The Adam Sandler-led family spin on classic movie monsters has grossed over USD 1.3 billion at the worldwide box office, reported Variety
Sony will release it on December 21, 2021.

The film starred Sandler, Selena Gomez, Kathryn Hahn, Andy Samberg, Kevin James, and Fran Drescher. It was written by Tartakovsky and Michael McCullers, with Michelle Murdocca serving as producer.

Soy Pictures Animation on February 24 became a rare Hollywood studio to beat Disney-Pixar in the best animated film category for its hit ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.’
