Hustle Director Jeremiah Zagar on How His Mom’s Feedback Altered the Film
Jul 02 2022
With Hustle now streaming on Netflix, I recently got to speak with director Jeremiah Zagar about making his first big movie. Written by Taylor Materne and Will Fetters, Hustle is about a road weary Philadelphia 76ers scout (Adam Sandler) who discovers an incredible player off the grid in Spain (Juancho Hernangómez) and their journey to proving to everyone that he belongs in the NBA. The film also stars Queen Latifah, Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards, Ben Foster, Kenny Smith, Jordan Hull, Maria Botto, Ainhoa Pillet, Raul Castillo, Jaleel White, Heidi Gardner and Robert Duvall.
