Sandler recently appeared in the Netflix movie, "You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah" alongside his wife, Jackie, and their daughters, Sadie, 17, and Sunny, 14.

Following the film's release in August, there was a reignited debate on nepotism in Hollywood due to the actor's daughters' starring roles.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the movie's director, Sammi Cohen, commented on the "nepo baby" debate, stating, "What I say is, he’s still making movies with his friends, but they’re his kids."

Cohen added, “He is the kind of dad who’s also your best friend. When it comes to the sort of chatter we’re hearing online, I don’t really think twice about it because I’m going like, ‘Yeah, he’s doing the same thing he’s always done."

"You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah," based on author Fiona Rosenbloom's 2005 novel of the same name, was met with mostly positive reviews on its release, with many praising Sandler's performance and his usual wit and humor.

The official movie synopsis read, "Stacy and Lydia are BFFs who’ve always dreamed about having epic bat mitzvahs. But things start to go comically awry when a popular boy and middle school drama threaten their friendship and their rite of passage."
