In a previous teaser trailer, which Sandler shared on Instagram in December, Happy mourned the loss of his pal 'Chubbs' Peterson — played in the first Happy Gilmore film by Carl Weathers, who died in February 2024 — before crossing paths with sworn nemesis Shooter McGavin (Christopher McDonald).
Netflix first announced the movie pickup as part of its Upfront presentation to advertisers last year, affirming that 'Adam Sandler will reprise his iconic role in a brand-new movie, Happy Gilmore 2.'
It was McDonald, via a radio interview — and then Drew Barrymore, somewhat randomly — who first got the Happy Gilmore 2 buzz going. During an episode of Barrymore's syndicated daytime talker, she received, in real time via text, confirmation from Sandler that a sequel script was in progress.
Sandler co-wrote the original 1996 motion picture and also starred as the titular Happy Gilmore, a lovable loser who only ever wanted to be a professional hockey player. But when Happy discovers he actually has a talent for playing an entirely different sport, golf — and after his grandmother learns that she will lose her home unless she ponies up $270K for the IRS — he joins a golf tournament to try and win enough money to save the day.
The Happy Gilmore cast also included Christopher McDonald as a rival golfer, Julie Bowen as Happy's love interest, the late Frances Bay as Grandma and the late Carl Weathers as retired pro 'Chubbs' Peterson, while the late game show icon Bob Barker had an instantly iconic cameo as himself.
Among the Happy Gilmore 2 castings, you have Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce doing 'something' and Josh Safdie, who directed Sandler in Uncut Gems, in 'a juicy part.'
Are you looking forward to seeing Happy Gilmore hit the links again?

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry was promise a role in an Adam Sandler movie if he rushes for 2,000 yards this season.
Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry was promise a role in an Adam Sandler movie if he rushes for 2,000 yards this season. originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Last season Baltimore Ravens star running back Derrick Henry was on the brink of history, rushing for 1,921 yards. Advertisement He was just 79 yards short of eclipsing the momentous 2,000 mark - something Henry has already done once in his career (2,027 yards in 2020 with the Tennessee Titans). Including Henry, only nine players have ever rushed for 2,000 yards in a season. But nobody has ever done it twice. In speaking on The Dan Patrick Show, "King Henry" humbling said 2,000 yards wasn't much of a goal last season, despite how close he was to reaching it. Patrick was wearing a sweatshirt from Adam Sandler's "Happy Gilmore 2" collection. The Hall-of-Fame radio host, who has appeared in numerous cameos in his movies, is close friends with Sandler. Advertisement Henry approved, saying that Sandler is his favorite actor. Then, Patrick promised he would try to get Henry a role in a Sandler film if he reaches the 2,000-yard mark this season. "Say no more. Remember that now," Henry said with a smile. "The bet is on. No pressure at all." This may be all the motivation Henry needs to make NFL history in 2025. Last season's showing for the Ravens ball carrier is still a large act to follow. He played in all 17 games and took an average of almost 20 handoffs a game (325 total). In his 2020 season, he received 378 handoffs to hit that 2,000 mark. He may have been very close to reaching the milestone if he had been given the ball 23 more times last season... Advertisement So with a Sandler cameo on the line, expect Henry to get plenty of touches in 2025. Sandler's "Happy Gilmore 2", the sequel to the iconic 1996 film, releases on July 25.
