I have just added 9 pictures of Christina Applegate during the press conference for “Going The Distance”! Christina looks really great in the photos!

Christina Applegate and Drew Barrymore chat with Access’ Tony Potts about their new romantic comedy, “Going the Distance.” How do they stump each other? Also, the duo talks about their tight bond on set.

Get your exclusive first look of “Going The Distance,” in which Christina Applegate walks in at the wrong time, just as Drew Barrymore and Justin Long go the dirty distance to make their bi-costal relationship work!

Warner Bros. Pictures is pushing the opening of the new comedy “Going the Distance” back one week, to September 3, 2010, it was announced today by Dan Fellman, Warner Bros. Pictures President of Domestic Distribution.

In making the announcement, Fellman stated, “Moving to the Labor Day weekend not only allows us to take advantage of the long holiday weekend, but gives us some distance from the other female-driven films releasing in August. Additionally, we have an opportunity to build more awareness and word-of-mouth for a movie we believe has strong appeal for a broad audience.”

“Going the Distance” stars Drew Barrymore, Justin Long, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis and Christina Applegate. Barrymore plays Erin, whose wry wit and unfiltered frankness charm newly single Garrett (Justin Long) over beer, bar trivia and breakfast the next morning. Their chemistry sparks a full-fledged summer fling, but neither expects it to last once Erin heads home to San Francisco and Garrett stays behind for his job in New York City. But when six weeks of romping through the city inadvertently become meaningful, neither is sure they want it to end. But despite the opposite coasts, the couple just might have found something like love, and with the help of a lot of texting, sexting and late-night phone calls, they might actually go the distance.

It’s a 10 hair care line is joining forces with Christina Applegate and her foundation, Right Action for Women in the fight against breast cancer and in the effort to raise breast cancer awareness by creating a Limited Edition pink bottle of It’s a 10 Miracle Leave In. A portion of each purchase will go to Christina’s Foundation, Right Action for Women.

Christina founded Right Action for Women in 2008 after receiving her own cancer diagnosis. Today, Christina is a cancer survivor and pregnant! She’s also a big fan of It’s a 10 Miracle Leave In. “This product is truly a miracle,” she says, “and I am so grateful to It’s a 10 for supporting Right Action for Women. During October’s Breast Cancer Awareness month, proceeds from the sale will help women at high risk for cancer get the screenings they need to beat this disease.” The limited edition of It’s a 10 Miracle Leave In will be on shelves at the end of September through October and is available in beauty supply stores worldwide, including Regis, Hair Cuttery, GBS Beauty, Trade Secret, and many more.

Actress Christina Applegate is set to launch her own cancer charity that will help women who can’t afford proper preventative care. Right Action For Women will offer programs to help give financial aid to high-risk women who cant afford to get MRIs. An MRI is one of the breast cancer screening tests recommended by the American Cancer Society for women at increased risk for breast cancer.

Unfortunately, many women are not undergoing genetic testing or having breast cancer screening tests because of financial burden or insurance limitations.

Applegate, a cancer survivor herself, gained an appreciation for the tremendous expenses associated with breast cancer screening and treatment during one of her many doctors visits.

“It’s unfortunate that insurance companies (in America) don’t cover the cost of that. It’s such an incredible device because you can find it at an early detection stage. We started our pilot programme and started helping women already, even though we aren’t launched.

“The other aspect of the programme is to do genetic counselling and help women understand what being high-risk means, and understanding what foods are good for their bloods and how to prevent this disease from happening. That has been my mission.”

She grew up in front of America’s eyes, playing the bubbly but not so bright Kelly Bundy on TV’s “Married… With Children” before moving on to the more mature title role in ABC’s “Samantha Who?,” but Christina Applegate told Access Hollywood she’s not planning to return to TV anytime soon.

Christina — who lends her voice to the new film “Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore” — recently told Access Hollywood the cancellation of “Samantha Who?” in 2009 may have given the actress second thoughts about coming back to television.

“I loved my show so much so it’s going to be hard to find something I’m going to attach myself to at this point,” Christina told Access at the press junket for “Cats & Dogs.” “It’s really hard to leave kind of a perfect situation and perfect character that you just fall so in love with.”

She also produced “Samantha Who?” and said she wants to continue developing projects, but will take her time. She also has a few movies awaiting release, including the romantic comedy “Going The Distance,” starring Drew Barrymore and Justin Long, which will be out in August.

Christina also commented on the recent Emmy sub of “Married” co-star Ed O’Neill for his role as Jay Pritchett on “Modern Family.” As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Ed chose to enter his name in the Best Supporting Actor category, instead of the Lead Actor category, which would’ve likely netted him an Emmy nod.

“That is horrible,” she said. “He deserves so many accolades. The man is so incredibly talented and such a wonderful, wonderful person.”

“Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore” hits theatres July 30.
