The real Barker died two years ago in 2023, at the age of 99. But Sandler pays tribute to their epic fight in Happy Gilmore 2, with a new fight, this time between Gilmore and his longtime rival, Shooter McGavin, played once again by the hilarious Christopher McDonald.
Steve Buscemi, Margaret Qualley and Bad Bunny are just some of the famous faces to appear alongside Adam Sandler in Netflix sequel "Happy Gilmore 2."
After much anticipation and a 29-year wait, Adam Sandler returned as the hot-tempered, big-hitting golf legend in “Happy Gilmore 2,” released on Netflix on Friday. As expected, the film was chock-full of cameos, many of them by real-life golfers and several of them with strong ties to the D-FW area.
“Happy Gilmore 2,” the newly released Netflix sequel to Adam Sandler’s 1996 golf comedy, is a lot like its star: A little bit flabbier, a little bit shabbier, but still undeniably funny after all these years.
WNBA star and Los Angeles Sparks veteran Kelsey Plum has some sweet screen action, too. Plum, a two-time WNBA champion and four-time All-Star, was traded to the Sparks by the Las Vegas Aces in January. More recently, she's perhaps most well-known for trolling Caitlin Clark.
