Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau feature in new Happy Gilmore trailer
Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau will feature in Happy Gilmore 2 alongside Adam Sandler. Netflix released the trailer for the highly-anticipated sequel of the hit film on Tuesday showing the golfing greates in quick successive cuts taking swings. The sequel follows the hit film, which was released in 1996Netflix McIlroy is set to feature in the film for at least one secondNetflix It is unknown how much screen time the pros have but golf fans will hope it is more than a few seconds. With what can be gathered from the trailer, Sandler’s character Gilmore has returned to the sport after years of not competing to face today’s PGA greats while battling self-doubt. And of course he’s sporting his usual casual look of baggy trousers and tops, as well as Timberland shoes, rather than the traditional golf attire we see on tour. Happy Gilmore 2 is set to release on Netflix Friday 25 July, 29 years after the first film was released. The sequel will also feature returning cast members Julie Bowen, Christopher McDonald and Ben Stiller. NFL star and boyfriend of Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce is rumoured to be in the movie alongside singer Bad Bunny, who was also shown in the trailer snapping a golf stick with his knee. The new release is co-written by the original film writer Tim Herlihy and Adam Sandler, while Dennis Dugan, the previous director, is now an executive producer. During an appearance on ‘The Tonight Show’, Sandler said: “It’s good. We worked hard on the script. We didn’t want to let anybody down. “People have been asking me for a long time. We’re really excited about it. We wrote our a***s off. So many of the golfers are being nice and will be a part of it.” The trailer was released a day after Mcllroy claimed his second victory at TPC Sawgrass and a 28th on the PGA Tour on Monday. As well as McIlroy, world no.1 ranked men’s golfer Scheffler will featureNetflix As well as two-time US Open winner DechambeauNetflix After finishing the final round level with JJ Spaun on 12 under, the pair contested a three-hole play-off on St. Patrick’s Day. Northern Ireland’s McIlroy held his nerve to clinch the title after Spaun’s tee shot on the 17th found the water, leading to a triple bogey. However, the 35-year-old’s win only came after he paid over $1,000 for an Uber to deliver his old clubs. The driver brought the clubs from McIlroy’s home 150 miles away in Jupiter, Florida to the course in Ponte Vedra Beach. The price was more than worth it as he later won $4.5million (£3.5m). Mcllroy has claimed 28 tour wins, including four Majors, during his 18-year professional career.
