Dustin Hoffman in Tootsie. Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire. John Travolta in Hairspray. These are among some of Hollywood’s big name men to let their feminine sides shine through on screen by playing the role of women (granted, Hoffman and Williams were both men playing men playing women…)
The next star to don a dress for a film? Adam Sandler.
Sandler has signed on to star in Jack and Jill, and romantic comedy from Columbia Pictures. The actor will be doing double duty in the film, playing the roles of both Jack and Jill, as well as producing the film under his Happy Madison banner.
Filming on Jack and Jill will begin early next year, to be ready for release by Sony in 2011.
