Google PlayNetflix and Adam Sandler once again have something brewing.
On Tuesday, the streaming service shared a new trailer for its upcoming LeBron James-produced film, Hustle, starring Sandler as a basketball scout who discovers a potential superstar in Spain. The film is directed by Jeremiah Zagar and was written by Taylor Materne and Will Fetters.
“Love you all,” Sandler wrote on Instagram while sharing the new trailer.
Also starring Queen Latifah, Robert Duvall, and Ben Foster, the film sees Sandler as Stanley Sugarman, a scout for the Philadelphia 76ers, with appearances from some of the team’s stars including Tobias Harris, Matisse Thybulle, Tyrese Maxey, and head coach Doc Rivers. The new trailer features Sugarman admit that he wants to “coach someday,” and feeling like “nothing” after serving 30 years in the league.
“Being the guy who finds the guy matters in this business,” Sandler’s character says in the clip, as he juggles between supporting his own daughter and helping his in-the-making star support his own daughter.
The rated-R drama is yet another flick in Sandler’s ongoing extensive partnership with Netflix, where he’s already shared Happy Madison Productions films like Murder Mystery and Hubie Halloween. Sandler and Jennifer Aniston will also be returning to the platform for a sequel to Murder Mystery, with Jeremy Garelick tapped to direct. He’s previously written Aniston’s The Break-Up in ’06, and the new one will be one of four Netflix-ordered Sandler films ordered at the top of 2020.
Hustle premieres exclusively on Netflix on June 8. Check out the trailer up top.
