Drew Barrymore to get talk show

Drew Barrymore is set to become a talk show host. The 'Miss You Already' star is reportedly in talks about being at the helm of her own chat show in a joint deal with Warner Bros. and Ellen DeGeneres' A Very Good Production company. However, sources insist to Variety that nothing is set in stone at the moment. Meanwhile, Drew recently split from husband Will Kopelman - with whom she has Olive, three, and Frankie, two - and insists she is "doing her best". She said recently: "I'm doing my best. I'm going back to work for the first time in a while to do this Netflix show. I'm not supposed to give away details about the roll, but I'm excited. It's going to be fun. "And then we're just doing a lot with Flower beauty, doing more international, we're in two or three new territories and growing. And our Rosé comes out this spring, and we're selling out. It's gone. I'm so excited about that. Next year is going to be really exciting." And the 41-year-old actress also previously revealed she is feeling positive about the future. When asked what makes her happy, she shared: "Just strength. Now that I'm a mom, and I know that it harkens back to the girls, aside from that, it really is girl power, badass. It is strength, clarity, conviction, health and focus... "It's funny, because there are times in my life that I am so loosey-goosey, so hedonistic, and it is so just 'hippy-dippy,' but right now I feel this great backbone is, 'One foot in front of the other,' which is sort of my attitude right now. That is anything but loosey-goosey - that if you don't stay in a straight line, you are going to get into trouble."
