Sadie Sandler, 19, who happens to be the daughter of Adam Sandler, is appearing in a new movie, and her dad seems to be pretty darn proud.
“Sadie Sandler has a leading role in a new Netflix comedy produced by her father Adam Sandler,” according to People. Sadie, who is “the older of two daughters that Adam, 59, shares with wife Jackie Sandler,” appears in the film directed by Chandler Levack and penned by “Saturday Night Live” writers Jimmy Fowlie and Ceara O’Sullivan. It also stars Sarah Sherman, Natasha Lyonne, Nick Kroll, Chloe East, Storm Reid and, yes, Sadie’s famous father.
