Adam Sandler is Leo in trailer for Netflix animated musical comedy

October 14, 2023 by Gary Collinson

Ahead of its premiere next month, Netflix has released a new trailer for the upcoming animated Adam Sandler musical comedy Leo.

The feature follows Leo, 74-year-old lizard (voiced by Sandler) who has spent decades of his life in a terrarium with his friend Squirtle, a turtle, inside a Florida classroom and decides to break free and experience the world outside when he learns he only has a year left to live. Watch the trailer below…

 

Actor and comedian Adam Sandler (Hotel Transylvania, The Wedding Singer) delivers signature laughs in this coming-of-age animated musical comedy about the last year of elementary school – as seen through the eyes of a class pet. Jaded 74-year-old lizard Leo (Sandler) has been stuck in the same Florida classroom for decades with his terrarium-mate turtle (Bill Burr). When he learns he only has one year left to live, he plans to escape to experience life on the outside but instead gets caught up in the problems of his anxious students — including an impossibly mean substitute teacher. It ends up being the strangest but most rewarding bucket list ever…

Leo features the voice talents of Adam Sandler, Bill Burr, Cecily Strong, Jason Alexander, Rob Schneider, Sadie Sandler, Sunny Sandler, Jackie Sandler, Heidi Gardner, Nick Swardson, Nicholas Turturro, Robert Smigel, Jo Koy, and Stephanie Hsu.

Leo arrives on Netflix on November 21st.
