Spoilers ahead

In 1994, we meet Sandy Wexler (Adam Sandler), an eccentric talent manager operating in Los Angeles. Sandy is notorious for his outrageous personality; he approaches aspiring stars on the streets, often boasting exaggerated stories to make himself seem more important. He’s known for having a ridiculous laugh that’s over-the-top, along with a habit of eating with his mouth open. Living in a cabana by a lavish pool in Bel Air—courtesy of his landlord Firuz (Rob Schneider), who needs Sandy around for legal reasons—Sandy struggles to find success for his clients. They’ve had little luck, except for one former client, Alfred, who only found fame after leaving Sandy’s management.
