Adam Sandler Confirms Travis Kelce Cameo in Happy Gilmore 2

As a devoted cinema enthusiast with over three decades of movie-watching under my belt, I must say that the announcement of “Happy Gilmore 2” has me both excited and skeptical. On one hand, the original film is a classic comedy that’s near and dear to my heart, and the prospect of seeing Adam Sandler reprise his iconic role is tantalizing. The addition of Travis Kelce, a man who’s proven himself both on the football field and in the dating game with Taylor Swift, adds an intriguing twist.

The second installment of “Happy Gilmore,” titled so, is scheduled to begin filming next month. However, before the project kicks off, it has been announced that Travis Kelce, a star player for the Kansas City Chiefs, will make an appearance in the upcoming sequel. Previously this year, Netflix gave the go-ahead for the movie, with Adam Sandler returning to portray the lead character from the 1996 comedy hit, which is to be helmed by Kyle Newacheck, known for his work on FX’s “What We Do in the Shadows.”

On “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”, Sandler mentioned that they have a special project for Travis Kelce. He added that Kelce will stop by. Sandler highly praised Kelce, who gained fame during the 2023-24 NFL season due to the exceptional performance of the Chiefs, and also for his high-profile relationship with international sensation Taylor Swift.

As a film enthusiast, let me tell you, this fellow is an absolute charm. I’m confident that you’d find him delightful in person too. He’s quite the imposing figure with his towering stature, but don’t let that intimidate you – he’s got a heart of gold. His humor is infectious, and his cool demeanor is captivating. In essence, he’s the embodiment of charisma, a true stud, and his wit will leave you in stitches.

Adam Sandler teamed up with Tim Herlihy to pen the script for “Happy Gilmore 2”. He hinted that some real-life golf pros might make an appearance in the film. For now, specifics about the plot are being kept secret, but production is slated to start next month and continue until November. This suggests that we might see it on Netflix sometime in 2025.

Adam Sandler Doesn’t Want to Let Anybody Down With Happy Gilmore 2

Happy Gilmore, often acclaimed as one of Adam Sandler’s funniest movies, focuses on a former hockey player-turned golfer who unexpectedly excels in the professional circuit, much to the dismay of longtime players. The film is cherished by many for an iconic scene featuring a brawl between Sandler and the late Bob Barker. In addition to Sandler, Happy Gilmore featured Christopher McDonald as Shooter McGavin, Happy’s main rival. Although it hasn’t been officially announced, indications suggest that McDonald may return for the sequel, hinting at his character’s antagonism towards Sandler’s character on social media.

Sandler expresses his goal of creating something that won’t disappoint anyone, which is the reason behind the lengthy 30-year development process for the project. When an idea finally materialized, with the potential focus on Happy competing in a senior golf tournament, he and Herlihy strove to deliver a sequel worth fans’ time and appreciation.

“We’ve put in a lot of effort into this script, and we didn’t want to disappoint anyone. For a long time, people have been asking me about Happy Gilmore 2, but I always felt I would let you down. However, my friend Tim Herlihy and I came up with the idea, and we’re really enthusiastic about it. We’ve worked tirelessly on it, and we’re still trying to create a movie that you will enjoy.”

Without a doubt, following the triumph of Netflix’s recent sequel to another popular franchise, “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F,” expectations are running high for the upcoming “Happy Gilmore 2.” After a long wait, we’ll share updates on the production, including set developments, an official release date, and a trailer as they’re announced.
