It’s a curious thing, this multi-project, recently extended Adam Sandler-Netflix deal. The fact that the comedian has made a choice to move his schtick from theatres to a streaming platform might suggest an awareness of its dwindling appeal as traditional releases. Signing up to create Netflix Originals means Sandler can continue to turn a profit by churning out what is essentially the same content, over and over again. For its part, Netflix gets to work with one of the most recognizable names in film, and can use this content as part of its very clear push to cater for as wide a range of viewers as possible. So, the streaming channel is now announcing the latest movie to form part of this deal – and it’s called The Week Of.
The film be directed by Robert Smigel (Saturday Night Live), from a script he co-wrote with Adam Sandler.
