Adam Sandler has been ruling Netflix since Leo was released on November 28, 2023. Sandler’s character as a lizard was pretty unique and outstanding. No wonder, Leo has been the first animated film to rule Netflix. The story has captivated the audiences’ mind, where it showed a lizard named Leo (voiced by Adam Sandler) found out that he's getting old and he has a lifespan of 75 years, and he's already in his 74th year. So instead of panicking, Leo decides to ditch his glass jail and see the world.
