‘They’re so professional and yet so fun to work with,’ Kelce shared. ‘I felt like I was working with like the [Kansas City Chiefs’ coach] Andy Reid of the acting world. [Sandler] is every bit as cool off the screen as he is on the screen.

‘That was a dream come true,’ he continued. ‘That was awesome.’

Besides Kelce, the film stars Ben Stiller, Julie Bowen, Christopher McDonald, Jacqueline Sophia London, Benny Safdie, and Nick Swardson.

Although the plot for the sequel has not been disclosed, the 1996 original followed a H๏τ-headed hockey player who turned into a professional golfer to save his grandmother’s house from foreclosure.

Happy Gilmore was directed by Dennis Dugan and grossed $41million at the global box office despite having a $12m budget.

Netflix announced the sequel was in the works in May 2024, with Sandler reprising his role as the protagonist. In August, Sandler confirmed that Kelce would appear in the film.
