Adam Sandler to Produce and Star in Four Movies for Netflix


Snagging one of the world's best-known Hollywood stars, Netflix has signed a deal to make four feature films with Adam Sandler as the streaming service continues its empire building and moves into producing original movies that bypass the usual theatrical release.

Sandler's Happy Madison Productions will work alongside Netflix in developing the yet-to-be announced titles, which will premiere exclusively in the nearly 50 countries where Netflix operates. It's a significant move for Sandler, a longtime denizen of the Hollywood studio system -- a system wedded to playing films first in theaters, not in the home. He'll both star in and produce the Netflix projects.

"When these fine people came to me with an offer to make four movies for them, I immediately said yes for one reason and one reason only - Netflix rhymes with Wet Chicks," Sandler said in a statement. "Let the streaming begin!!!!"

Netflix is prepared to pony up as much as the majors studios do for a Sandler film, which, on average, costs in the $80 million range. Blended, his most recent comedy, was an exception, with a production budget of $40 million. The actor's films, most of them comedies, have grossed more than $3 billion globally. And his films consistently rank among the most viewed by Netflix members, both in the U.S. and overseas.

There is No God: Netflix Doubles Down on Adam Sandler With New Four-Film Deal


Netflix is staying in the Adam Sandler business. The company has inked a new four-film deal with Sandler to create original projects for its streaming service. Sandler’s Happy Madison Productions will produce each film, which will premiere exclusively on the streaming service.

Netflix first inked a four-film deal with Sandler in October 2014. The first two films released under that deal — The Ridiculous 6 and The Do-Over — are the biggest film releases ever for the service.

"Adam Sandler is one of the leading comedians in the film world, and his movies have proven to be extremely successful with our subscribers around the world,” said Ted Sarandos, Netflix chief content officer. “We are thrilled at the opportunity to extend our partnership with Adam and his entire team at Happy Madison and keep the world laughing.”

The third film under Sandler's Netflix deal, Sandy Wexler is set to launch on the streaming platform on April 14. The romantic comedy set in the Los Angeles in the '90s stars Jennifer Hudson, Kevin James, Terry Crews, Lamorne Morris, Nick Swardson, Rob Schneider and Jane Seymour.

2nd Teaser Trailer for Karate Kid TV Sequel COBRA KAI

 
Anyone watching the Alienist on TNT?

The setting and costumes are really good. The fact that it is a period piece makes it worth watching for the production.

The story is actually pretty meh. Its a typical whodunit. The first couple of episodes were good but its becoming too much like CSI and Bones.

good acting and visuals, meh story.

Jessica Alba to Star Alongside Gabrielle Union in NBC's BAD BOYS Spinoff

dykgyTW.jpg


NBC's untitled Bad Boys spinoff just added some big star power. In one of the biggest castings of the season, Jessica Alba has signed on as the co-lead in the network's drama pilot starring Gabrielle Union.

The drama revolves around free-spirited former DEA agent Syd Burnett (Union, reprising her role from Bad Boys II), who has a fresh start in her new job as an LAPD detective. She is partnered with Nancy McKenna (Alba), a working mom who can't help but look at Syd's freedom with some grass-is-greener envy. These two have totally different lifestyles and approaches, but they both are at the top of their fields in the action-packed, character-driven procedural.

Alba's Nancy joined the Army out of high school and spent most of the 2000s in Iraq and Afghanistan. Women weren't allowed in combat so she joined the military police to get closer to the action and is now a detective raising two preteen step-kids with her husband. Alba, who received multiple offers this pilot season, will also be credited as an exec producer on the potential series.

The untitled drama was written by Brandon Sonnier and Brandon Margolis (The Blacklist), who exec produce alongside Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman, KristieAnne Reed, Jeff Gaspin, Jeff Monroe, Doug Belgrad and Union. Anton Cropper will direct the pilot and also receive EP credit. The drama hails from Sony Pictures Television Studios, Jerry Bruckheimer Television, Primary Wave and 2.0 Entertainment. (Sony's Columbia produced the original features alongside Bruckheimer and Belgrand.)

The casting, which helps push the procedural to the top of NBC's drama pilots, marks Alba's first TV series regular role since her Golden Globe-winning role in Fox's Dark Angel. Her feature credits include Fantastic Four and Sin City.

I have all the episodes but haven't finished episode one yet. If what you say that it's like CSI, I'm okay with The Alienist being a procedural.
 
So apparently, FOX shows are being phased out at Netflix. Some contract mumbo jumbo bullshit.

This includes "Archer". No more "Archer" on Netflix as of March 18th. That fucking sucks.

On the bright side, a new season of "Mike Tyson Mysteries" begins on March 4th.

Heard about that a while ago. Every fucker now wants to start their own service up. The Disney buyout probably would have meant this happened eventually anyway.

But Archer is still going to be somewhere, right?

That's all I care about, as long as it doesn't end up on a network that plants a huge watermark across a quarter of the screen.

It is all on Hulu from what I can see.
