Blended is the third movie in which Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler have starred together in. Speaking to E! News, Adam joked about their onscreen romance that has been going on for years.

Explaining the awkwardness, he said: ”Absolutely, for Drew every time. It’s been awkward since when we were strangers for her. But I keep saying, ‘They paid you buddy, get in here.’ ”

The two stars previously appeared together in The Wedding Singer and 50 First Dates.

“She wouldn’t want it every day, so I have to give her a pass every four or five years,” Sandler said. “And then I jump in and remind her of why she moved on.”

Speaking to Huffington Post, Drew has admitted she is the one always insisting to work with Adam.

She said: ”I tend to be the one to nudge Adam. With ‘The Wedding Singer’, I was like, ‘We have to work together, we have to find something. I’ve been saying that you and I are cinematic soul mates,’ which probably sounded really crazy at the time because he didn’t know me.

”50 First Dates was actually a different script. It was more of a drama… With this one, I reached out to him and said, ‘Okay, I think it’s time again!’ And he was like, ‘Okay, I’ll go find something.’ And then he called me months later and said he thought he’d found it.”
