February 27, 2026·about 16 hours ago·via AOL.com
Drew Barrymore reflects on why she never expected '50 First Dates' to succeed. On her show, she reveals the film started as a dramatic Seattle-set story titled '50 First Kisses,' with a bleak original ending where her character Lucy tells Adam Sandler's Henry to leave because her amnesia-riddled life traps him. This version kept Lucy and Henry in their repetitive, ambiguous pattern, far from the heartwarming romantic comedy audiences love.
