Adam Sandler can't resist casting his nepo daughters! Teens Sunny and Sadie have starring roles in the new Happy Gilmore 2 - and have appeared in at least 20 of the actor's films
Adam Sandler delighted fans with the recent release of Happy Gilmore 2, but he wasn't the only Sandler entertaining viewers. The American actor's two daughters with his wife, Jackie, Sadie, 19, and Sunny, 16, were also stars of the new Netflix comedy film, which followed the golfer's life after his Tour Championship win. However, it's far from the their first time on a film set, because the two have starred in many of their father's much-loved productions. It's not just recent roles either. The pair have collaborated with their father from a very young age, with Sadie appearing in the 2008 film Don't Mess with the Zohan at two years old. Throughout their childhood, the duo has gone on to star in tens of their father's films, including Grown Ups, Hotel Transylvania, and Jack and Jill. In the second Happy Gilmore film, Adam's children took centre stage, with Sadie playing Charlotte, a woman Happy meets in a group therapy session, and his youngest playing his on-screen daughter, Charlotte Gilmore. However, Sunny and Sadie didn't always secure such high-flying roles, and they have previously made such small cameos that even the die-hard Sandler fans might struggle to spot them. Here, Femail delves into the very starry careers of Sunny and Sadie at just 16 and 19 years old. Adam Sandler isn't the only star in his family, and his daughters, Sadie and Sunny Sandler, are becoming breakout stars in their own right, thanks to their father casting them in many of his most famous productions (pictured: Sunny in You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah) 19-year-old Sadie hasn't experienced a typical childhood, and she made her first film debut as a toddler in her father's 2008 movie, Don't Mess with the Zohan, where she played the Girl Riding On Goat. Then, she starred as the Sweetest Medieval Girl of All Time in 2008's Bedtime Stories and was Tardio's daughter in Grown Ups. In 2011's smash hit comedy Just Go with It, with Jennifer Aniston, Sadie played a girl on the rope bridge. That same year, she starred as the little girl on the ship in the comedy film Jack and Jill. In 2012, she undertook the role of the lemonade stand kid in That's My Boy and voiced young Mavis in Hotel Transylvania, which included Selena Gomez as the teen Mavis. One year later, she played Sadie Tardio in Grown Ups 2, and the year after, she was a little league announcer in Blended. In 2015, she starred in three major film productions: Pixels, Hotel Transylvania 2 and The Ridiculous 6. After that, she was in The Do-Over, Sandy Wexler, The Week Of, and Hotel Transylvania 3 over the next few years. Sunny Sandler (seen in You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah) has worked with her father since she was a toddler Sunny took on the role of her her father's on-screen daughter, Charlotte Gilmore, in Happy Gilmore 2 (pictured) The 19-year-old starred as Charlotte in her father's recent Netflix hit - Happy Gilmore 2 (pictured) In 2019, she worked alongside her father and Jennifer Aniston in Murder Mystery as Summer. After that, the budding actress worked as part of the cast for The Wrong Missy and Hubie Halloween. In a recent film, You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah, she took on a bigger role as Ronnie Friedman before voicing a character in the 2023 film Leo and starring in Happy Gilmore 2. Meanwhile, her younger sister Sunny has also taken on a slew of impressive acting roles from a young age. Adam and Jackie Sandler welcomed Sunny into the world on November 2, 2008 - five months after Sadie made her big screen debut. Two years later, Sunny made her debut in the 2010 blockbuster Grown Ups as Tardio's daughter and has since added over a dozen film credits. In 2011, Sunny appeared alongside her older sister in Just Go with It as part of the family who appeared on the rope bridge, and in Jack and Jill as a little girl. A few years later, the 16-year-old starred in That's My Boy, Grown Ups 2, Blended and lent her voice to Hotel Transylvania. The young stars have appeared in their father's show from a young age (seen centre and right in The Wrong Missy Pictured: (L-R) Sadie Sandler, Jackie Sandler, Adam Sandler and Sunny Sandler at the premiere of Netflix's Leo in Los Angeles in 2023 Pictured: (L to R ) Sunny Sandler as Stacy Friedman, Samantha Lorraine as Lydia Rodriguez Katz, Sadie Sandler as Ronnie Friedman, Zaara Kuttemperoor as Zaara, Idina Menzel as Bree Friedman and Adam Sandler as Danny Friedman in You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah In addition to You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah (pictured), Sunny has starred in a string of other successful Hollywood films 2015 saw Sunny work across three films, Pixels, Hotel Transylvania 2, and The Ridiculous 6. She later appeared in The Do-Over as Lola, in The Week of as Eva, and in Hotel Transylvania 3. In 2019 and 2020, Sunny joined her father and sister on Murder Mystery and The Wrong Missy. She then starred in Hubie Halloween as Cooky, in Hustle as a young girl, before taking on a leading role in Netflix's You're So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah and Happy Gilmore 2. The Happy Gilmore sequel, directed by Kyle Newacheck, also starred original cast members Christopher McDonald, Julie Bowen, and Ben Stiller. Other notable names in the film included Goldie Hawn, Ben Stiller, Kevin Nealon, Ken Jennings, and Benny Safdie. Eminem, Cam'ron and Post Malone are among the notable musicians who are in the cast, according to the streaming service. The sports comedy also features dozens of cameos from prominent celebrities across multiple fields, such as NFL standout and Taylor Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and former NFL standout and Kim Kardashian's ex, Reggie Bush. The world of golf is also well-represented, with a number of prominent golf players in the film. They include Paige Spiranac, John Daly, Bryson DeChambeau, Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler, among others. Professional wrestling fans will also be pleased to see cameos from stars such as Nikki Bella, Maxwell Jacob Friedman and Becky Lynch. Elsewhere, Adam Sandler fans are also only just finding out that he has starred alongside his wife Jackie Sandler in over 20 of his films. The Uncut Gems actor, 58, has made a conscious effort to appear alongside his other half over the past two decades, with many cinemagoers keeping an eye out for her cameos, which they've likened to Easter eggs. Jackie, 50, has appeared in several of Adam's movies, including 50 First Dates (2004), where she played a dentist, I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry (2007), in which she was a teacher, and Grown Ups (2010), where she played Richie Minervini's on-screen wife. Despite frequently having to watch Adam kiss other women on set, the producer insists his wife doesn't get jealous of his on-screen romances. 'The only awkward part is hearing my wife on the side going, "Harder! Harder! Kiss her harder! Deeper," he told the Associated Press in 2019, while promoting his hit Netflix film, Murder Mystery, which he starred in alongside Jennifer Aniston.

It was the first time she had performed in the UK since 2019, aside from her performance at the Capital Summertime Ball with Barclaycard 2025. DIVA DEMANDS Mariah is notorious for her OTT behaviour and, ahead of her stint on-stage in London earlier this year, she lived up to expectations. Mariah Carey's biggest diva moments MARIAH Carey is known for her diva antics off-stage. Here we take a look at her most OTT moments. Kitten demand : In 2009, Mariah allegedly demanded a rider filled with 20 white kittens and 100 white doves before turning on Westfield's Christmas lights - a request that was denied by retail bosses : In 2009, Mariah allegedly demanded a rider filled with 20 white kittens and 100 white doves before turning on Westfield's Christmas lights - a request that was denied by retail bosses Birthday snub: Recently she said she shunned acknowledgment of her birthdays and said: "I don't count years, but I definitely rebuke them - I have anniversaries, not birthdays, because I celebrate life, darling." Recently she said she shunned acknowledgment of her birthdays and said: "I don't count years, but I definitely rebuke them - I have anniversaries, not birthdays, because I celebrate life, darling."

I know it's very Nineties." : Mariah previously said: "I have a rule which states that I will not be seen in fluorescent lighting without sunglasses. I know it's very Nineties." Show demand: ITV anchor Kate Garraway said that when she interviewed Mariah in 2009 the famous singer (and infamous diva) was LOWERED onto the GMTV sofa by two ITV producers so that she wouldn't crease her dress. She also had an assistant walk backwards in front of her at all times in case she fell over. As you do. Previously, it was revealed how US legend Mariah sleeps with a whopping 20 humidifiers in her room and how she allegedly demanded a rider filled with 20 white kittens and 100 white doves.

"Doesn't even have Capital branding anymore. It's all her zone." The We Belong Together hitmaker hit the stage donning a black playsuit with semi-sheer tights. She styled her hair poker-straight and accessorised with sparkling silver bangles and red lippie. Despite the London heat, she finished her look with a pair of thigh high boots and dark sunglasses. The star's diva demands and confessions have gone down in the showbiz history books. Recently she said she shunned acknowledgment of her birthdays and said: "I don't count years, but I definitely rebuke them - I have anniversaries, not birthdays, because I celebrate life, darling."

Edinburgh Fringe Comedy reviews: Rosie O'Donnell

Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... Rosie O'Donnell: Common Knowledge Gilded Balloon at Appleton Tower (Venue 140) ★★★★☆ Rosie O'Donnell begins her story with the death of her mother, when she was just 11 years old. 'It's not what you were expecting,' she tells the crowd. This is not stand-up, it's comedy storytelling which is slow and earnest, full of emotion, but also funny when it chooses to be. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Rosie O'Donnell: Common Knowledge | Steve Ullathorne It's a one woman show but Rosie's unseen co-star is Dakota, the child she adopted as a baby, who moved with her to Ireland and whose pronouncements on life often elicit the biggest laughs. Dakota, who is now known as Clay, is an autistic child with a huge vocabulary, an encyclopaedic knowledge and an insistence on telling the truth. Clay, in Rosie's telling, has an uncanny wisdom which acts as a chorus to the show. O'Donnell is a tremendous storyteller. She holds us in the palm of her hand as she tells us about her childhood, her five adopted children and her move to Ireland to escape the terror of Trump's America. In exile she discovers a very different response to her celebrity. And the difference for Clay, who is still at school, is eye opening. Rosie doesn't dwell on the world she's left behind, although she does share some very orange pictures she painted of her former president. The deranged tweet in which he threatens to remove her US citizenship is also shown. It would be wholly understandable if Rosie indulged in some Trump bashing – but she doesn't. Instead she pledges to find a better life for her and her child and to help other autistic kids. She's gentle, thoughtful, intelligent and wise with an ability to conjure emotion which is spellbinding. This isn't what anyone was expecting, but make no mistake about it, we are in the presence of an absolutely class act. CLAIRE SMITH until 10 August Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Alan Resnick: One Funny Hour Monkey Barrel Comedy (Venue 515) ★★★★☆ Alan Resnick seems like a nice guy, short, unprepossessing and slightly nebbish. He lets his shy tech open the show by performing an earnest-sounding poem. And yes, Resnick's potted overview of the various main kinds of comedy seems a bit insincere, spanning clowning, crowd work, edgy comedy and racist comedy, the latter deemed supreme despite his avowed detestation of racism, yet followed through in an arbitrary, but still hate-informed, way. And the mime of an outwardly unthreatening American man shooting everyone in the audience of his late-night basement show dead with dedicated precision might also be a bit upsetting for anyone not raised in a gun culture. Still, I thought I had an approximate handle on the sort of whimsical contrarianism that Resnick was bringing to Edinburgh for his debut, as I, like the rest of the crowd, accepted a non-disclosure form and was instructed to sign without reading. Mindful of the reviewer's responsibility to their readers, I only pretended to. Yet respect for the comedian's craft prohibits me from revealing too much more. Suffice to say, I found Resnick's analysis of one of the most spoken-about and pressing issues facing humanity initially interesting but increasingly yawn-inducing as it wore on, with him offering no quarter in the depth and detail of his visual lecture. Just as I was mentally writing the show off as pretentious, anti-comedy guff however, it happened. Did it justify everything that had come before? Yes. Is it escalating variations on the same joke for perhaps 20 minutes? I'll say yes because I lost track of time. Beyond the horrific Emperor's New Clothes aspect there are countless moral implications to Resnick's art that he simply glosses over, emboldened by his satirical, philosophical intent. Tedious, hilarious and awful, One Funny Hour is once seen, never forgotten. In your nightmares. JAY RICHARDSON until 24 August Michael Shafar – Inappropriate The Beehive Inn (Venue 178) ★★★☆☆ Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad When Shafar really gets going with this show it will be astounding. Right now it is a tantalising taste of an hour that drives across taboos like a combine harvester through comedy corn. He starts gently – why a white woman with a yoga mat in your area is a red flag and the bleakness of British children's fiction – but once he gets his teeth into autism, self diagnosis and white people's desperate need for hardship, he is on a real roll. He seems a little tentative with such strong material, but we are his first audience of the run. His is equal opportunity Sacred Cow slaughter. Immigration, racism, Jews driving German cars, KKK babysitters, the benefits of gay soldiers and why you should fly Emirates… there is enough here to upset half of Edinburgh and the fresh ideas just keep hitting us. Having said which, his idea for a way to replace gender reveal parties is a beaut and would probably be the fastest way to world peace ever to come out of a comedy festival. Still laughing at the Korean stuff… KATE COPSTICK until 25 August Ayo Adenekan: Black Mediocrity Monkey Barrel Comedy (Venue 338) ★★★☆☆ Ayo Adenekan's Fringe debut feels as if it's come at least a year too early, as the 23-year-old, 6'3' stand-up, who brings attention to his impressive wingspan, is stretching his material across an hour and can't quite do justice to all of his anecdotes. You get the excitement about him and his eagerness to launch himself onto this stage though, as his potential is undeniable. As a bisexual, slightly nerdy black man of Nigerian heritage who grew up in Edinburgh poshly educated, he has novelty, local knowledge and a number of identity issues tied to race, class, privilege and sexuality, the intersectional interplay of these rendering him distinct. Encompassing three years of his life, his casting in his school nativity play epitomises a tendency towards too much exposition in otherwise successful efforts to ingratiate himself with the crowd. Elsewhere, though, a shocking example of racism lands like a punch in the face, from out of the blue, in marked contrast to Adenekan's wry treatment of more insidious, micro-bigotry before it. The account pleads for more storytelling sophistication and he ought to rework it in the future. An emerging talent with innate likeability and presence, he's surely destined for greater things. JAY RICHARDSON until 24 August Catriona Dowden: Dance Like Everyone's Dancing Carbon (Venue 180) ★★★☆☆ Comedy that goes where no laughs have ever been got before is rarer than a bag of chips for under four quid in August, but Catriona gives us an hour of it. Her downbeat delivery and gentle-going-on-fragile demeanour are perfectly suited to her material, which plays ('riffs' seems too excitable a term to use) on medieval Anchoresses, dealing with apocalyptic thoughts, cruelty to 18th century pigeons and other animals and the devastating effects of feminism on the buoyancy of nuns. You simply will not get observational stand-up from a tiny, closed, onstage religious cell anywhere else. The section giving advice on acceptable wimpling manages to be absolutely hilarious as well as unexpectedly fascinating. This is cleverly constructed, properly thought through stuff, pretty much every turn and twist of the hour. There is a joke with a record-breakingly long set-up, quite a lot of information on vaginismus (stay with her, she keeps this section pretty tight...), St Vitus Dance, and how she and her sister became the Kneecap of NW Berkshire. We all leave knowing more about the inadequacies of 21st Century gynaecology than we had anticipated. Catriona might speak softly but she carries a big comedy stick. KATE COPSTICK until 24 August
