The full trailer for Adam Sandler's Happy Gilmore 2 will see Sandler reunite with original cast Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald. Bowen returns as Virginia Venit, Happy’s love interest and PR-savvy ally, while McDonald reprises his role as the iconic and hilariously smug Shooter McGavin.

At Netflix's TUDUM event on Saturday night, where ScreenRant was in attendance, the streamer unveiled the official trailer for Happy Gilmore 2, teasing a new era for Happy filled with his classic sports rage, as well as returning characters and cameos, including Margaret Qualley, Bad Bunny, Ben Stiller, and Sunny and Sadie Sandler, Marcello Hernandez, and more. The film is set to premiere on July 25, only on Netflix. Check the trailer out below:

What The Trailer Reveals About Happy Gilmore 2

Adam Sandler Is Back In His Element

The newly released trailer reveals that Happy's return to the golf course is driven by a heartfelt mission: raising money for his daughter Vienna's (Sunny Sandler) ballet school tuition, which is $75,000 a year. Sandler effortlessly slips back into his chaotic, short-tempered sports comedy persona, bringing Happy's trademark slapstick energy to a new generation of golf chaos. His new motivation adds an emotional layer to the sports comedy, showcasing a perhaps more mature side of Happy as he tries to balance his antics with fatherly responsibilities.

Netflix's Happy Gilmore 2 seems to be a sequel that's deeply rooted in what made the original so beloved. With returning favorites like Shooter McGavin and Virginia back in the mix, the sequel is clearly catering to those who love the 1996 original while still offering new material. From Happy's signature slapshot swing to Shooter McGavin's smug antics, the trailer is filled with nostalgic callbacks. While the original Happy Gilmore featured several celebrity cameos, based on the official trailer, the sequel is set to feature even more.

Our Take On The Happy Gilmore 2 Trailer

The Sequel Will Blend Nostalgia With New Sports Mayhem

Not every comedy from the '90s needs a sequel, but Happy Gilmore might be the exception. The original remains a cult classic, quoted endlessly and fondly ed for its ridiculousness and scrappy underdog vibe. From what the Happy Gilmore 2 trailer shows, Sandler and company are not trying to reinvent the wheel; they're just simply giving fans another round of what they love, with a modern edge. If the sequel can balance the humor, absurd sports chaos, and its heart, it might just end up being one of Sandler's most successful Netflix ventures yet.
