Adam Sandler gets joined by stellar co-actors in his latest Netflix project – ‘Hustle’ where he plays the role of a basketball scout. The new members of the star cast include Oscar nominated actress Queen Latifah (Chicago, Hollywood), Academy Award winner Robert Duvall (Widows, The Judge) and Ben Foster (The Mechanic, Six Feet Under, Freaks and Geeks, Leave No Trace) among others.
‘Hustle’ on Netflix is the story of an unsuccessful, down on luck basketball scout who discovers a phenomenal player with some rocky past abroad and decides to bring him to US without the team’s approval. With just one chance in hand they must prove that they deserve to be a part of NBA.

‘Hustle’ is being directed by Jeremiah Zagar while Sandler is producing the film through his Happy Madison banner alongside LeBron James’ The SpringHill Company and Roth/Kirschenbaum Films. The screenplay for Netflix’s Hustle has been written by Taylor Materne and Oscar nominee Will Fetters.
