Adam Sandler Plays A Jaded Lizard In Netflix’s New Animated Movie, Leo

During New York Comic Con 2023 (NYCC 2023), Netflix has unveiled a new trailer for their upcoming animated movie, Leo.

Actor and comedian Adam Sandler (Hotel Transylvania, The Wedding Singer) delivers signature laughs in this coming-of-age animated musical comedy about the last year of elementary school – as seen through the eyes of a class pet. Jaded 74-year-old lizard Leo (Sandler) has been stuck in the same Florida classroom for decades with his terrarium-mate turtle (Bill Burr). When he learns he only has one year left to live, he plans to escape to experience life on the outside but instead gets caught up in the problems of his anxious students — including an impossibly mean substitute teacher. It ends up being the strangest but most rewarding bucket list ever.

Directed by Robert Marianetti, Robert Smigel, and David Wachtenheim, Leo also stars Cecily Strong, Jason Alexander, Sadie Sandler, Sunny Sandler, Rob Schneider, Jo Koy, Jackie Sandler, Heidi Gardner, Robert Smigel, Nick Swardson, Stephanie Hsu, and Nicholas Turturro.

Leo premieres on Netflix on 21 November 2023.
