He may be the funniest man on screen, but in real life, Hollywood actor Adam Sandler is quite a serious guy. In Cancun, Mexico for a press meet, Sandler says he wants to make more time for his family, and has had his share of big laughs as a kid.
“I would do John Wayne. And a couple other old-timers, but then, when I would put the babushka on my head and come in as my grandmother … that always brought the house down.”
As the 44-year-old actor prepares to play the role of his own twin sister in the upcoming film Jack & Jill, will he be doing impressions of his family to get the act right? “No. No. No. Mostly because I love them, and a lot of them also would hit me. My sister is stronger than me and my brother is bigger than me. Even though my father’s no more, I have a fear of the ghost coming back and beating the shit out of me, so I just stay as nice as I can,” he says.
