Drew Barrymore Wants To Take a Crap On E.T.

Drew Barrymore Wants To Take a Crap On E.T.
Drew Barrymore must be riding the high of the critical success of her surprisingly accurate portrayal of Edie Beale in Grey Gardens, because she's obviously mad with power. How do I know this? Well, apparently she's got her sights set on doing the unthinkable: Making a sequel to E.T., 27 years after the fact.

According the National Enquirer, Barrymore and Spielberg have met to discuss the project, which will show E.T. returning to Earth to rejoin the now-adult Gertie.

A source tells the tabloid, "Steven and Drew are being very secretive about this baby. But they want to do this project and work together. Steven has an incredible story in mind for the sequel that will bring E.T. back to earth." (Source)

Fortunately we're talking about the National Enquirer reporting this and all, which of course isn't typically known for outstanding achievements in not-made-up journalism. Which is a relief, because I like the premise of a Drew Barrymore/E.T. buddy comedy about as much as I like the premise of taking a leisurely stroll through West Philly at night with $100 bills taped all over my entire body.

Wow. Here is Drew Barrymore at Coachella, and this is what she looks like without make-up. That she didn't poorly apply to herself anyway:
