Netflix password-sharing ban: Here is how it may work

Netflix has said it will no longer allow accounts to share passwords with people who live outside their households. FOX 35 spoke with a technology expert about how Netflix may plan on doing that.

FORT MYERS, Fla. - A Florida elementary school has become the unconventional setting for Adam Sandler's newest role, where he plays a cranky, old lizard on a mission to fulfill his bucket list in Netflix's newest animated comedy.

Leo, which was released on Netflix on Tuesday, follows the Grown Ups star as Leo, a 74-year-old class pet stuck in the same classroom for decades alongside his terrarium-mate Squirtle, a turtle voiced by Bill Burr.

The movie is set in a fifth grade classroom in Fort Myers, according to the movie's description on Netflix.

"When he learns he only has one year left to live, he plans to escape to experience life on the outside but instead gets caught up in the problems of his anxious students — including an impossibly mean substitute teacher," the description continues. "It ends up being the strangest but most rewarding bucket list ever."
