Adam Sandler, Drew Barrymore reunite for rom-com

Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore are teaming up for another comedy.

The frequent co-stars, who've previously played romantic leads in 2004's "50 First Dates" and 1998's "The Wedding Singer," are signed on for an as-yet-untitled movie, reports Variety.

The script, written by Ivan Menchell and Clare Sera, centers on a couple who go on a horrible blind date and then end up stuck together at a family resort with their children from prior marriages.

Frank Coraci, who directed Sandler and Barrymore in "Wedding Singer" and went on to work with Sandler twice more, will helm the feature.

Production on the project is expected to begin in May.

    He needs Drew because when he works with her, that's about the only time he makes a movie that doesn't completely suck balls. I like Adam Sandler but all his movies stink.

    I was wondering when these two talented actors would reunite for another film. I liked em in both films. Good to see them pairing up. Seems like they have a good working relationship. Its interesting to see them do a film together each decade. Their first film in 1997 and then another one in 2004, and finally for 2013 or 2014. I like the film idea already and they should green light it and make it.
