The lead actor from this comedy is the iconic Adam Sandler, who has starred in a number of Hollywood films that have made us laugh, cry, or both at the same time.

In 1999 he even founded his own production company called Happy Madison.
At 53, Sandler doesn’t seem to have aged much. In his spare time he likes to play music and, after starring together with Jennifer Aniston in the popular Netflix film Murder Mystery and shining in Uncut Gems, Sandler is now working on new film projects. In fact, he just signed a new contract with Netflix to release 4 new movies.

In addition to playing Lucy in 50 First Dates, she and Adam Sandler have also made an excellent couple in other well-known romantic comedies like The Wedding Singer and Blended, which was produced by Happy Madison.
Not only does Barrymore stand out in her role as a comedian, but later in her career she also proved her versatility and talent as a director, producer, and even as a photographer.

On his website, Astin defines himself as an actor, director, producer, runner, activist, writer, husband, and father.

His latest project is still in the works — the highly anticipated Ghostbusters: Afterlife, often referred to as “Ghostbusters 3,” where he plays Dr. Raymond Stantz.

Allen Covert as Ten-Second Tom
