decade since she moved from New York to California. “Everyone thought I was crazy. They were like, ‘Do you have an agent?’ ‘No.’ ‘Any formal training?’ ‘Not really.’ ‘You have friends in LA though, right?’ ‘No, I do not.’ It was a cocktail...

2025 is going to be great for Netflix. Sure, we have not seen all the streamer is going to gift us, but let's presume that things will be terrific. Netflix has never (mostly) let us down.
Some people complain there are too many foreign titles on the streamer. This seems...well, odd. Netflix is a global company and foreign films and shows can be just as good as the English-language ones.

Watch! Whatever the premise, we know that Adam Sandler's character is going to play some golf, and hilarity will commence. The original film was funny fluff, and this one might be as well.
Some people complain there are too many foreign titles on the streamer. This seems...well, odd. Netflix is a global company and foreign films and shows can be just as good as the English-language ones.

Adam Sandler has some help on the golf course in Netflix’s newly released look at its upcoming comedy sequel Happy Gilmore 2.
The streaming service shared a new sneak-peek image from the forthcoming film on Thursday, coinciding with the company announcing its plans for movie, TV and game projects in the coming year. In director Kyle Newacheck’s sequel, Sandler reprises his role as the titular unlikely golf sensation that he originated in Universal’s 1996 feature Happy Gilmore. Filming for the project wrapped last month.
As seen in the new still below, Sandler is ready to take one of his character’s signature golf swings while getting caddy assistance from Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, also known as singer Bad Bunny. Another image, which is above, shows Sandler facing off with longtime rival Shooter McGavin, with actor Christopher McDonald reprising his role from the initial movie.

Netflix just blew up social media. The streaming giant decided to make January 30 a special day as they announced a bunch of news about shows and movies coming in 2025. And yes, sadly, some will need to wait until 2026 or beyond.
Still, if you have any social media accounts and you follow Netflix, you might have spent your day just scrolling. The streamer announced some news about Squid Game. And teased looks at Happy Gilmore and Knives Out. All of those you likely love, and you should. But now you know a bit more about what is next.
The question some Netflix fans might have is what news will drop next on social media. Might we find out more release dates? Let's hope. It is the end of the month, of course, and new Netflix Originals will be coming in February, but we also have some great news about the rest of the year,...

A little over a year ago, it was reported that Noah Baumbach has been tapped to helm his fourth project with Netflix after Marriage Story, White Noise and The Meyerowitz Stories. He’ll be reuniting with Sandler and pairing the comedic actor with George Clooney for the new project. The details for the movie’s plot has yet to be revealed, but Baumbach is also on board as a producer on the movie. He will be joined by Sony’s Amy Pascal and David Heyman as producers. Heyman had also worked with Baumbach on Marriage Story and also produced Barbie.
While plot details are still kept under wraps, Deadline has revealed some new details that Netflix announced in their big presser. It is now known that the title for this project is Jay Kelly and it is slated to drop sometime in the fall, but an exact date has yet to be announced.

Claire Dunphy may just be into the firefighters of LA, but Modern Family star Julie Bowen had a different crush back in the day. The actress began her career in the ‘90s and was struggling to make it in Hollywood while the decade saw the emergence of the quirky yet attractive Johnny Depp.
Bowen mentioned that she had a huge crush on Depp and had even fantasized about how they would fall in love when she was hanging out at his club ‘The Viper Room’. While she imagined a cinematic meet-cute, fate seemed to have other plans and the first time they met in real life turned out to be like a Modern Family episode.

Now that we’re shaking off the ice and snow (at least for a few days), is it too early to think about weddings, or even movie weddings? Sure, they’re always a ripe setting for romance and drama, though for the last couple of decades, it’s proven to be a perfect backdrop for comedy, from the Father Of The Bride reboots to Bride Wars, the Best Man series, and, of course, Bridesmaids. which often concern the ceremony itself and the long “prep”. Well, for this new flick we get two wedding parties, but the big focus isn’t on the couple, but rather on two relatives of the brides. And it’s the first pairing of two movie comedy vets. It’s a rare mix of a “rom-com” icon and...

THR reports that Benny Safdie is set to reunite with Christopher Nolan for The Odyssey, the director’s epic adaptation of Homer’s ancient Greek poem.
Safdie played theoretical physicist Edward Teller in Oppenheimer, and much like that film, he’ll be part of an all-star ensemble cast for The Odyssey that includes Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Lupita Nyong’o, Robert Pattinson, Charlize Theron, Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, and Jon Bernthal.
The Odyssey tells the tale of Odysseus, King of Ithaca, and his journey home after the ten-year Trojan War. The trip was filled with peril, including encounters with the Cyclops Polyphemus, the Sirens, and the witch-goddess Circe. At home, Odysseus is presumed dead, and his wife Penelope and son Telemachus must contend with groups of unruly suitors who each want Penelope’s hand in marriage to control the kingdom.
