Shirtless Travis Kelce Slathered in Honey by Bad Bunny, Attacked by a Bear in ‘Happy Gilmore 2'
Warning: Spoilers below for Happy Gilmore 2.
Kelce, 35, makes a brief but memorable appearance in the highly-anticipated sequel — which hit Netflix on Friday, July 25 — as a seemingly normal hotel server who is first seen politely fetching an Arnold Palmer for former pro golfer Jack Nicklaus. His true personality, however, breaks through when bus boy Oscar (played by Bad Bunny) lets him know a guest requested Bombay, not Tanquaray gin, for his drink.
'You told [him] that was on me, man? You threw me under the bus? Why, so you could be the hero? You took the knife and stabbed me in my back,' Kelce aggressively says to Oscar, who swears he meant no harm.

'I can't work like this,' Kelce's character continues. 'Watching my six. You mess around, you find out,' he threatens. 'I just meant to help,' Oscar desperately replies, but Kelce doesn't buy it: 'You're fired,' he tells Oscar before barking in his face and walking away.
Happy Gilmore (Adam Sandler) witnesses the tense exchange by a nearby table, and questions Kelce on being a little 'harsh' on Oscar for his mistake. 'Sorry you had to hear that, Mr. Gilmore,' Kelce says, 'but you don't know the backstory.'
Later in the night, when the golfers decide to enter a tournament against a new evil league of players, Kelce loses his cool again, this time in excitement. When he chest bumps two players so hard they're thrown through a table, the entire crowd erupts in cheers.
Later, however, Kelce's temper comes back to haunt him. He makes his final appearance in one of Oscar's dream sequences after Happy asks him to visualize his own 'happy place.'
The former bus boy, now a caddy to Happy, begins to fantasize about tying up Kelce, now only wearing an apron around his lower region, up to a pole inside a beautiful garden and slathering him in honey.
'What is this? Is this about the job? Come on,' Kelce asks as Oscar continues to paint honey all over his body. After Oscar seductively covers him in the thick liquid, a bear appears and attacks the athlete as he screams for help.
'I'm happy now,' Oscar says after coming out of the dream. 'You were thinking about a bear eating that waiter, weren't you? Was there honey involved?' Happy asks with a smile, to which Oscar replies, 'Un poquito,' meaning, 'a little.'
Happy Gilmore 2 serves as a sequel to Sandler's 1996 comedy hit, catching back up with the amateur golfer nearly 30 years after the events of the first film. Now retired and the parent of five kids with wife Virginia Venit (Julie Bowen), the retired pro is looking to return to the game, hoping to win enough money to send daughter Vienna (Sunny Sandler) to a prestigious European ballet school.
Kelce opened up about getting a chance to cameo in the sports comedy during a January episode of The Pat McAfee Show, calling the opportunity a 'dream come true.'
'I thought SNL was going to be the peak of my acting and showman or entertainment career," Travis quipped. "Working with Happy Gilmore himself, the Sandman and Happy Productions, it was off the chain."
Adam Sandler Wanted Travis Kelce to Play His Son in 'Happy Gilmore 2'
Sandler, for his part, joked during an August 2024 episode of Travis and brother Jason Kelce's 'New Heights' podcast that he greenlit a Happy Gilmore sequel just for a chance to work with the NFL star. Sandler noted that he originally had a special role in mind for Travis but they ultimately decided to go in a different direction.
'We were talking about you playing my son while we were writing it, literally, like, six months ago,' Sandler continued during the August episode. 'We were like, 'Imagine if Travis was my first baby, how funny that would be. Just a badass.''
Happy Gilmore 2 is on Netflix now.

Everyone Is Making The Same Joke About The 31-Year-Old Baby, And I'm Sorry But It's A Good One
An Ohio couple welcomed their baby boy, Thaddeus, last week! Little Thaddeus isn't your typical newborn, though. He's 31 years old. Thaddeus was born from an embryo that had been frozen for 31 years, making him the longest-frozen embryo to ever result in a successful birth. A tweet from Pop Crave gorgeously visualizing the momentous occasion is going viral: PopCrave/Igor Kovalchuk via Alamy/Twitter: @PopCrave The replies are somewhat killing me. These jokes write themselves. "That baby could've been playing tony hawks pro skater 2 and listening to killswitch engage but now it has to play fortnite and listen to carti," one person said. Another person pleaded: "If life begins at conception, let this baby DRIVE and VOTE." And this person said, as a matter of fact: "She should be at the club." But one joke is more popular than the rest. It's this: "The first kid to have the RIGHT to claim he was born in the wrong generation." Because this thing is so absurd, here are some of the funniest tweets about this 31-year-old baby: "Good luck explaining that gap on ur resume bitch." "The concept of starting life at 31." "No the oldest baby ever is still this one." "Avatar: The Last Millennial." "God I'd be so pissed to find out I could've been a chic 90s baby and now I'm just a quirky headline in humanity's apathetic end times." "Imagine being born 31 years old." "The Birth of the Final Millennial." "Poor kid missed out on all the good shit." "That baby is going to have a weird craving for some Fruitopia." "This poor kid could've been born during one of the best decades in history and instead he's born into the era of Cocomelon, TikTok, and AI slop." And lastly: "Baby freezer burnt as hell I'm sure."

Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson's loved ones aren't spilling on their relationship, but they are supportive
People in entertainmentFacebookTweetLink Follow 'Naked Gun' costars Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson are coy when asked if they are romantically involved, but we do know how some of their friends and family feel about their closeness. Bravo executive and talk show host Andy Cohen - who was a good friend of Neeson's late wife, actress Natasha Richardson - was among the first people to provide insight, saying during a recent episode of his SiriusXM show that he and others who were close to Richards were 'very much stanning whatever this is' between Neeson and Anderson. Others appear to also be showing support. Richardson died in a skiing accident in 2009. She was 45. Over the weekend her sister, actress Joely Richardson, commented with seven hearts from her verified Instagram account on a carousel of photos of Anderson and Neeson, which Anderson posted on her verified Instagram account. Anderson and Neeson appeared on Sunday's episode of 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen' and Cohen let it be known that he would not be asking about the nature of their relationship. But the host did reiterate that Neeson's friends are 'very much stanning this relationship' and referenced the actor's adult son, Daniel Neeson, who was in the studio audience. 'Right, Danny?,' Cohen said to the younger Neeson, who smiled and appeared to agree. Liam Neeson reached out and held Anderson's hand after Cohen made the comment. Speculation about their relationship swirled as the pair began promoting their new film, now in theaters, with onlookers noting their chemistry on and off screen. Neeson first fanned the flames when he told People magazine in an interview last year that he is 'madly in love with' Anderson, going on to compliment her work ethic.

SPLINTER CELL Series Creator Derek Kolstad Explains Why Sam Fisher Is 'Not the Best' — GeekTyrant
Netflix's upcoming animated series Splinter Cell: Deathwatch is bringing back stealth icon Sam Fisher, but not exactly the way longtime fans might expect. Series creator Derek Kolstad, the writer behind John Wick and Nobody , recently opened up about his approach to the character, and he doesn't see Sam Fisher as ultimate ghost operative. Kolstad told Den of Geek: 'One of the things that I like about Sam Fisher, John Wick, and Hutch Mansell [from Nobody] is that, yes, they're pretty badass at what they do but, more importantly, they're not the best. They get beat up.' That an interesting outlook considering Fisher's reputation as one of gaming's most elite covert agents, but Kolstad seems intent on making him more grounded and vulnerable. This means that Deathwatch might lean toward a grittier, hands-on style similar to Splinter Cell: Conviction , rather than the purely shadow-driven approach from the original trilogy. In the early games, Fisher was a master of infiltration, relying on high-tech gadgets and his iconic night vision goggles to ghost through missions without leaving a trace. Kolstad went on to explain: 'You look at the games, and he's incredibly adept and comfortable at tech, but sometimes a bullet or a blade or the ripping out of some cord is your best line of defense.' That philosophy hints at a Fisher who isn't invincible, and whose fights might be a little more brutal and desperate this time around. But Kolstad believes the heart of the character remains the same. 'I always loved the world of Splinter Cell. I'm a huge fan of army-of-one [stories] if you do it right. And yet, even though he's had hard decisions to make, it's just refreshing that Sam Fisher's a hero. 'He has moments of empathy and having to do this thing when both decisions are wrong, but one is a little less wrong at the cost of his soul and his own personal life, but for the benefit of the rest of us.' Splinter Cell: Deathwatch will feature Liev Schreiber as the voice of Sam Fisher, stepping into the role long held by Michael Ironside. The series made its first appearance at the Annecy Festival, where director Guillaume Dousse revealed some of the visual and tonal inspirations for the show, citing Ghost in the Shell , Ozark , and even elements of Mission: Impossible . Producer Hugo Revon added: 'It was interesting to have this aging character, not totally like the Tom Cruise version but more realistic, and more weathered by life.' The series is set to hit Netflix in late 2025, joining the platform's growing roster of video game adaptations like Castlevania and the upcoming Devil May Cry series. Meanwhile, fans are still waiting on that elusive Splinter Cell remake, which Ubisoft teased years ago but hasn't delivered any meaningful updates on. So, how do you feel about a Sam Fisher who isn't the best at what he does?
