Drew Barrymore Biography

Drew Barrymore

Drew Barrymore, who was born on February 22nd, 1975, was born into one of the most illustrious acting families in the annals of the entertainment industry. The list of Barrymores who have worked as actors before and after her paternal grandfather, the illustrious John Barrymore, is too long to enumerate here.

He was one of the most celebrated actors of his day. In addition to Steven Spielberg and Sophia Loren, Drew also counts them among her godparents. Her infamously turbulent life includes parties, drugs, and alcohol at a very young age. She entered rehab at the age of 13, and at the age of 15, she became independent of her parents.

Drew Barrymore Career

Barrymore started her acting career even earlier in life, at the age of just 11 months. She allegedly won the job after being nipped by a dog during her audition for a dog food commercial and choosing to laugh as opposed to cry.

She made her feature film debut in the science fiction movie Altered States a few years later, but it was her part as Elliot’s younger sister Gertie in the movie E.T. two years later that catapulted her to international fame.

Barrymore was chosen for the 1984 Stephen King adaption Firestarter after E.T. She appeared in the film Irreconcilable Differences that same year as a young girl fighting for the divorce of her famous parents, a part that had uncanny similarities to her own life.

She appeared in another Stephen King movie the following year, 1985’s horror compilation Cat’s Eye. She kept working throughout the 1980s despite having a more complicated personal situation.

When she made a concerted effort to shed her image as a child actor and started acting in more mature teen parts, Barrymore underwent a change in image during the 1990s. The most recognizable of these is most likely 1992’s Poison Ivy, which was a box office failure when it was released theatrically but later developed into a cult favorite on home video.

She appeared in another legendary classic in 1993, the utterly illimitable sensual thriller Doppelganger. With Adam Sandler, she had another standout performance in the late 1990s’ The Wedding Singer, and she brought the decade to a close in 1999 with Never Been Kissed.

With her role as one of the three Charlie’s Angels in the 2000 reboot and its 2003 sequel Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle, Drew Barrymore began her ascent to movie stardom in the 2000s, earning one of her highest paychecks of $14 million.

She did, however, simultaneously appear in a number of smaller independent films, including Confessions of a Dangerous Mind and Donnie Darko. Then, in 2009, she directed the roller derby drama Whip It for the first time in a feature film.

Barrymore had another career change with a major part in the Netflix original series Santa Clarita Diet alongside Timothy Olyphant after a few more leading roles in movies including Going the Distance and Blended.
