\n\tWho would say no to a \u201cHappy Gilmore\u201d cameo? No one, apparently.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cWe got everybody!\u201d Adam Sandler<\/a> joked to Variety at the \u201cHappy Gilmore 2<\/a>\u201d premiere on Monday night, which boasted an unusually long, 8-page face sheet of talent \u2014 from recurring cast members Julie Bowen, Christopher McDonald and Kevin Nealon to newcomers Benny Safdie and Bad Bunny<\/a>. The film also has dozens of bold-faced cameos, including Alix Earle, \u201cHot Ones\u201d host Sean Evans and several decorated athletes such as Travis Kelce. <\/p>\n \n\tSandler says they wrote a part for Bad Bunny after seeing him as host on \u201cSaturday Night Live\u201d earlier this year. \u201cI saw him and and I couldn\u2019t believe how funny he was,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n \n\tAfter running into each other at a Laker\u2019s game and exchanging pleasantries, Sandler says the pop star\u2019s agent began to continually reach out to find a way to work with the comedian. As luck had it, there was room in the script for a new character and Bad Bunny was top of mind. \u201cWe said, \u2018That\u2019s a great idea,\u2019 so that\u2019s how it happened,\u201d Sandler says. \u201cHe\u2019s doing fine with or without me but I\u2019m happy he\u2019s in this, man.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tOf course, the sequel also stars many of the 1996 film\u2019s original cast, including Mcdonald, who plays the villainous Shooter McGavin and Bowen, who plays Sandler\u2019s love interest Virginia Venit in the original. \u201cWhen he asks, you say yes,\u201d Bowen told Variety about getting the call from Sandler about the sequel. \u201cNo one says no \u2014 you\u2019d be high to say no.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cMy kids told me I\u2019d never be in it because I\u2019m too old\u2026assholes,\u201d she joked. \u201cBut yeah, when he called, I said, \u2018Whenever you need me, however you want it.’\u201d<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cHappy Gilmore 2\u201d is part of Sandler\u2019s mega-deal with Netflix which will see eight movies made for the streamer under the comedian\u2019s Happy Madison Productions. So, which of Sandler\u2019s iconic films is getting the sequel treatment next?<\/p>\n \n\tWhen asked about a sequel to \u201cBilly Madison,\u201d arguably his most beloved comedy, he says: \u201cLet\u2019s write it tonight!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Who would say no to a \u201cHappy Gilmore\u201d cameo?
