Over the years, both Sandler and Barrymore have each found success starring in a plethora of films together and separately. In his individual career, Sandler has made a name for himself as a leading man in comedy films but has also shown that he has a deeper range when it comes to acting.

While fans have come to know and love Sandler and Barrymore's on-screen relationship, they have grown to love their off-screen friendship even more. They've been friends for more than two decades and have been there for each other during times of support and times of celebration.
