'Adam Sandler Delivers a Truly Spectacular Performance' - Timothée Chalamet recalls basketball reunion with Sandler

There's more to Hollywood friendships than red carpets and award shows. As reported by People, actors Timothée Chalamet and Adam Sandler recently added a sporting twist to their friendship. They hit the outdoor basketball courts of New York, giving fans and fellow players an unexpected surprise.

Reminiscing on their gray-t-shirt day, the duo stood together on the basketball court, each comfortably clad in basketball shorts, demonstrating their shared casual style and a keen interest in the sport. The camaraderie between the two actors dates back to their time spent filming the early 2000s movie, 'Men, Women, & Children.' The Jason Reitman-directed flick explores the challenges of the digital age, with the high school teenagers and their parents struggling to navigate its impact on their lives.

With years passed since their shared cinematic journey, their bond has strengthened and transcended beyond professional admiration. "Adam Sandler delivers a truly spectacular performance," Chalamet gushed, while discussing the Hollywood veteran's compelling role in the 2020 film 'Uncut Gems' in a Variety essay.

Sandler's character, a jewelry store owner stuck in crippling gambling debts, put everything on the line for a precious gem's sale. It's no wonder Chalamet found the performance spellbinding. And it appears that the admiration is mutual.

Fast forward to the 2022 Gotham Awards, and we hear echoes of this remarkable friendship in Sandler's acceptance speech. Accepting the Film Tribute Award, he referred to the Chalamet's presence in a humorous anecdote penned by his daughters, Sadie and Sunny. The statement read, "I don't want to spend a whole night that's supposed to be about me and my greatness... where is Timothée Chalamet and how can we legally squeeze that fine little Jewish ass of his?"

This fun-filled day of basketball, coupled with mutual admiration and good-natured humor, cements the bond shared by Adam Sandler and Timothée Chalamet, making their friendship a captivating narrative worth following in Hollywood.
