Adam Sandler, known for his roles in "Hustle" (2022), "Grown Ups", (2010), "Blended" (2014), "Happy Gilmore" (1996), "Big Daddy" (1999), and more, is a busy man. The 56-year-old actor is still working on several acting projects and is even headlining his very own comedy tour.
Ahead of his upcoming tour, the actor is putting his health first, undergoing hip surgery and now needing to walk with a cane.
Adam Sandler Spotted Walking With a Cane
Adam Sandler was visiting L.A.'s Pacific Palisades neighborhood this past weekend with his wife, Jackie. As the couple walked around the neighborhood, it wasn't hard to miss Sandler heavily utilizing a cane to get around.
According to sources, Sandler has been using a cane for the last few weeks, as he recently underwent hip surgery around Labor Day.
Luckily, it seems this was a scheduled surgery and was not caused by a sudden injury or medical emergency. The "Grown Ups" actor is currently between projects, so undergoing the hip surgery now made the most sense.
He is on his way to a speedy recovery as the "Big Daddy" actor is expected to be fully healed before his upcoming comedy tour kicks off in late October.

Other guests fans would love to see pop up on Sandler's 2022 comedy tour include "Grown Ups" co-stars Chris Rock and David Spade, Mike Myers, and Kevin Nealson.
Adam Sandler’s 2022 comedy tour kicks off on October 21 in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and will visit a total of 15 cities, including Boston, Massachusetts, Atlantic City, New Jersey, Tampa, Florida, and more.
