The movie studio that blacklisted “asshole” Adam Sandler: “He isn’t the guy he once was”For all intents and purposes, Adam Sandler is meant to be one of the nicest guys in Hollywood, which makes you wonder what he had to do to find himself blacklisted by an entire movie studio. Even if you’re one of the many, many, many people who can’t stand his schtick, he still comes across as a genuinely good egg. Doug Belgrad, who was head of Sony Pictures Entertainment’s film division, also weighed in. “That he isn’t the guy he once was, and nobody can make that better for him.” Summing up the pair of them, she said, “We are going to hold firm about not paying,” with Amy Pascal adding, “They are such assholes.”
