Adam Sandler is hiring his two teenage daughters to star in a new Netflixmovie, and they are getting quite a payday!

According to legal documents, obtained by The Blast, Sadie and Sunny Sandler will be starring as Stacy and Ronnie Friedman in the upcoming film, 'You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah.' The Netflix film is an adaptation of a coming-of-age novel by the same name.

Adam's daughters are both minors (13,16) -- so a judge is required to sign off on their salaries and contracts -- even if their father's company is the one signing them up.

Now, let's be honest, neither of these young ladies needs any money from their movie careers to eat and sleep well. But, it's a great thing to see that their father is paying them like anyone else for their work as actresses. It's unclear if the amount is on par with what kind of role they are playing in the film. Either way, this appears to be a standard contract anyone would sign who is in the movie.

The best part is that one specific clause in the contract protects the actor from anyone in the production using their image for something like "drugs." Ya, kind of like a father, and we are guessing Adam is going to be extra careful with this one.

According to reports, the two girls will star alongside 'Frozen' star Idina Menzel -- who appeared alongside Sandler in 'Uncut Gems.' The movie will also feature 'Saturday Night Live'newcomer Sarah Sherman and 'Punch-Drunk Love' actor Luis Guzmán.

If you are unaware of the book, it takes place in the early-2000's and follows Stacey Friedman, who is preparing for an important moment in her life...her bat mitzvah. Of course, in the days leading up to the event, she's thrown for a loop after catching her best friend Lydia Katz kissing her crush, Andy Goldfarb. As you can imagine, the emotions of the moment drive her to blurt out the title of the movie.

We can't wait! Just put a little away for that college fund!
