The second movie project between Uncut Gems’ Josh Safdie and Adam Sandler will begin production on September 25. This comes after nearly a year since the sports card collecting movie was acquired by Netflix, where Sandler currently has a four-picture deal.
The movie will star Adam Sandler, Ben Affleck, Megan Thee Stallion, Gael Garcia Bernal, and Steve Harvey.
“Set in the world of high-end sports card collecting in the 1990s, a retired Baseball pitcher (Affleck) attempts a comeback as a sports memorabilia agent (Sandler) attempts to capitalize on his success,” reads the synopsis. “Megan Thee Stallion is said to play Affleck’s girlfriend.”
