Netflix has confirmed that it is developing Grown Ups 3<\/a> with Adam Sandler<\/a>, over a decade after the previous film<\/a>. Netflix announced the news<\/a> at its upfront presentation and revealed that Grown Ups 3 will be directed by Kyle Newacheck, who directed Sandler in last year’s Happy Gilmore 2<\/a>. The script will be penned by Sandler and Tim Herlihy, who has been a frequent writing partner for Sandler since the 90s. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Plot details and casting are under wraps, but it wouldn’t be surprising if this is a priority for Netflix given the success of Happy Gilmore 2<\/a>. That film had the biggest U.S. opening weekend for any Netflix film, showing how big of an asset Sandler and his IPs are for the streamer.<\/p>\n

Grown Ups<\/a> was released in 2010 and stars Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade, and Rob Schneider as a group of old friends reuniting during Fourth of July weekend with their families. Although the film was critically panned (we gave it a 4\/10<\/a>), it was a box office hit and spawned a financially successful sequel in 2013. A third Grown Ups movie has been teased as a possibility numerous times over the years, but nothing was ever formally announced.<\/p>\n
