Actor Adam Sandler may belong to Y-haplogroup J2a1

Browsing through the Jewish Y-DNA Project, I came across a descendant of Movsha Sandler (born c. 1798 in Pusalotas, Lithuania). This matches exactly Adam Sandler's g-g-great-grand-father according to his genealogy. The STR haplotype appear to fit within the M67 clade, and probably the L210 subclade.

Quick correction, the descendant of Movsha Sandler is under the Z30390 branch, you can see it under the J-M172 project, it's on page 2.
