Sandler will star as an American basketball scout who is unjustly fired after discovering a once-in-a-lifetime player abroad. He then decides to bring the player to the U.S. to prove that they both have what it takes to make it in the NBA.
The film was originally developed by Legendary in 2018, but the rights eventually made their way to Netflix. Netflix and Sandler have recently extended their partnership by committing to produce together four more films that will be distributed exclusively on the platform.
Sandler and Netflix's most recent collaboration is on the family film "Hubie Halloween", in which Sandler stars alongside Kevin James, Ray Liotta, Maya Rudolph and Shaquille O'Neal.
Sandler is also weighing several options, according to sources, and he may shoot another movie before "Hustle" if the right opportunity presents itself.
