Adam Sandler has secured himself as one of Netflix’s best assets. 

The Uncut Gems actor last year starred in Murder Mystery alongside Jennifer Aniston, which became one of the streaming service’s biggest hits and the most-watched feature in Australia. 

Prior to the comedy, Sandler starred in The Ridiculous 6, The Do-Over, Sandy Wexler, The Week Of, and 100% Fresh, while his production company was responsible for bringing us Father of the Year and Wrong Missy. 

Netflix is now planning to continue the successful collaboration by extending its deal with the 53-year-old actor for another 4 films. 

“Whether you know him as Sandman, the Water Boy, Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, Nick Spitz or simply Adam, one thing is clear: our members can’t get enough of him,” said Ted Sarandos, Netflix Chief Content Officer. “They love his stories and his humor, as we saw with Murder Mystery. So I could not be more excited to extend our partnership with Adam and the Happy Madison team and deliver more laughs around the world.”

Sandler’s next film for Netflix is Hubie Halloween, which is expected out later this year.

Adam Sandler’s new film is turning into the little indie flick that could. 

Uncut Gems is only scheduled for wide screen release on Christmas Day, but it has already opened at some theaters in the United States. 

The Safdie Brothers’ movie has received rave reviews as it features the Murder Mystery star in a departure from his usual slapstick comedic roles. Sandler plays a New York jeweler who finds himself involved in some deals that see him forced to perfect a fine balancing act between business, family, and those who would rather see him dead. 

After a decade in the making, the film has now made bank for the brothers, who wrote the screenplay alongside Ronald Bronstein. Multiple nominations from the Film Independent Spirit Awards, New York Film Critics Circle Awards, National Board of Review, and Gotham Awards, have sent audiences flocking to theaters.

The result is that Uncut Gems has already managed to surpass the million-dollar threshold on just the five screens it has been shown on. 

To date, the Safdies’ 2017 film, Good Times, is their most successful picture, having grossed $4.1 million, with the box office haul from Uncut Gems sure to outdo that when it officially opens this week.

Did Adam Sandler just win dad of the year?

As is traditional in the Jewish religion, when a girl turns 12-years-old she celebrates her Bat Mitzvah. The ceremony commemorates her becoming a woman in the eyes of the community and is usually celebrated with a grand party.

And so when it came time for the Hotel Transylvania: Summer Vacation actor’s daughter to have her own Bat Mitzvah, he made sure she knew that “she will be loved.”

During an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, Sandler revealed that he wanted to do something special for his Sadie’s big day — so he asked Adam Levine if he would perform!

“I don’t know why I did it,” Sandler said. “Then you see the dot dot dot. Immediately, I’m like, ‘Oh, he got it. He’s about to say something.’”

Of course the Maroon 5 frontman said yes!

“They played three great songs,” Sandler continued. “It was the coolest thing, man.”

It’s all for “girls like you,” Sadie!

Saturday Night Live is usually full of laughs, but this past episode included a few tears, as well.

Adam Sandler returned to the SNL stage for the first time in 24 years as he took on the role of host.

During his time at 30 Rock, Sandler worked alongside Beverley Hills Ninja actor Chris Farley.

Three years after being dismissed from the sketch show, at the same time as the Water Boy star, Farley sadly died as the result of an overdose.

Sandler has also been known for writing songs (his Chanukkah ones being particularly famous), and so he chose his SNL hosting debut to pay tribute to his late friend and co-star through his musical talents.

The moving and somber lyrics include: “Hey buddy, life’s moved on but you still bring us so much joy / Make my kids laugh with your YouTube clips or Tommy Boy / And when they ask me who’s the funniest guy I ever knew / I tell ’em hands down without a doubt it’s you.”

We hope the audience had tissues.

He began as a writer before moving to the stage a year later as a member of the cast — a position he served in until 1995.

The young actor then went on to star in many comedies, write, produce, and become a household name in Hollywood.

Now, he’s going back to where it all began.

For the first time in 24 years, Adam Sandler will be returning to the set of SNL. But this time, as host.

“We are happy to welcome Adam back to SNL in what is sure to be a special night,” said executive producer Lorne Michaels.

It seems kind of crazy that in all this time, Sandler has never hosted the sketch show, where he portrayed the characters of Opera Man and Hank Gelfand, and performed “The Chanukkah Song.”

But all that is about to change on the 4th of May when the 52-year-old will make his hosting debut.

He will be joined by Shawn Mendes who will be making his second appearance as the musical guest.
