Adam Sandler's career be like today if things played out differently early on in his career? For example, if he'd gotten cast as Ross on, and thus teamed up with Jennifer Aniston even earlier?Well, as it turns out, that particular branching timeline wasn't really in the cards — despite some recent remarks the pair made while promoting their new film,, that seemingly implied that it was a possibility.The co-stars walked the red carpet at the premiere of their Netflix action comedy on Tuesday, and they each spoke with ET's Nischelle Turner about whether or not Sandler was actually in the running for the role — which ultimately went to David Schwimmer.«Well, that's a very big possibility,» Aniston said, before asking Sandler, «Were you really up to play Ross?»Sandler sadly shook his head, but added, «I would have!»«No that wasn't real,» Sandler added. «I was just joking.»However, that doesn't mean the pair were joking when talking with Drew Barrymore about wanting to do a movie adaptation of «Talk to the sweatshirted man!» Aniston said, referring to the casually dressed Sandler, when asked about the possibility. «It depends on how everybody responds to this film.»«If they enjoyed themselves and had a good time, Netflix will hopefully just say 'Yup!'» Aniston added enthusiastically.«I mean, honestly, I don't know if that's the one,» Sandler said, referring to the ideal project that he, Aniston and Barrymore could all collaborate on. «But that would be funny, I'm sure, if someone wrote a great script.»However, the real problem is stepping into the shoes of Jack Tripper — an iconic comedy role originally played by John Ritter in the beloved sitcom.«Jack Tripper is the best, by the way.

Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle Editor Adam Sandler may have done some impressive action sequences in “Murder Mystery 2,” but it sounds like he’s not jumping at the chance to do his own stunts again anytime soon.

I did ’Spaceman’ and I was hanging in harness all the time. I kept saying, ‘Something’s going on with my hip, man. I’m in trouble.’ And then during this and this other movie I did I was like, ‘Yeah, I definitely gotta x-ray that thing,’ and we were in trouble.”
