Adam Sandler’s Been Amping Up His Red Carpet Game. Turns Out, George Clooney’s On A Mission – To Get Him In A Suit

Adam Sandler is known for his comfortable, casual style – think oversized t-shirts, baggy shorts, and sneakers. However, since being cast in Noah Baumbach’s film, Jay Kelly, a role that could earn him an Oscar nomination, Sandler has been dressing more formally, swapping his usual basketball shorts for slacks. His co-star, George Clooney, is even encouraging this change, hoping to see Sandler consistently in a suit.

It’s surprising to see Adam Sandler and George Clooney in a movie together, but so far, I really like what I’m seeing! The trailer for their upcoming 2025 Netflix film, Jay Kelly, shows they have great chemistry. Sandler plays the manager of Clooney’s character, a well-known actor, and the story takes them on a trip to Europe.

Just like Sandler’s character is there for Clooney’s, the Ocean’s Eleven star has made sure to be there for his bud in “making” him wear more suits in public. At the Jay Kelly AFI Fest premiere, wearing a debonair navy suit, the Happy Gilmore actor jokingly told ET about his two-time Oscar-winning co-star “forcing” him to don a fancy wardrobe and why he’s going along with it:

I’m dressing up for him because I think George Clooney is a genuinely good person. He seems genuinely upset when I don’t, so I decided to wear the suit to make him happy.

It’s funny to watch Adam Sandler try to make a good impression on his co-star. Given her sophisticated red carpet looks – she used to be on E.R. – it’s no surprise she’d offer him some fashion advice. After all, if you’re going to be in the spotlight, you need to dress the part!

I think Clooney really wants people to see Adam Sandler differently. He’s said before that he always knew Sandler was more than just funny – he thinks he’s a genuinely talented and amazing actor. And honestly, giving him a wardrobe like his own? It definitely helps show that serious side and proves what Clooney sees in him – a truly award-worthy performer.

Adam Sandler once joked that he wore loose clothes to hide his body. But recently, standing beside a sharply dressed George Clooney at a film festival, it was obvious Sandler has more self-assurance. It seems Clooney has helped bring that out in him. Here’s a look at the two stars looking great on the red carpet.

That’s a fantastic transformation! The two actors look incredibly stylish and bring a natural charm and charisma that perfectly suits their comedic drama.

People have joked that George Clooney influenced Adam Sandler’s recent change in fashion. However, there’s talk that Sandler might be deliberately dressing up for a different reason: to win an Oscar. Many believe his new Netflix film, Jay Kelly, could be his ticket to finally receiving a nomination, especially after his critically acclaimed but overlooked performance in Uncut Gems. Hopefully, this movie will give the Billy Madison star a chance to impress the Academy and even show off a stylish outfit at the Oscars.
