This role marks a significant departure from his usual repertoire, showcasing his versatility as an actor. The film, an adaptation of Jaroslav Kalfař’s novel “Spaceman of Bohemia”, promises a blend of deep space exploration and intense personal drama.

This narrative offers a compelling look at the sacrifices made in the pursuit of scientific discovery and personal ambition. With its unique setting and Sandler’s unexpected casting, “Spaceman” is poised to be a significant addition to the Netflix lineup, potentially setting a new benchmark for space-themed dramas. In the film, you will also see, for example, Kunal Nayyar as the technician Peter and Carey Mulligan in the role of Procházka’s wife.
