Adam Sandler’s ‘Hubie Halloween’ Wraps Filming in Salem

Adam Sandler’s new Netflix comedy, with the working title of Hubie Halloween, has wrapped filming in and around Salem, Massachusetts, as Sandler himself marked the occasion by thanking the area’s residents for having the production.

On Thursday, Aug. 29, Sandler posted a photo of co-star Tim Meadows in a costume on Instagram, with the caption, “Last day of shooting Hubie Halloween. Thanks for all the hospitality this summer, Massachusetts. It was a blast. Have a great Labor Day weekend and see you next time.

The all-star cast also includes Julie Bowen, Kevin James, Rob Schneider, Maya Rudolph, Ray Liotta, Michael Chiklis, Kenan Thompson, Steve Buscemi, China Anne McClain, Paris Berelc, Tim Meadows, Colin Quinn, June Squibb, Shaquille O’Neal, Karan Brar, Noah Schnapp (Stranger Things), Mikey Day, Melissa Villaseñor, Kym Whitley, Lavell Crawford, Betsy Sodaro, George Wallace, and Blake Clark.

The synopsis: Good-natured but eccentric community volunteer Hubie Dubois (Sandler) finds himself at the center of a real murder case on Halloween night. Despite his devotion to his hometown of Salem, Massachusetts (and its legendary Halloween celebration), Hubie is a figure of mockery for kids and adults alike. But this year, something really is going bump in the night, and it’s up to Hubie to save Halloween.

Steve Brill (Little Nicky, Mr. Deeds, The Do-Over, Sandy Wexler) directed from a screenplay by Sandler and Tim Herlihy for the Happy Madison and Netflix.

Filming began in early July on location in and around Salem, Mass.

Netflix has not yet announced a premiere date.
