I am a big fan of Adam Sandler but even wouldn’t describe him as restrained. But that is the word I would use to describe the teaser forSpaceman,his upcomingNetflixmovie.

Ok maybe that’s a bit harsh. The man may be known for shouty humour but in fairness, he is also an excellent dramatic actor. Anyone who has seenUncut GemsorThe Meyerowitz Storieswill know that he’s not just aHappy Gilmoretype figure.

So what’s Spaceman all about? Well, the teaser (below) gives us very little to go on but Netflix has provided its own synopsis.

It certainly sounds like nothing I’ve ever seen before, and the vibe of the trailer has definitely got me interested. Netflix has confirmed the film is set to hit thestreaming serviceon the 1st of March 2024.

Sandler has been on a roll of late while working with Netflix. 2023 has seen him score critical and commercial success with the likes ofLeoandYou Are So Not Invited to my Bat Mitzvah,so hopefullySpacemancan help make it a very unusual hat trick.

If you want to get a grip on the story before then, it is based on a book,Spaceman of Bohemiaso check it out, just don’t spoil anything for others.
