Travis Kelce Gives Bad Bunny a Scare in ‘Happy Gilmore 2' Trailer: Watch
Adam Sandler is back on the green for Happy Gilmore 2 — and Travis Kelce is keeping him on his toes.
Sandler, 58, along with costars Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald, appeared during Netflix's 2025 Tudum special on Saturday, May 31, to field some questions about the upcoming sequel and reveal the movie's full length trailer.
"Happy Gilmore sucks now?" a fellow golfer asks in amazement in the opening moments of the teaser as he watches the once-prolific golfer (Sandler) fall on his face while trying to swing a club. "Eat a back of d**ks!" Sandler replies in typical Happy fashion.
The trailer reveals that years after becoming a legend on the green, Happy has stopped playing golf and has seemingly lost his touch. When his daughter (played by Sandler's real life daughter Sadie) wants to attend ballet school, Happy and his wife, Virginia (Bowen), realize the only way they'll be able to afford her dreams is if Happy returns to the game he thought he left behind.
Adam Sandler Wanted Travis Kelce to Play His Son in 'Happy Gilmore 2'
The teaser follows Happy and he tries to get back in the swing of things through practice, breaking in his new caddy (played by Bad Bunny), entering himself in a tournament, releasing some frustrations wi and even facing off with his longtime rival Scooter McGavin (McDonald).
"You stole my life from me," Scooter says. "Why would I want to steal the life of someone who eats pieces of s*** for breakast?" Happy replies before the two square off in a graveyard.
Elsewhere in the trailer, Kelce makes an appearance as a hotel worker who gives Bad Bunny a good old fashioned scare. "BOO!" Kelce yells in Happy's face, causing him to yelp in fear.
Netflix announced in May 2024 that plans for a sequel were in the works. The original 1996 film follows Happy as he discovers his natural talent for golf after an unsuccessful career as an ice hockey player. After entering a golf tournament hoping to win money to save his grandmother's house from foreclosure, a trick shot wins him the championship, the girl — and his grandma's home back.
A teaser trailer in March revealed that Happy Gilmore 2 would pick up with Happy as a dad and husband — and someone who thought golf was in the rearview mirror.
'We're not done with golf,' Bowen's Virginia tells Happy as they seemingly move out of their current home. 'Let them see the Happy I fell in love with.'
The teaser also confirmed that Kelce would have a role in the film as what seems to be a hotel worker welcoming Happy back to his old stomping grounds.
'The whole thing was to get to hang out with Travis. That's why we put it together,' Sandler joked during an August 2024 episode of Kelce's 'New Heights' podcast. 'We're going there [to New Jersey]. Travis, by the way, thank you, I heard you talking about [Happy Gilmore 2] on your show, you guys.'
Sandler confessed he had initially a special role in mind for the NFL star, but they ultimately decided not to pursue that direction.
'We were talking about you playing my son while we were writing it, literally, like, six months ago,' Sandler continued. 'We were like, imagine if Travis was my first baby, how funny that would be. Just a badass.'
While many details of the Happy Gilmore 2 plot have been kept under wraps ahead of its release, new cast addition Kym Whitley gave Us Weekly exclusive insight into her experience working on the film.

'It's going to be hilarious,' Whitley told Us while attending the 16th Annual AAFCA Awards, in February. 'First of all, Adam Sandler, not only is he funny, is a great guy. When I say great, not only that he's just a great person, but he reaches back. He gets all his comic friends. He gives us all jobs, and he lets us play around with the script. He'll be like, 'Try it! Do this and that!''
Happy Gilmore hits Netflix on Friday, July 25.

Trump appears to undercut US proposal to Iran, declaring he won't allow any uranium enrichment
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Monday appeared to undercut a proposal that was offered by his special envoy to Iran, saying he will insist that Tehran fully dismantle its nuclear enrichment program as part of any deal to ease crushing sanctions. Trump and Steve Witkoff, who is leading the negotiations for the U.S., have repeatedly offered inconsistent public messages about whether Iran would be allowed to retain the capacity to enrich uranium to lower levels for civilian purposes. The Trump administration maintains that it will not allow Iran to develop a nuclear weapon. The negotiations have been framed by Trump as both countries' best chance to avoid direct military conflict over Iran's nuclear program. Tehran, which denies seeking a nuclear weapon, has insisted that it will not agree to any deal that fully scraps its enrichment program. 'Under our potential Agreement — WE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY ENRICHMENT OF URANIUM!' Trump wrote on social media. The White House didn't elaborate on the post. Trump's post comes after media reports that Witkoff's latest proposal to Tehran would allow Iran to retain low levels of enrichment for civilian uses like nuclear medicine and commercial power if it agrees to shut down its heavily protected underground sites for a period of time. The U.S. and Iran have engaged in several rounds of direct nuclear talks for the first time in years. Senior officials — including Witkoff and Trump himself — have said within the last few weeks that Iran would not be able to keep enriching uranium at any level. The proposal, reported by Axios and confirmed by two U.S. officials, called for the creation of a regional consortium to handle uranium enrichment for civilian uses — a plan first studied more than a decade ago in negotiations that led to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal. Trump was sharply critical of that agreement — which also allowed set limits on uranium enrichment but permitted Iran to maintain such a capacity — and withdrew the U.S. from it in 2017 during his first term. The officials spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss private diplomatic negotiations. The International Atomic Energy Agency found that Iran has further increased its stockpile of uranium enriched to near weapons-grade levels since its last update in February, according to a confidential report released by the U.N. nuclear watchdog on Saturday. Iran has maintained that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only, but Iranian officials have increasingly suggested that Tehran could pursue an atomic bomb. 'President Trump has made it clear that Iran can never obtain a nuclear bomb,' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement before Trump's post. 'Special Envoy Witkoff has sent a detailed and acceptable proposal to the Iranian regime, and it's in their best interest to accept it. Out of respect for the ongoing deal, the Administration will not comment on details of the proposal to the media.' The proposal that Trump appeared to undercut on Monday evening included significant concessions by the administration certain to anger Israel along with pro-Israel lawmakers in the United States. Several of the main points were essentially the same or very similar to conditions outlined in the 2015 nuclear deal. Early iterations of that agreement negotiated by the Obama administration also suggested the possibility of a regional consortium that would put Iranian uranium enrichment above a certain level under the control of Iran and its neighbors. The idea was scrapped, however, because of Gulf Arab nations' objections and Iranian suspicions of the ultimate aims of the consortium. People who were involved in the 18-month negotiations for the 2015 deal reacted immediately to reports that the Trump administration might allow Iran to continue with an enrichment program at any level, particularly after senior officials repeatedly said Iran would not be able to retain such programs. 'This proposal poses a moment of truth for critics of previous Iran nuclear negotiations/agreements (and) those who have called for a no-enrichment, full-dismantlement deal,' Dan Shapiro, Obama's former ambassador to Israel, wrote on X. 'Will they hold Trump to the same standard?'

The 49ers complete trade to acquire edge rusher Bryce Huff from the Eagles for a mid-round pick
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — The San Francisco 49ers have completed the trade with the Philadelphia Eagles for edge rusher Bryce Huff. Huff restructured his contract with the Eagles last week to help facilitate the trade that will send a 2026 mid-round pick to Philadelphia and the teams announced it on Monday, pending a physical. Huff was set to make $17 million in fully guaranteed money this year. The Eagles will pay $9.05 million of that with the 49ers on the hook for the remaining $7.95 million, ESPN reported last week. The move to acquire Huff gives San Francisco another needed option at edge rusher across from star Nick Bosa and reunites Huff with Robert Saleh, who was his head coach at the New York Jets during his most productive season in 2023. Huff had 10 sacks that season and recorded 67 pressures on just 334 pass rush snaps, according to Pro Football Focus. Huff translated that breakthrough season into a three-year, $51.1 million deal with the Eagles. He had only 2 1/2 sacks and 23 pressures in his one season in Philadelphia, missing five games with a wrist injury. He was then a healthy scratch in the Super Bowl. Huff was originally an undrafted free agent by the Jets in 2020 out of Memphis. He had 7 1/2 sacks in his first three seasons before the breakthrough campaign under Saleh in 2023. The Niners were in need of another pass rusher after cutting Leonard Floyd early in the offseason. They drafted Mykel Williams 11th overall in April but had no other defensive end who had a season with at least five sacks in the NFL. Yetur Gross-Matos is the only other edge rusher on the roster with extensive experience. Gross-Matos had four sacks last season in his first year with San Francisco. The Eagles have undergone significant changes at edge rusher this offseason with Brandon Graham retiring and Josh Sweat leaving to sign with Arizona in free agency. Philadelphia is counting on increased contributions from returning players Nolan Smith and Jalyx Hunt and has also signed Azeez Ojulari and Joshua Uche in free agency. ___ AP NFL:

Max Homa carries his own bag at US Open qualifier after split with caddie
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Max Homa stood out more than usual Monday in a U.S. Open qualifier filled with PGA Tour players. He was the only one carrying his own bag. Homa didn't have a caddie and didn't feel like talking about it, regardless of how much attention it was getting on social media. He and his caddie of two months, Bill Harke, are no longer together, according to a person informed of the split and said only that Harke 'lost his job.' The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because word of the separation needed to come from Homa. And Homa didn't offer much insight. 'I'm much rather talk about the golf instead of all the questions about the caddie,' Homa said. 'I'm good. Just hoofed it 36.' As for the golf? That story wasn't quite over. 'It's going to probably be heartbreaking, but it's all right,' Homa said. 'I haven't carried my bag 36 holes in a while so I'm a little tired.' When asked about his attitude, Homa dropped one clue about the split. 'It seems to be better than when someone is standing next to me for some reason,' he said. 'I might need to walk by myself more. Maybe I just looked at it as a nice, peaceful walk. Probably got to battle some demons and have no one to lean on. Maybe that helps a little bit. There's no one ... everything is me. The battle helped that a little bit.' The qualifier at Kinsale offered six spots to the U.S. Open at Oakmont next week. Homa was around the bubble most of the day. He left a chip in the rough on his ninth hole of the second round and made double bogey, followed that with a bogey and then responded with two straight birdies. He looked to be safe with a second shot into 25 feet on the par-5 ninth hole, his last one. But the uphill putt turned around the hole and came back some 6 feet, and he three-putted for par to finish at 5-under 139. A playoff looked to be his best hope. He would be OK with lugging the bag more holes if it meant going to Oakmont. Homa didn't imagine being in this position a year ago when he was No. 10 in the world. But he has changed equipment and changed coaches. He split with his caddie of six years right before the Masters. And then he had no caddie at all. Homa said he never felt the fatigue because he was around the cutoff line all day, pushing forward. After he three-putted his final hole was when it started to hit him. He said not having anyone to consult over a shot led him to be a little more conservative, not a bad tactic on a course he doesn't know all too well. Asked one last time about the caddie situation, Homa whispered, 'I wanted to carry for 36 holes. Everyone is going to ask me that.' ___ AP golf:
