Happy Gilmore 2 trailer reveals Adam Sandler’s return, PGA cameos, and Netflix release date

Adam Sandler is stepping back onto the golf course in Happy Gilmore 2, with Netflix confirming the long-awaited sequel will premiere on July 25. While Netflix’s synopsis keeps the plot under wraps, the trailer hints at Happy Gilmore’s return to the golf course, where he takes on PGA professionals amid moments of self-doubt.

Returning cast members include Julie Bowen, Christopher McDonald, and Ben Stiller. The film also introduces new faces, such as music artist Bad Bunny, NFL star Travis Kelce, and Sandler’s daughters, Sadie and Sunny. Real-life golf champions John Daly, Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, and Bryson DeChambeau are also set to appear.

Sandler first hinted at the sequel during an interview on The Tonight Show, revealing that he and his team had put significant effort into crafting a worthy follow-up to the 1996 classic. “We worked hard on the script. We didn’t want to let anybody down,” Sandler said. “So many of the golfers are being nice and will be a part of it.”

The film is directed by Kyle Newacheck, known for Murder Mystery, and co-written by Sandler and Tim Herlihy, who also penned the original film. Dennis Dugan, director of the 1996 comedy, returns as an executive producer.

With the official trailer now out, anticipation builds for Sandler’s long-awaited return to one of his most beloved roles. Happy Gilmore 2 is set to tee off on Netflix this July.
