This time around, Sandler's stacked the cast with returning ringers like Christopher 'Shooter McGavin' McDonald Ben Stiller and Julie Bowen as well as oddballs Eminem, Bad Bunny, Travis Kelce, Benny Safdie and Eric André. Jay Kelly is a return to the goofball's serious side. Noah Baumbach writes and directs this film (yes, film!) about Jay Kelly who 'everyone knows' but he 'doesn't know himself.' George Clooney, Laura Dern, Greta Gerwig, Isla Fisher and Patrick Wilson round out the A-List ensemble. Untitled Adam Sandler/Safdie Brothers project has been teased for years following the woulda been awards season powerhouse 'Uncut Gems.' The reported logline of this one — which would allegedly co-star Steve Harvey and Megan Thee Stallion — is 'set in the world of high-end sports card collecting in the 1990s, a retired baseball pitcher attempts a comeback as a sports memorabilia agent attempts to capitalize on his success.'
