Wendi McLendon-Covey has joined the cast of “The Familymoon,” a Warner Bros. comedy that reteams Adam Sandler with his “Wedding Singer” co-star Drew Barrymore, according to two individuals with knowledge of the deal.

The film follows a couple (Sandler and Barrymore) whose disastrous blind date lands them at a family resort with their children from previous marriages.

Joel McHale will play Barrymore’s former husband while McLendon-Covey will play Barrymore’s best friend, a woman who has no children.

Chelsea Handler previously had the role in the film, which Mike Karz and Bill Bindley’s Gulfstream Pictures is producing with Sandler’s Happy Madison productions.

McLendon-Covey, who charmed audiences as the forthright Rita in “Bridesmaids,” will soon wrap the Atlanta-based film and then fly off to star in a TV show for Happy Madison — “The Goldbergs.” That show starts production Aug. 5.
