For Adam Sandler's second animated feature with Happy Madison, Leo, the comedian teams up with fellow Saturday Night Live alum Robert Sigel to explore the pains and joys of growing up through the eyes of a 74-year-old lizard. After its premiere on Netflix, Sandler spoke with Collider's Steve Weintraub about the surprisingly deep messages contained in the animated feature and how the movie evolved in the editing process.

Sandler provides the voice of Leo, the disenchanted pet lizard of an elementary class who shares his tank with his best friend, Squirtle the turtle (voiced by Bill Burr). Life is hunky-dory until one day, the realization of a life passing him by hits hard. When the kids are instructed to take home the class pets, Leo recognizes his chance to escape a life behind glass. His plans are thwarted, however, when one of the kids discovers Leo can talk, and suddenly a lizard of 74 years is imparting life lessons to a bunch of elementary school kids in a heartfelt adventure. Leo also features the talents of Cecily Strong, Jason Alexander, Rob Schneider, and more.

During their one-on-one, Sandler talks about the inspiration behind the messages of the movie, how Leo changed throughout its years of development, and reuniting with co-writer and director, Sigel. He also talks about his time on Saturday Night Live, if he'd like to host again, the most nervous he's ever been on a set, and the status of his next Safdie Brothers' project.
