Devilishly funny

Adam Sandler is the latest in an exhaustingly long line of people to associate themselves with movies to do with the devil. In an interview with Film 99, the comic revealed some details about his latest project, Little Nicky. 'I play the son of the devil.' Sandler explained. 'My father is Satan, I'm his son in hell and he's thinking of retiring. I have two brothers, and they want to be the next devil and I'm kind of the goofy son of the devil.' The plotline for Little Nicky won't come as a surprise to Sandler fans as, once again, the actor plays somebody who's forced to grow up. ' [Little Nicky] stays in his room in hell and leaves everyone else alone,' said Sandler, 'but he gets forced to become a man.' When asked about the recurring theme, Sandler admitted that 'I think I don't want to grow up. I think when you grow up you have to concentrate a lot, on doing the right thing and making the right choices, whereas when you don't grow up you just get away with anything you wanna do. But I have a girlfriend now, so I'm forced to grow up. I have to act normal, I have to stay in good moods, it's very very hard.' Check out Empire's review of Big Daddy when it goes online this Friday.
