However, Justin whispered to her: "I'm being Mr. Hollywood tonight...I have another premiere to go to!"

Shortly after that, spies further downtown at the Loews Union Square, where Barrymore’s premiere was taking place, saw Long sneak in.

Later, the couple later stopped by the Tribeca Film Institute's fete for Everybody's Fine at Tavern on The Green, where they hung with Justin's good pal and Drew's co-star Sam Rockwell, while Justin's cast feted their flick without him further East at a SKYY party at Rogue Tomate. "They looked very happy. It definitely seems serious," the New York Daily News quoted one partygoer as saying.
