Drew Barrymore has been tapped to co-host the 12th season of the cable network’s signature showcase The Essentials, joining TCM host Robert Osbourne each week to introduce classic films and provide commentary on the pic’s cultural relevance and what makes it a must-see film.

The new season of The Essentials bows Saturday, March 3 and will feature films including Dinner at Eight, starring Barrymore’s grandfather, John and her great uncle, Lionel. Other films set to screen as part of the showcase include This Is Spinal Tap and Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
