As Sandler explained:

"And for whatever reason, Netflix isn't in China, so they said, 'Can you please get it so we can find someone in Latin America or Europe?' Next thing you know, I'm in Mallorca"

Once the location of the film was changed, the actor to play the co-star had to be found. The chosen one was Hernangómez, a Spanish NBA player who is currently part of the Utah Jazz squad . The now also actor has recognized that, initially, he did not want to get into the world of cinema, but that he finally accepted.

"Luck. Unexpected. Right time and situation. Pandemic involved. Boredom at home. And all powered by my sister ," Hernangómez told SensaCine. The result? A success for the streaming platform that has also delighted critics and the public.

On Rotten Tomatoes , for example, Garra has a 92% rating , making the film one of Sandler's best-regarded. The Meyerowitz Stories (News and Selected) has 93% and Diamonds in the Rough 92%. However, the first has a 72% score among fans and the second with 52%.
