Adam Sandler’s “Happy Gilmore 2″ is headed to Netflix in July, but before then, he’s working on another movie filming in New Jersey.
Sandler, who filmed extensively in the Garden State for his celebrity-packed golf comedy sequel, apparently liked being here so much he decided to go another round.
The actor and comedian is producing a Netflix film starring his teen daughter Sadie Sandler.
The untitled film, currently known as “Untitled Roommates Project,” is going into production this summer and looking for New Jersey extras and background actors.
Grant Wilfley Casting tells NJ Advance Media that the production needs people to play college and high school students.

The comedy, which is filming in Jersey from late June to August, will be directed by Chandler Levack (“I Like Movies”) and star Sadie Sandler, 19, and Chloe East, 24.
East had a memorable role playing Sister Paxton in the intense 2024 horror film “Heretic” alongside Sophie Thatcher and Hugh Grant. She also appeared in Steven Spielberg’s “The Fabelmans” (2022).

The Sandler sisters appear in many of their father’s films, but have increasingly been stepping into the spotlight with starring roles.
Both Sadie and Sunny, 16, starred in the 2023 Netflix movie “You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah,” written by Alison Peck (based on the YA novel by Amanda Stern, writing as Fiona Rosenbloom) and directed by Sammi Cohen.
Adam Sandler produced the well-received comedy.
