Adam Sandler Admits He Had Travis Kelce In Mind For Happy Gilmore 2, And Apparently The Tight End Has The Golf Swing For It

As a long-time fan of both Adam Sandler’s comedic genius and Travis Kelce’s athletic prowess, I can hardly contain my excitement for what 2025 has in store! The prospect of seeing Happy Gilmore back on the green, this time with Travis Kelce swinging his proverbial clubs, is nothing short of exhilarating. It seems that the stars have aligned for a perfect blend of humor and sportsmanship, and I can’t help but wonder if this collaboration will result in a hole-in-one for both parties involved.


It seems like fans of Adam Sandler and Travis Kelce could have a delightful time ahead as the 2025 movie schedule appears to be shaping up in their favor. With “Happy Gilmore 2” commencing production soon, serving as a sequel-legacy to one of the most beloved ’90s films, there’s exciting news for Kelce; he’s set to appear on the film set, having secured a small role.

It’s quite unexpected that not only had the SNL writer been preparing this for a while, but Travis Kelce also demonstrates impressive golfing skills on the course. The long-anticipated Happy Gilmore 2 role for Travis Kelce has now been confirmed, and even the Sandman himself recently appeared on the Kelce Brothers’ New Heights podcast to discuss it.

The timing for the hosts to air that specific episode was impeccable, considering Wondery’s recent acquisition of the Kelce Brothers’ podcast. Making a discussion with the Uncut Gems actor who shared details about his role in script development for an upcoming Adam Sandler movie is now an even more thrilling interview opportunity.

Approximately half a year back, we had a conversation about your potential role as my son in our work. We jokingly speculated, “What if Travis was your first child? Isn’t that amusing? Absolutely cool!”

It seems that Travis Kelce, the football player, won’t be taking on a role as Ben Stiller’s son or apprentice in the Happy Madison universe. However, it remains uncertain if Jason Kelce, his brother and former Philadelphia Eagles center, has any involvement in the potential sequel to Happy Gilmore.

Let’s discuss Travis Kelce’s golf abilities briefly, as it seems unexpected. If we take Travis at his word and measure his claims in standard golf terms (yards), then it’s clear that Taylor’s boyfriend boasts quite an impressive drive. Here’s what he shared about his golf game:

I’ve mastered the technique well enough to hit the ball around 320 yards consistently from the tee. However, my score might still be three holes higher than par, or it could be almost at the hole – it varies from one round to another.

Not only could he pull it off with a heavy heart, but he’d likely manage even if circumstances were tough. The distance given seems impressive considering the average Driver range is about 260 yards. However, as Travis Kelce pointed out, the real determining factor is the direction of his well-powered shot once it’s been released into play.

From the chat between Adam Sandler and the Kelce Brothers, it’s evident things are shaping up positively. However, there’s a lingering apprehension about “Happy Gilmore 2”. Despite this, there seems to be a strong camaraderie among everyone present, which you can sense in this clip from the latest episode of “New Heights”.

Although an official release date for Happy Gilmore 2 hasn’t been set yet, the planned start of production soon may indicate that it’s likely we’ll see Happy back on the golf course in 2025. Keep an eye out, but be aware that Travis Kelce’s football season commitments could limit his availability for filming, making him less readily available than typical movie stars.

If you’re a fan of Adam Sandler, it might be beneficial for you to maintain an active Netflix subscription. This way, you can easily rewatch some of his originals like “Hustle” and “Murder Mystery” when you have spare time. Moreover, once “Happy Gilmore 2” arrives on the platform, you’ll be ready to play your role immediately.
