Hubie Halloween brings Sandler back to his comedic wheelhouse, where he plays Hubie himself, a good-natured, but eccentric volunteer who’s mocked by both the kids and adults in Salem, Massachusetts and finds himself at the center of a murder investigation on Halloween night.
That marks two murder mystery-centric comedies in Sandler’s filmography in just two years, as he starred alongside Jennifer Aniston in last year’s aptly-named Murder Mystery.
Adam Sandler’s last movie was Uncut Gems, a tense crime thriller that saw him playing a desperate jeweler who has to retrieve an expensive gem to pay off his debts.
