DREW BARRYMORE could be eyeing a bigger TV return than first considered.
The actress, who will narrate NBC’s unscripted “First Dates” series for Warner Bros. Television, is considering hosting a daytime talk show for the studio, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
As first reported by Variety, Barrymore has been in discussions to develop a talk show for WBTV. No deal is in place.
The move would come as the next TV gig for the actress. Beyond NBC’s “First Dates” — produced by Ellen DeGeneres’ WBTV-based A Very Good Production banner — Barrymore next stars in Netflix comedy “Santa Clarita Diet.”
Her recent TV gigs have included executive-producing VH1’s “Tough Love,” Esquire’s “Knife Fight” and “Blooms,” a drama in development at MTV.
On the feature side, Barrymore’s credits include “Scream,” “Donnie Darko,” “Charlie’s Angels,” “The Wedding Singer” and “50 First Dates.”(SD-Agencies)
