Sony Pictures are due to begin talks with Adam Sandler’s production company Happy Maddison for a sequel to the stars highest-grossing hit GROWN UPS. The film co-starred Sandler with fellow comedy mates David Spade, Chris Rock, Rob Schneider and Kevin James as life-long friends struggling to adapt to the world of fatherhood.

Sandler’s latest effort JACK AND JILL is due in UK cinemas 3rd of February 2012.
