Funnyman Adam Sandler has lined up his next movie gig. In Bedtime Stories, he stars as a guy who gets thrown for a loop when the bedtime stories he tells his niece and nephew start coming true.

The film is set to be directed by Adam Shankman, he of Hairspray fame. He said, "It's basically a mash-up of Liar Liar and The Princess Bride, [mixed] with the fantasy side of The Lord of the Rings."

Adam can be seen in the current release, Reign Over Me, and the upcoming movie, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, due out in July, with Kevin James.

Sounds, um, interesting.
