Adam Sandler Teams Up with Netflix for 4 More Films: 'Our Members Love All Things Sandler'

Adam Sandler’s relationship with Netflix is only just beginning.

Among the four films will be an animated movie that Sandler will reportedly write, produce and star in.

In its announcement on Friday, Netflix said, “Our members love all things Sandler. They have spent a whopping two billion hours watching his films since 2015 — the year thatThe Ridiculous 6premieres — proving there’s no such thing as too much Sandler.”

Netflix has already extended its deal with the comedian twice before: first in 2014, Sandler signed on to a four-movie deal with the first film released beingThe Ridiculous 6.
