Adam Sandler Gives Major Update on 'Grown Ups 3'
Adam Sandler gave Us Weekly an exclusive update on 'Grown Ups 3,' after costar Kevin James hinted a sequel is in the works
www.usmagazine.comHere are the latest updates I can share about Grown Ups 3.
-
Netflix development: In May 2026, Variety reported that Grown Ups 3 is officially in development at Netflix, marking the first formal acknowledgment of the project by the streamer. This suggests Netflix is prioritizing a third installment, continuing the franchise after the 2010 and 2013 films.[1]
-
Public comments from cast: Over the past year, Adam Sandler and costars have been coy about timing, with Sandler noting that details hadn’t been finalized and ongoing conversations among the cast have been referenced by peers like Kevin James, indicating the project is still alive but not guaranteed on a fixed schedule. A Us Weekly interview in late 2025 reinforced that there were discussions and potential production movements, but no official green light date was given at that moment.[3]
-
Previous reporting context: Early coverage around 2024–2025 often debated whether a Grown Ups 3 would happen, with several outlets noting the absence of formal confirmation despite strong fan interest and comments from the cast suggesting ongoing talks.[4]
-
Fan-drive and trailers: Right now, there are multiple fan-made videos and speculative trailers circulating online, but none have been official or endorsed by Netflix or the film’s producers, which is typical for a project in early development or rumor stage.[6][7][8][9]
-
Industry consensus: IMDb and entertainment press have tracked the chatter, but as of the latest reports, there is no confirmed production start date or cast lineup beyond the original ensemble being a potential target, with Vancouver and other production hubs occasionally mentioned in speculative pieces.[10]
What this means for you
- The project exists in official discourse as in development at Netflix, but no release date or full cast has been announced yet, so timing remains uncertain.[1]
- Updates from 2025–2026 indicate optimism from the cast and crew, but fans should await formal confirmation from Netflix or the producers for concrete details.[3][4]
