New clip of Eminem in Happy Gilmore 2 movie

Adam Sandler is swinging back into action as everyone’s beloved anti-golfer in Happy Gilmore 2, premiering on Netflix this July 25. Nearly 30 years after the original’s release in 1996, Sandler reprises his iconic role as Happy, stepping back onto the green—not for laughs, but to pay for his daughter’s ballet education. The sequel, directed by Kyle Newacheck and co-written by Sandler and Tim Herlihy, promises a heartwarming blend of nostalgia and fresh comedic storytelling.

Fans of the original will be thrilled to see familiar faces return. Julie Bowen reprises her role as Happy’s love interest, Virginia, and Christopher McDonald returns as his arch-rival Shooter McGavin. Ben Stiller is back as Hal L., and Dennis Dugan makes a cameo as Doug Thompson, the golf tour commissioner. Even San Francisco–area childhood friend Kevin Nealon pops in. New additions include Benny Safdie in an undisclosed role, music star Bad Bunny as Happy’s caddy, and NFL champ Travis Kelce in a cameo meant to surprise and delight.

The official teaser and full trailers, released earlier this summer, are packed with laugh-out-loud callbacks to the original, along with clever Easter eggs for longtime fans. We get glimpses of Happy’s legendary hockey-stick putter setup, run-and-swing moments, and even some brutal club breaking—classic Gilmore style. Cameos from golf pros like Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau, John Daly, and others lend an authentic pro-golf feel, while appearances by Eminem, Post Malone, and sportscasters Dan Patrick and Verne Lundquist raise the star quotient.

In true Gilmore fashion, the sequel marries playful humor with familial stakes; Happy’s return is motivated by a heartfelt mission to support his daughter Vienna’s ballet dreams. Incorporating his real‑life daughters Sadie and Sunny Sandler into the cast adds a layer of personal depth. Fans of the first film can expect the same rebellious, foul‑mouthed charm, but this time with more mellow wisdom and emotional stakes. All signs point to a legacy sequel that honors its roots while delivering new surprises—just in time for summertime streaming
