Netflix unveils a new Hustle trailer showing Adam Sandler tapping into his dramatic chops as a basketball scout inspiring a future star. The sports drama revolves around Stanley Beren, a down-on-his luck scout who travels endlessly for the Philadelphia 76ers in search of new players. When he discovers a powerhouse new star with a checkered past in Spain, Beren brings him to the United States without his team's approval in the hopes of proving to themselves they have what it takes to make it into the NBA.
Alongside Sandler, the cast for Hustle includes Queen Latifah as Beren's wife, Ben Foster, Robert Duvall, Juancho Hernangómez, Jordan Hull and JoJo Siwa.

Hustle is gearing up to make its Netflix debut and now audiences are getting a new glimpse at the upcoming movie.
