Sunny Sandler, the youngest child of Adam Sandler, is being hailed by critics for her “lovely” performance in Netflix’s new coming-of-age dramedy Don’t Say Good Luck.
The upcoming film, inspired by director Julia Hart’s childhood, marks the first major lead role for 17-year-old Sunny. She stars as high school theater kid Sophie, whose life is thrown into chaos when she lands the lead role in her school’s musical, just as she learns that her mother’s cancer has returned. Melanie Lynskey and Max Greenfield portray Sophie’s parents; Steve Buscemi plays her grandfather.
