Barrymore tried to answer questions about why she would choose to continue the show amid the strike — and without her team of WGA writers.
“I certainly couldn’t have expected this kind of attention, and we aren’t going to break rules and we will be in compliance. I wanted to do this because as I said, this is bigger than me and there are other people’s jobs on the line,” she said.“I didn’t want to hide behind people, so I won’t, and I won’t polish this with bells and whistles and publicists and corporate rhetoric,” she said. “I’ll just stand out there and accept and be responsible.
“I weighed the scales and I thought, ‘If we could go on during a global pandemic and everything the world has experienced through 2020, why would this sideline us?’” she said. “So, I want to just put one foot in front of the other and make a show that’s there for people, regardless of anything else that’s happening in the world, because that’s when I think we all need something that wants to be there being very realistic in very realistic times. So that is my why.
In a statement released Sunday, Barrymore said that she personally owns the decision to resume production ofactor said in a statement. “We are in compliance with not discussing or promoting film and television that is struck of any kind.”Already, Barrymore’s apology has not been well received.
