Drew Barrymore and director Steven Spielberg are in talks to make a sequel to Hollywood classic ET.

Barrymore is anxious to resume her role as Gertie Elliot, but only if Spielberg, who directed the first film, agrees to oversee the project. Barrymore was six-years-old when ET: The Extraterrestrial shot her to fame in 1982.

According to reports the sequel will see ET return to a now grown-up Gertie, desperate for help saving his family from extinction. "Drew has spoken to Steven about it," a Hollywood insider said. "Although he thought she was joking at first, he's actually giving it serious thought." "Drew thinks the world needs another feelgood movie like ET right now and she's prepared to work with Steven to make it happen."

--This is just wrong. Let it go, Drew. You'll ruin it.
