NEW YORK — Adam Sandler feels that when audiences finally see his upcoming Netflix comedy, “The Ridiculous Six,” they will realize he wasn’t trying to offend anyone.

The spoof takes its name from the western classic “The Magnificent Seven” and pokes fun at the genre. But not everyone found it funny.

Earlier this year, a group of Native American actors walked off a New Mexico film set over complaints that content in the film was offensive to their culture. The actors objected over the vile names of some of the characters, as well as a Native American woman urinating while smoking a peace pipe.

Sandler called the film 100 percent pro-American Indian. It premieres Dec. 11.
