PHILADELPHIA — Philadelphia on Tuesday night rolled out the red carpet for Adam Sandler. The actor’s new movie “Hustle” was shot in the City of Brotherly and Eyewitness News was at the screening on the eve of the film’s Netflix release.
There was a full house, complete with a red carpet at the Philadelphia Film Center on Tuesday for the premiere of “Hustle,” a movie directed by Philly native Jeremiah Zagar and starring Sandler with lots of Philly cameos all to tell a story with this beautiful city almost serving as it’s a muse.“He wanted to make it as Philly as possible,” Sandler said.
In the film, Sandler is a scout for the Philadelphia 76ers. He’s married to Queen Latifah and they have a daughter. His job sees him frequently traveling and rarely at home. On one of his scouting trips, he discovers a talented Spanish player who he wants the Sixers to draft — that’s all Eyewitness News is giving away, but Philadelphian fans will recognize this guy.“Oh man, it was a dream come true,” Sixers forward Tobias Harris said. “I never really had acting aspirations as a kid.
