‘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.

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.
