Adam Sandler Shares ‘Happy Gilmore 2’ Teaser With Travis Kelce, Shooter McGavin

Adam Sandler just made sure fans had one Happy holiday by taking a first look at the sequel to one of his most beloved comedies.

The Sandman shared a teaser for Happy Gilmore 2 on his Instagram on Wednesday and wrote alongside it, “Happy Chanukah! Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays! And Happy Gilmore to everyone!!!!!!”

The sneak peek at the upcoming Netflix film — a follow-up to the 1996 comedy starring Sandler as a short-tempered wannabe hockey player who uses his slap shot skills to become a professional golfer — shows Happy back on the golf course in his Boston Bruins jersey.

The short clip offers a glimpse of NFL star Travis Kelce, months after Sandler revealed the Kansas City Chiefs tight end had a role in the upcoming film. “It’s good to see you back, Mr. Gilmore,” says Kelce, donning what appears to be a waiter’s uniform.

Sandler previously said he had considered casting Taylor Swift’s main squeeze as his son in the film. “We thought, ‘Imagine if Travis was my first baby, how much fun would that be?’ Just a badass,” Sandler said in an episode of Travis and Jason Kelce’s New heights podcast. In a previous podcast episode, the Super Bowl champ had dismissed rumors that he had been cast, but asked for a part, saying, “I didn’t even know there was an opening for Happy Gilmore 2but if there is i’ll be a f—ing extra. Anything to get around Happy Gilmore, an Adam Sandler movie or scene – count me in.”

The teaser also sees the return of Modern Family stars Julie Bowen as PR executive Virginia Venit, who is also Happy’s love interest, and ends with a graveyard fight between Happy and his old rival Shooter McGavin (Christopher McDonald).

New to the sequel cast include Bad Bunny (shown as a caddy in the teaser), Margaret Qualley, Scott Mescudi (aka rapper Kid Cudi), Benny Safdie and Nick Swardson.

Happy Gilmore was it Saturday Night Live all-star’s second major film as writer and star after the 1995s Billy Madison. It premiered in February 1996 and grossed more than $41 million worldwide. The movie, with a scene-stealing cameo from late The price is right host Bob Barker, endures as an oft-quoted comedy hit.
