Don't mess with Sandler!

Judd Apatow and Adam Sandler have collaborated on the comedy 'You Don't Mess with the Zohan'.

Feb  7 2007

Fans of humourless comedy rejoice – Adam Sandler is set to star in a new feature entitled 'You Don't Mess with the Zohan'.

The 'Happy Gilmore' star has written the script with Judd Apatow ('The 40-Year-Old Virgin') and Robert Smigel, which follows the adventures of a Mossad agent who fakers his own death so he can move to New York and become a hair stylist.

Smigel is currently working on a re-write of the script, with cameras set to roll in New York and Los Angeles this summer.

Before then, Sandler will be seen in the comedy 'I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry' and the drama 'Reign Over Me'.
