Adam Sandler’s first Netflix movie hasn’t surfaced yet, but the prolific comic actor has already started putting together his next effort for the streaming service. It’s called The Do Over and will co-star Paula Patton and his Grown Ups co-star David Spade
The film will be directed by Steven Brill, who also directed Sandler in Mr. Deeds and Little Nicky. Deadline reports that the Chris Pappas and Kevin Barnett script is about two guys whose lives are terrible. So, they decide to fake their own deaths and steal two identities, only to discover that the people they now are had even worse lives.
Sandler signed a four-movie deal with Netflix in October. His first movie for the company will be The Ridiculous Six, which bounced between Paramount and Sony before landing at Netflix. The film has already stirred controversy due to its portrayal of Native Americans.
Patton was recently seen in Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, 2 Guns and About Last Night. She just finished Duncan Jones’ Warcraft movie for Legendary and Universal.
