“Whether you know him as Sandman, the Water Boy, Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, Nick Spitz or simply Adam, one thing is clear: our members can’t get enough of him,” said Ted Sarandos, Netflix Chief Content Officer. “They love his stories and his humor, as we saw with ‘Murder Mystery.’ So I could not be more excited to extend our partnership with Adam and the Happy Madison team and deliver more laughs around the world.” Sarandos also announced that “Murder Mystery,” was easily the most popular film released by Netflix in 2019. Netflix claims that 83 million households watched “Murder Mystery” in its first four weeks of release. A Netflix spokesperson confirmed that the data tweeted out was accurate, and clarified that Netflix only counts views if members finished at least 70% of a film. In terms of box-office numbers, If it’s $8 a ticket then it’s $ 240 million box office worldwide (and we all know it’s hard to find an $8 movie ticket these days at multiplexes). Later this year, the actor will star in “Hubie Halloween” with Kevin James, Julie Bowen and Maya Rudolph. Here’s his Netflix catalog:
