Adam Sandler in Happy Gilmore
After dominating charts around the world, this rapper looks to be equally set on dominating the box office. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the record-setting Puerto Rican musician Bad Bunny has just been cast in Adam Sandler’s upcoming comedy Happy Gilmore 2. Specific details about the singer’s exact role in the film have yet to arise.
This casting news got even bigger when it was additionally announced that two original Happy Gilmore stars, Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald will both be reprising their roles from the first film. Bowen, who is perhaps best known for her iconic portrayal of Claire Dunphy in the sitcom Modern Family, made her breakthrough into the world of film when she played Virginia Venit in Happy Gilmore, the PR director of the golf tour as well as Gilmore's main love interest.
The Happy Gilmore 2 script has already been penned by Adam Sandler and Saturday Night Live veteran Tim Herlihy, the same duo responsible for the screenplay of the original Happy Gilmore. The first film's director Dennis Dugan will be returning to executive produce, leaving the title of director to Kyle Newacheck, who partnered previously with Sandler to direct the comedian's 2019 comedy Murder Mystery.
Where Else Have Audiences Seen Bad Bunny? Often called "The King of Latin Trap," Bad Bunny has recently shown an interest in exploring creative careers outside of his field as a singer-songwriter. He made his cinematic debut in the form of a brief cameo in the 2021 Fast & Furious installment F9, credited as a "Lookout.
With more and more casting announcements for Happy Gilmore 2 emerging over the past month — even Sandler's Uncut Gems partner Benny Safdie was recently revealed to have a role — it seems that this anticipated sequel's cast is close to being completely rounded out. Audiences may have a while to wait to see what exactly awaits Gilmore and his companions in this addition to the 1996 smash hit.
