Adam Sandler Cast Margaret Qualley in Happy Gilmore 2 Based on a Total Lie

As a lifelong fan of Happy Gilmore, I couldn’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of excitement and nostalgia when I heard that Margaret Qualley had joined the cast for the long-awaited sequel. The original movie was not only a staple of my childhood, but also the source of my first crush on Adam Sandler’s titular character.


As a film enthusiast, I’m no stranger to the fact that many actors occasionally pad their resumes to boost their chances of getting cast. In an intriguing twist, it seems that Margaret Qualley may have done just that to secure a spot in the highly anticipated Happy Gilmore 2. This talented actress is joining forces with Adam Sandler (the one and only Happy Gilmore) and Christopher McDonald (our beloved Shooter McGavin) for this long-awaited sequel. In the original film, Happy Gilmore transitioned from hockey to golf when his career took a turn, and it appears that in real life, Margaret is embarking on a similar journey to prepare herself for her yet-to-be-revealed role.

On “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon”, Margaret Qualley shared that she had landed a role in “Happy Gilmore 2”. She confessed to using a slightly deceptive method to secure the part. Her agent contacted Adam Sandler and the film’s producers. In response, her husband, musician Jack Antonoff, received a text from Sandler, querying if Qualley knew how to play golf. To support his wife in pursuing one of her dream jobs, Antonoff truthfully answered on her behalf, helping Qualley secure the role. The actress reminisced about the exchange, stating:

As a dedicated movie enthusiast, the moment I learned about Happy Gilmore 2, I immediately reached out to my agents, expressing my eagerness: “Whatever the cost – even if it means taking on the smallest role – I must be a part of this production. I beg you, please let me join in. I’m prepared to do whatever it takes.

Following Jimmy Fallon displaying a text conversation between Jack Antonoff and Adam Sandler, Margaret Qualley disclosed a shocking secret that might jeopardize her part. The actress openly shared:

He fabricated the truth to protect our family’s well-being. … I’ve never swung a golf club before, and honestly, I’m quite awful at it. In fact, I took some lessons, but despite that, I’m still pretty lousy at it.

Margaret Qualley’s part in the upcoming film remains undisclosed for now, but during a recent interview, she disclosed that it’s just a minor role initially. Given her growing stardom in Hollywood, there’s speculation that Qualley may secure a more significant role in the movie. Despite this, Qualley considers working on “Happy Gilmore 2” as the pinnacle of her career. As a fan of the original film and having had a crush on Adam Sandler’s character, this opportunity has made her career dreams come true for her, regardless of the size of the role. She stated:

“It was the best thing that ever happened to me. It’s a tiny part. I’m essentially deep background. But, I can die happy now. [Happy Gilmore] is my first crush. It’s my favorite movie. And I adore Adam Sandler.”

Margaret Qualley is not the only fresh face added to the lineup of Happy Gilmore 2. Alongside returning stars such as Adam Sandler, Christopher McDonald, Ben Stiller, and Julie Bowen, newcomers Benny Safdie, Lee Travino, Bad Bunny, and Travis Kelce have also signed on. No specifics about the storyline have been disclosed yet. Filming for Happy Gilmore 2 commenced earlier this month.
