Drew's Grey Success
After starring in the ensemble romantic comedy He's Just Not That Into You, Barrymore switches gears to portray Edith "Little Edie" Bouvier Beale, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis' reclusive first cousin, in the HBO movie Grey Gardens. The film, which garners Emmy buzz, attracts 2.7 million viewers by weekend's end, making it HBO's most watched TV movie since 2004.
Reuniting with Justin
At the premiere of her HBO flick Grey Gardens, Barrymore cozies up to former flame Justin Long. "I adore him," she says. "And I thank God that my friend supports me the way he does." While neither confirm being back on, they're reuniting onscreen in the upcoming comedy Going the Distance.
Behind the Camera
Barrymore takes her first shot at directing for Whip It, a coming-of-age comedy starring Juno's Ellen Page who joins an all-girl roller derby team. "I like movies about girls who are capable," she says.
