Drew Barrymore has revealed that Kristen Bell is a champion poker player.
The actresses became friends while co-starring in the new romantic drama Big Miracle and would often engage in card games after they finished filming for the day.
"Kristen and John Krasinski would have poker nights at their hotel rooms all the time while we were filming in Alaska. She definitely whooped my ass!" Barrymore recalled in a new interview with Vegas.
Barrymore went on to praise Bell's acting ability, which she experienced first-hand while shooting Big Miracle.
"Kristen is incredibly witty. While playing this character, who is sometimes doing things the audience is supposed to be cracking up at, she was able to be funny in an un-obvious way. There's a real cleverness there," she said.
Barrymore announced her engagement to boyfriend Will Kopelman last month and has said that she is "super happy" in the relationship.
