Spaceman Teaser Trailer Sets Release Date for Adam Sandler Netflix Movie

Netflix has released the first Spaceman teaser trailer for its upcoming sci-fi drama, starring Adam Sandler as an astronaut. The video provides a first look at Sandler’s character as he wanders through the forest located on a mysterious planet. The film is scheduled to make its debut on March 1, 2024.

During an interview with Tudum, director Johan Renck teased Sandler’s unexpected leading performance. “I really wanted to have a performance from him that had nothing to do with the Adam Sandler we all know,” Renck said. “I don’t think people understand how [although] he may come across as funny and sweet and all that, he’s very intelligent, really smart, profound.”
