(WATCH) Adam Sandler Spotted in Philly Before He Starts Filming New Movie!
Ah! I love when movies film in Philly, which means big stars are in town! A local Philly girl, Gemma spotted Adam at Geno’s and was so exciting she chased him down. Ha! He not only rolled down the window, but was so nice and told them to take a pic.
My friend Hughe Dillion aka PhillyChitChat has ALL the details of the new movie Adam is filming:
Adam Sandler is in town to film a movie with LeBron James called “Hustle” the film will be directed by Philly filmmaker Jeremiah Zagar, the son of the artist who made Philadelphia’s Magic Gardens, Isaiah Zagar. (He also did a doc about his dad, which I loved) Sandler appeared on Jimmy Kimmel earlier this week to reveal his new look for the movie, a beard. He told Jimmy “I’m getting ready to do a basketball movie, a scout movie where I’m playing an NBA scout and I discover a player in Spain and I bring him to America. It’s that kind of story, it’s going to be really cool,” Sandler said.
It will feature Philadelphia born Kyle Lowry (plays for Toronto Raptors) who will do a “quick little thing”, Sandler said, along with “loads of NBA guys in it.”
