Here’s Netflix’s official recap of the unique Happy Gilmore, in case you’ve forgotten what occurred all these years in the past.
At the tip of the unique Happy Gilmore, Sandler’s titular character was lastly at relaxation after an extended, strenuous season of golf (and one knockdown brawl with The Price Is Right’s Bob Barker). On a mission to boost sufficient cash to pay the IRS for his grandmother’s years of delinquent again taxes (oops), the failed hockey participant took his abilities on the street as probably the most unorthodox golf participant the Tour Championship had ever seen.
Along the way in which, Happy made allies (the late, nice Carl Weathers’ one-handed Chubbs Petersen and a homeless caddy performed by Allen Covert) and enemies (Christopher McDonald’s conceited Shooter McGavin and the aforementioned Bob Barker), however he finally triumphed within the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. He confirmed the golf snobs who’s boss, saved his grandmother’s home, and returned residence ultimately.
It’s presently unclear how the movie will resurrect Gilmore’s golf profession, however one factor’s for certain: In the actual world, at the least, Happy Gilmore is a legend. Even the world’s greatest golfers agree.
We first discovered that Happy Gilmore 2 was within the works again in March 2024 earlier than Netflix introduced in May that it had formally ordered the sequel. It’s being directed by Kyle Newacheck from a script by Sandler and Tim Herlihy.
