Funnyman Adam Sandler is being sued by comic book writer, Robert Cabell who is claiming Sandler stole the idea for his movie, You Don’t Mess with the Zohan from his comic book series entitled, “Hair-Raising Adventures of Jayms Blonde.” The story chronicles a former Navy SEAL-turned-hairdresser out to get corporate evildoers armed with an Uzi-style blow-dryer. (Sounds almost exactly like Zohan!)

“He’s gorgeous, he’s gay, he makes the bad guys pay,” Cabell boasts on a Web site plugging his adventure hero.

Cabell has filed a copyright infringement suit against Sandler and bosses at Happy Madison Productions, Sony and Columbia Pictures on Monday in Manhattan Federal court in New York. He is also claiming he pitchd the story to Colombia Pictures in 2007. Shortly thereafter, Sandler began filming on Zohan.

In Zohan, Sandler stars as an Israeli special agent who lives with his orthodox parents and wants to give up his dangerous life so he fakes his own death moves to New York to be a hairdresser.

This wasn’t even that great of a movie, but hey it sounds like this guy may be owed some money.
