Tee up! Happy Gilmore 2 is officially in the works on Netflix

Get your golf balls and golf clubs ready because, after 30 years, everyone’s favorite ‘long-driving hero”, Happy Gilmore, is returning to Netflix in a sequel.

Netflix and Adam Sandler have officially confirmed that Happy Gilmore 2 has begun production.

“At the end of the original Happy Gilmore , Sandler’s titular character was finally at rest after a long, strenuous season of golf . On a mission to raise enough money to pay the IRS for his grandmother’s years of delinquent back taxes (oops), the failed hockey player took his skills on the road as the most unorthodox golf player the Tour Championship had ever seen. ” said a press release from Netflix.

In a post on Instagram , Adam Sandler said, “It ain’t over. The way I see it… we’ve only just begun.”

At this point, no release date has been set and it is unclear what the storyline of the sequel will be.

“One thing’s for sure: In the real world, at least, Happy Gilmore is a legend…”, said Netflix.
