  • Adam Sandler Talks "Empty City"
    By Garth FranklinThursday June 8th, 2006 4:45pm
    Out doing promotions for his new comedy "Click", Adam Sandler revealed to Coming Soon that he is currently shooting the drama "Empty City" about a man who has lost his family in the September 11th attack and he runs into his old college roommate, played by Don Cheadle, who helps him deal with his grief.

    He says "Don't know how to describe the movie, how to sum it up... I can't wait for Mike Binder, the man who wrote it, and hear him discuss it, because I don't know how to phrase this. But it's just about a man who's been through a terrible thing -- he lost his family in 9/11 -- and he has a hard time just living life and just being in the moment"

    Sandler adds that the character "doesn't want to know about life. He tries to pretend he never had a family. He can only deal with life by thinking about stuff from his past and growing up and he bumps into... Cheadle plays, we went to dental school together, and my character hasn't spoken to anybody in five years and Cheadle makes him feel comfortable. So it's about friendship, I guess. I'm sorry. I just don't know how to say... It's a really interesting script and Mike Binder did a great job with the script and I saw some of it recently and it's a heavy-duty movie"

    "Empty City" also stars Jada Pinkett Smith and Liv Tyler.
