Iconic Women of the 90s Three Decades Later

In the late nineties, Barrymore appeared in a series of family films that helped to tone down her controversial image. Among others, she co-starred with Adam Sandler in The Wedding Singer (1998), she starred in the romantic drama Ever After (1998) and she produced and starred in the romantic comedy Never Been Kissed (1999).

Going into the new millennium, in 2000 Barrymore starred in Charlie’s Angels alongside Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu. The film was a major success and helped solidify Barrymore’s Hollywood career. She continued to appear in blockbusters all throughout the decade, including Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002), 50 First Dates (2004) – another successful collaboration with Adam Sandler – and He’s Just Not That Into You (2009). Today, her career is still going strong.
