‘Hubie Halloween’ First Trailer Sees Adam Sandler Stopping Monsters

Netflix has released the trailer for the upcoming thriller-comedy film “Hubie Halloween” starring Adam Sandler. The family comedy film will arrive on Netflix on October 7.

Sandler stars in “Hubie Halloween” as Hubie DuBois, a well-intentioned but dopey and frequently-mocked community volunteer who thanklessly spends every Halloween making sure the residents of his hometown, Salem, celebrate safely and play by the rules. But this year, an escaped criminal and a mysterious new neighbor have Hubie on high alert. When people start disappearing, it’s up to Hubie to convince the police (Kevin James, Kenan Thompson) and townsfolk that the monsters are real, and only he can stop them.

Sandler stars in “Hubie Halloween” alongside Kevin James, Julie Bowen, Ray Liotta, Maya Rudolph, Rob Schneider, Kenan Thompson, Steve Buscemi, Michael Chiklis, Tim Meadows, Noah Schnapp, Paris Berelc, China Anne McClain, and Shaquille O’Neal. The film marks Sandler’s first film with Bowen in over two decades; the duo last starred as love interests in 1996’s “Happy Gilmore.”

“Hubie Halloween” is the latest in a long line of films that have spawned from the Netflix deal Sandler signed in 2014. The first film out of the Sandler-Netflix partnership was “The Ridiculous 6” in 2015, which was followed by “The Do-Over,” “Sandy Wexler,” “The Week Of,” “Murder Mystery,” and standup special “100% Fresh.” Sandler’s “Murder Mystery,” in which he starred opposite Jennifer Aniston.
