CHRISTINA APPLEGATE AND DREW BARRYMORE MORPHING TOGETHER?

Posted by Adam

Drew BarrymoreDREW Barrymore thinks she and Christina Applegate are morphing together.

The former child actress — who plays the sister of the Samantha Who star in new romantic comedy Going The Distance — admits she was shocked to realize they were starting to look alike after working together so closely.

“I thought it was interesting,” said Drew, “I felt like we started to really look alike, which I thought was cool. I loved when people cast siblings where it’s actually feasible could have come from the same womb, so I felt like we started to morph.”

The pair have been friends for years since attending dance classes together as children.

“We used to be in a dance class together when we were kids, but she looked really good in spandex and I did not,” Drew said. “I’ve known her forever. We have a lot of parallels. It worked for us.”

The 38-year-old actress loved working on the comedy film, but admits she was shocked by how “real” the emotions of her character felt to her.

“I just feel like, I personally want something that I can escape into and forget what’s going on around me, but I don’t want to lose sight of being able to relate to something,” she said. “So for me I just want that beautiful, striking balance and I feel like this film has that.

“I’m laughing, but I’m crying and relating and emotional about it. I feel like it gets surprisingly real, but then it does come and save you and make you laugh.”
