He will write, produce, and star in the new animated movie. At this time, however, there are no details about the story or a supporting cast. The film also does not yet have a title.

Sandler is no stranger to animated movies, as he voiced the main characters in movies like Eight Crazy Nights and the Hotel Transylvania series for Sony. He also starred in the 2015 live-action/CG video game movie Pixels.

He is also in the middle of a four-movie deal with Netflix. The first film, The Ridiculous 6, came out in May 2015 and became the most-watched movie in the streaming company's history over its first 30 days. The next film, The Do-Over, which stars Sandler and David Spade, opens on May 27.
