Author : Matthew Apr 16,2025

Netflix has unveiled the much-anticipated trailer for *Happy Gilmore 2*, set to premiere on the streaming platform on July 25, 2025. In this exciting sequel, Adam Sandler reprises his iconic role as Happy Gilmore, nearly three decades following the beloved 1996 original. Fans will be thrilled to see familiar faces like Julie Bowen, Ben Stiller, and Christopher McDonald, who returns as the formidable rival, Shooter McGavin.

The trailer also introduces new co-stars, including Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio (known as Bad Bunny), Adam Sandler's daughters Sadie and Sunny Sandler, and Blake Clark. Adding a playful touch, the trailer starts with a fun SpongeBob SquarePants reference.

Netflix has confirmed the participation of professional golfers in the film, such as John Daly, Paige Spiranac, Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau, Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas, and Will Zalatoris. Additionally, NFL star Travis Kelce makes a cameo appearance.

The cast of *Happy Gilmore 2* includes:

  • Adam Sandler
  • Christopher McDonald
  • Julie Bowen
  • Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio
  • Travis Kelce
  • Conor Sherry
  • Ethan Cutowsky
  • Maxwell Jacob Friedman
  • Philip Fine Schneider
  • Rory McIlroy
  • Scottie Scheffler
  • Bryson DeChambeau
  • Brooks Koepka
  • Justin Thomas
  • Will Zalatoris
  • Ben Stiller
  • Blake Clark
  • Paige Spiranac
  • Sunny Sandler
  • Sadie Sandler
  • John Daly

Notably absent from the current cast list is rapper Eminem, despite Sandler mentioning his cameo last year. Perhaps Netflix is keeping his involvement under wraps for a future trailer reveal.

For those needing a refresher on the original *Happy Gilmore*, here’s Netflix’s official recap:

At the end of the original Happy Gilmore, Sandler’s titular character was finally at rest after a long, strenuous season of golf (and one knockdown brawl with The Price Is Right’s Bob Barker). On a mission to raise enough money to pay the IRS for his grandmother’s years of delinquent back taxes (oops), the failed hockey player took his skills on the road as the most unorthodox golf player the Tour Championship had ever seen.

Along the way, Happy made allies (the late, great Carl Weathers’ one-handed Chubbs Petersen and a homeless caddy played by Allen Covert) and enemies (Christopher McDonald’s arrogant Shooter McGavin and the aforementioned Bob Barker), but he ultimately triumphed in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. He showed the golf snobs who’s boss, saved his grandmother’s house, and returned home at last.

It’s currently unclear how the film will resurrect Gilmore’s golf career, but one thing’s for sure: In the real world, at least, Happy Gilmore is a legend. Even the world’s best golfers agree.

We first learned that *Happy Gilmore 2* was in development back in March 2024, with Netflix officially ordering the sequel in May. The film is being directed by Kyle Newacheck, with a script penned by Adam Sandler and Tim Herlihy.
