Bruh, Netflix is not fucking around. Just days after announcing its first original film, the company has announced an exclusive four-movie deal with Adam Sandler. None of the movies have been cemented yet, but Sandler will commit to staring and producing (via Happy Madison) each one, with the first possibly set to arrive in 2015.
Yeah, it's easy to make fun of Sandler's movie choices. But the dude brings in guap—worldwide his films have grossed nearly $4billion—and that isn't going to change if his movies are exclusive to streaming. According to Sandler, though, the deal didn't have anything to do with money, at least on his end.
"When these fine people came to me with an offer to make four movies for them, I immediately said 'yes' for one reason and one reason only... Netflix rhymes with 'wet chicks.'" Sandler said. "Let the streaming begin!"
And let the takeover continue.
