Classic Adam Sandler films confirmed to be getting another sequel from Netflix - as key cast tipped to return

Adam Sandler is getting the band back together (again) for Grown Ups 3.

Fresh off of the success of Happy Gilmore 2, Sandler is once again teaming up with Netflix to release another sequel to one of his best loved and most successful film series.

The first two Grown Ups films tell the story of Sandler and his group of school friends who reunite in their middle age to try and recapture their youth following the death of a former mentor.

The third film is rumoured to be reuniting the cast of both previous entries including Chris Rock, Kevin James, David Spade, Selma Hayek, Maria Bello and Maya Rudolph, though Netflix hasn't confirmed any casting as of yet.

We do know that Grown Ups 3 will see Sandler once again team up with director Kyle Newacheck, who previously directed both Murder Mystery 2 and Happy Gilmore 2 for Netflix.

The plot of the threequel is under wraps but if previous Sandler sequels are a sign of what to expect there will surely be a revolving door of random celebrity cameos alongside the gang's zany antics.

Despite some rough reviews from critics, both Grown Ups films were a success at the box office grossing a combined $500+ million.

The film will mark the most recent collaboration between Sandler and Netflix, a partnership that has yielded some big hits for both the actor and the streamer including last years Happy Gilmore sequel, which garnered 46.7 million views in three days when it released in July.

Netflix hasn't released any details about the plot or release date for the film but we do know we can expect maximum silliness whenever it is released.
