Get ready to dust off your putters—Happy is back! Nearly 30 years after Adam Sandler first took a swing at the PGA Tour (and a few people along the way), Happy Gilmore 2 is finally heading to screens. Netflix has released the first teaser trailer for the highly anticipated sequel, and it looks like the legendary hothead of the green hasn’t lost his edge.
Set to premiere on July 25, 2025, the film sees Adam Sandler reprising his role as the foul-mouthed, hockey-stick-wielding golfer who stole hearts and broke clubs back in 1996. The teaser offers a nostalgic rush as Happy dons his iconic Boston Bruins jersey and returns to the golf course to settle some unfinished business.
Fan-favorite cast members Julie Bowen (Virginia Venit) and Christopher McDonald (Shooter McGavin) are back in the mix, joined by a surprising mix of newcomers, including NFL superstar Travis Kelce, international music icon Bad Bunny, and none other than Eminem, whose cameo is already causing a stir online. The film also boasts appearances from real-world pro golfers like Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, and Bryson DeChambeau, adding some PGA pedigree to Happy’s chaotic comeback.

Happy Gilmore 2 is co-written by Sandler and longtime collaborator Tim Herlihy, with original director Dennis Dugan returning as executive producer. According to early buzz, the film will follow Happy as he squares off against a new generation of players in a sport that’s changed dramatically since he first swung for the fences.
The teaser trailer blends classic slapstick with a dash of sentimentality, suggesting that this isn’t just a sequel—it’s a legacy piece. Whether you’re here for the golf, the laughs, or just to see Shooter McGavin get his comeuppance (again), Happy Gilmore 2 looks like it’s shaping up to be one of 2025’s most talked-about comedies.
