Drew Barrymore doesn't "know how" to retire.
The 51-year-old actress first found fame as a child star, appearing in movies such as E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Firestarter, and Irreconcilable Differences - and Drew admits that she struggles with the idea of retirement.
Speaking to wrestler-turned-actor John Cena on The Drew Barrymore Show, she said: "I don’t know how and when to let go. And I don’t want to retire, necessarily, yet.
"And I was just curious, like how you decided to retire from wrestling?"
John Cena retired from the WWE in 2025, and he offered some advice to the movie star.
John, 49, told Drew: "It’s when ... when your beliefs line up, that it’s the right choice.
"I want to be in the ring forever. I want to be there now. I love it. I’ll always love it.
"I also made a promise to myself to not do bad work. To not selfishly hang on for my own ego, and just to feed my own thing, and take away from everybody else."
Drew previously admitted that she felt anxious before launching her own TV talk show.
The actress told AARP: "I was terrified when I started. I felt very insecure and suffered a sort of impostor syndrome, judging myself.
"We launched in the pandemic and if we did get to talk to somebody live, it was on Zoom. I had time-management issues —the interviews would go on for 30, 40 minutes and people would be like, 'How do you make a television show if you’re taking two hours of film to make 42 minutes of film time?' Five years in, it’s getting a lot better. But it wasn’t overnight."
Asked how she found her way, Drew shared: "Whenever I was interviewed by journalists, they had an agenda, a set of questions. Now I have a game plan going in, too.
"I do my research. I know where I’d like to start. I know I’ve got to finish at a certain point. But I’m not fanatical about following a set of questions — I love discovering anything surprising or natural that happens along the way."
