California employer
Adam Sandler must hire half of the available actors and actresses in California to appear in his movies.
Look at the "full cast and crew" names link for Zohan, and the list goes on forever.
He cannot really "hire". The acting industry is HIGHLY selective. The only power he has is to refer all these people to his agency and his agent, along with other agents, have to select them to star in the movie. Of course, even with a movie like this, it has a limited budget and so the people employed, have to have some sort of real part. If not, then they are just wasting $ right?
