Adam Sandler's career has been turbulent and inconsistent to say the least. The SNL legend had an insane start to his Hollywood career, with the likes of Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, The Waterboy, and Big Daddy releasing over a span of just four years. Then later came the lows of Jack and Jill, Grown Ups, and more, before a renaissance of more dramatic roles in recent years.

That, and the actor's new deal with Netflix may have been the main reasons behind his leaving the Hotel Transylvania franchise after three movies. In his place came Brian Hull.

Rather than a typical voice actor, Hull was known for his Disney impressions on YouTube, and went viral with his covers of Let it Go and Hello. The fact that he was able to then go on to replace Adam Sandler in Hotel Transylvania 4 is a wonderful story, and directors Jennifer Kluska and Derek Drymon couldn't have been happier with his work with their slightly different take on the iconic character.

Since Dracula was transformed into a human during the events of the movie, it gave the opportunity to go in a slightly different direction. It couldn't have been an easy task to step into the shoes of one such as Adam Sandler, but it's hard to imagine anyone doing it as well as Brian Hull did.
