Adam Sandler previously revealed that Eminem would have a minor role in “Happy Gilmore 2” during an interview with Dan Patrick.
Eminem is bringing his brash hip-hop alter ego to Adam Sandler’s new film, Happy Gilmore 2. This of course is the long-awaited sequel to the comedian’s 1996 classic. It’s been in the works a for a little while now, and an idea that Sandler has been throwing around since 2021.
It was claimed by Christopher McDonald, who played Shooter McGavin, that a script was shown to him by Sandler last March. In the coming months, it would be confirmed that the film would be on the way. Netflix would be the ones to swoop in to take the picture in May, eliminating the possibility of a big screen release.
In mid-December of 2024, Adam Sandler called into the Dan Patrick Show to talk a little bit about the movie’s progress. He revealed that filming was just about done but wasn’t able to confirm a solid release date. “I don’t know 100%, but I think around July. Not July 4, but we’re trying to get it done in time for July. (But) you never know what’s going to happen. We’re just finishing today,” he said.
But thanks to the release of the first official trailer for Happy Gilmore 2, we now know it’s coming July 25. Something we also get to see is Eminem’s role that Sandler promised during that aforementioned interview, as caught by XXL.
