Adam Sandler writing, producing and starring in new animated movie

May 26, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Adam Sandler is teaming up with STX Entertainment to write, produce and star in a new animated feature film, Variety is reporting. Plot details for the project are being kept under wraps.

“As we continue to grow our company, the family arena is of critical importance to STX Entertainment and we are tremendously excited to have Adam Sandler and Happy Madison developing projects with us for the global animation market,” states Adam Fogelson, chairman of the STX Entertainment Motion Picture Group. “Happy Madison is one of the most consistently successful and talented producers of family entertainment working in the business today. They have steadily been building this brand in this arena for years with the incredible success of the ‘Hotel Transylvania’ animated franchise. Adam already has some wonderful ideas about what he wants to develop with us and we look forward to working with him, Allen Covert and the entire Happy Madison team.”

Sandler – who is currently two films into his four-film deal with Netflix following The Ridiculous 6 and the upcoming The Do-Over – has enjoyed big success with his last two animated features, Hotel Transylvania and Hotel Transylvania 2, which have earned over $825 million around the globe.
