SNEAK PEEK: GOING THE DISTANCE

Drew Barrymore and Justin Long share a long-distance love affair in New Line Cinema’s new romantic comedy GOING THE DISTANCE.

In the film, Erin ’s (Barrymore) wry wit and unfiltered frankness charm newly single Garrett (Long) over beer, bar trivia and breakfast the next morning. Their chemistry sparks a full-fledged summer fling, but neither expects it to last once Erin heads home to San Francisco and Garrett stays behind for his job in New York City . But when six weeks of romping through the city inadvertently become meaningful, neither is sure they want it to end.

And while Garrett’s friends, Box (Jason Sudeikis) and Dan (Charlie Day), joke about his pre-flight calorie-cutting and his full-time relationship with his cell phone, they don’t like losing their best drinking buddy to yet another rocky romance.

At the same time, Erin’s high-strung, overprotective married sister, Corrine (Christina Applegate), wants to keep Erin from heading down an all-too-familiar road.

But despite the opposite coasts, the nay-saying friends and family, and a few unexpected temptations, the couple just might have found something like love, and with the help of a lot of texting, sexting and late-night phone calls, they might actually go the distance.

Academy Award®-nominated documentary filmmaker Nanette Burstein (On the Ropes) makes her feature film directorial debut with Going the Distance. The film is written by Geoff LaTulippe.

Burstein’s behind-the-scenes creative team includes director of photography Eric Steelberg (Up in the Air), production designer Kevin Kavanaugh (Whip It), editor Peter Teschner (Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan), costume designer Catherine Marie Thomas (The Proposal) and composer Mychael Danna ((500) Days of Summer).

Opening soon across the Philippines , GOING THE DISTANCE is a New Line Cinema production, and distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
