Adam Sandler is to play an Israeli secret service agent in a new comedy called 'You Don't Mess With the Zohan'.
The Hollywood Reporter says that the film tells the story of a Mossad agent who fakes his own death so that he can move to New York and become a hair stylist.
Shooting on the film will begin in the summer in Los Angeles and New York for a summer 2008 release.
Sandler's company, Happy Madison, will produce the film.
