Adam Sandler has been making audiences laugh since his debut SNL. They like his comedies Billy Madison Yes Happy Gilmore have become classics and continues to deliver comedy films that appeal to audiences thanks to its partnership with Netflix. But Sandler also delivers dramatic performances from time to time and after the release of his critically acclaimed basketball movie. Febrile activitythe actor reflected on how this has affected the type of film he wants to make in the future.
In a recent interview with AARPSandler he talked about how he handles negative reviews and was asked if he would prefer to do drama or comedy at this point in his career. Sandler expressed his love for both of them and how all of their projects presented a new challenge, saying:
I’ve been doing both for a long time. When I went to NYU, I shot a lot of dramatic, not funny, scenes. Punch-Drunk Love was 20 years ago. It was different and exciting. I like to take on a new challenge. Sometimes I feel like I’m exhausted with new thoughts, then suddenly something new pops up and I say, ‘Okay, how do I make this happen?’ It has been amazing to push myself in new ways like I did in Uncut Gems. Racing around New York’s Diamond District, the intensity of this incredible character, or in Hustle, being surrounded by the best players in the NBA and not so much concerned with laughter as with what each character faces and fights for. But I love comedy more than anything else.
clearly the uncut precious stones star is always open to a creatively fulfilling new project and likes to use his days at New York University to learn more about his dramatic work. Critically acclaimed filmmakers such as Paul Thomas Anderson and Safdie Brothers witnessed serious dramatic performances in the comedian and set him up for success. Sandler’s acting skills earned him an Independent Spirit Award for his work on uncut precious stonesand was nominated for a Golden Globe for drunk love.
I am glad that Sandler is interested in new projects that allow him to explore his range as an actor and, as a result, takes on many different roles. He proves it when he ventures into another serious role alongside Paul Dano and Carey Mulligan Astronaut. She will play Jakub, a Czech orphan who defies all odds to become his country’s first astronaut. The film is currently in post-production and is slated for release in 2023. The cast and premise look super interesting and may just be one of Adam Sandler’s best projects to date.
However, that doesn’t mean Sandler is giving up on his acting career. He is Adam Sandler’s first love and plans to remain a staple of burlesque. He will be working with his longtime friend Jennifer Anistion again in murder mystery 2and the recently completed production a You too are NOT invited to my Bat Mitzvah! Both films will be available to Netflix subscribers in the near future.
