A Swing at Nostalgia
Netflix, in a move that's got everyone talking, announced at its upfront presentation that "Happy Gilmore 2" is on the way, and yes, Sandler is on board!
Remember when 'Happy Gilmore' discovered his unique golfing talent after a less-than-stellar hockey career? Well, get ready for another round because Netflix is keeping the storyline under wraps, and the suspense is killing us! What we do know is that Sandler's knack for blending humor with heart is set to make a major comeback.
And if that's not exciting enough, Drew Barrymore dropped a not-so-subtle hint on her talk show, sending the rumor mill into overdrive. "This just in... [Happy Gilmore 2] is in process," she teased. Could we be seeing a reunion of the dynamic duo from "The Wedding Singer"? Only time will tell!
Christopher McDonald, the unforgettable Shooter McGavin, has also hinted at his return. "McDonald, you're gonna love this," Sandler reportedly told him, showing off the first draft of the sequel. If that's not a reason to celebrate, what is?
McDonald first stirred up rumors of a sequel in March, when he revealed that Sandler pulled out the first draft for the film during an unexpected run-in.
"I saw Adam [Sandler] about two weeks ago, and he says to me, ‘McDonald, you’re gonna love this,’" McDonald said. "I said, ‘What?’ He says, ‘How about that,’ and he shows me the first draft of ‘Happy Gilmore 2.’ Maybe you should cut that out [of this audio] because I don’t wanna be a liar, but he did show me that, and I thought, ‘Well, that would be awesome.’ So, it’s in the works. Fans demand it, dammit!"
'Happy Gilmore' made nearly $40 million at the worldwide box office in 1996, helping cement Sandler as one of the biggest comedy stars of the decade.
Adam Sandler's $250 million deal with Netflix has been nothing short of spectacular, producing hits and bringing his unique brand of comedy to screens worldwide. From 'The Ridiculous Six' to the touching 'Sandy Wexler and the critically acclaimed "100% Fresh," Sandler has proven time and again that he's a force to be reckoned with.
And with 'Happy Gilmore 2,' it looks like he's about to score another hole-in-one.
