\"Look at you, you're the American dream. The last of the old movie stars,\" Sandler as Ron says to a frustrated Clooney as Kelly.

Later in the trailer, Kelly's daughter tells him she is leaving for Paris, after which Ron gets a call from Kelly's publicist, played by Dern, begging him to meet Kelly and join him as he suffers a \"nervous breakdown.\" Upon meeting, Ron learns he'll be traveling with Kelly to France with Liz joining as well. On the trip, Kelly's celebrity follows him, as he encounters tourists cheering him on and calling his name.

\"Lately I feel like my life doesn't really feel real,\" says Kelly mid-way through the trailer. \"I'm suddenly remembering things,\" he continues, adding, \"It's like a movie where I'm playing myself.\"

Ron shares his perspective later in the trailer, asking, \"Does none of this mean anything to you? Cause it means something to me.\"

Sandler told Netflix that he knows \"many Rons.\" Adding, \"I've met a lot of nice people along the way who have helped me, thought of me, and put stuff aside in their lives to make sure that mine was going smoothly when I needed them.\"

Clooney also commented on the movie to the streamer, saying, \"This character has a lot more regrets than I would have, because, luckily for me, fame came much later in my life.\"

\"Jay Kelly\" will be out in select theaters on Nov. 14 and will be released on Netflix on Dec. 5.
