To date, Barrymore's intuition has yielded USD 319.8 million in worldwide box-office grosses, a figure that will escalate this weekend when Blended, the duo's third feature together, hits theatres.


But a lot has changed since Barrymore first recruited Sandler as her signature co-star; she's a director and a mother of two now.


On being asked whether Blended was planned to come out exacty 10 years after 50 First Dates (their second feature film together), the 39-year-old says, "I tend to be the one to nudge Adam.
