Spotted: Drew Barrymore & Justin Long Going the Distance

Friday, August 7th, 2009

Spotted yesterday by our guide, Kymberly:  Drew Barrymore, Justin Long, and Ron Livingston filming Going the Distance in the Sheep Meadow at Central Park.

While shooting a scene and playing touch football in the park, things got a little rough and the actors ran over an extra who was sitting on the grass.  All the stars apologized, shaking hands and high-fiving her.  We’d happily get run over by Berger!  Love him!
