New clip features Bad Bunny as Gilmore’s caddie along with returning cast Julie Bowen, Ben Stiller, and Christopher McDonald
Adam Sandler’s Happy Gilmore is hitting the green nearly three decades later to stage a golf comeback, and he’s bringing along a cavalcade of stars in the official trailer for Happy Gilmore 2.
“Even when you’re at the top of your game, you can always shank one,” the failed-hockey-player-turned-golf-pro says, setting the scene for the challenges ahead. In the sequel, Gilmore needs to raise $300,000 for his daughter’s (played by real life daughter Sunny Sandler) ballet school tuition, so he decides to take another swing at golf for the tournament cash.
Like in the original, Gilmore continues to fly off the handle when things don’t go as he plans, and some of the original cast — including Julie Bowen (who portrays love interest Virginia Venit), Christopher McDonald (playing nemesis Shooter McGavin), and Ben Stiller (as the cantankerous orderly Hal) — reprise their roles and appear in the new clip.
There are also a slew of newcomers for the sequel, including Bad Bunny, Gilmore’s caddie, whom he just met and is breaking in during the tour championship. Eric André, Margaret Qualley, Martin Herlihy, Eminem, Post Malone, Travis Kelce, and Kevin Nealon are among the cavalcade of stars who make appearances in the new trailer for the film.
Sandler teamed with his co-writer for the original, Tim Herlihy, to co-write the screenplay for the sequel. The Kyle Newacheck-directed film arrives via Netflix on July 25.
