Happy Gilmore 2 | Streaming July 25, 2025 on Netflix
Nearly 30 years later, the iconic golf comedy returns! Adam Sandler reprises his fan-favorite role as the hot-headed hockey player turned unconventional golf star in Happy Gilmore 2, premiering July 25, 2025, exclusively on Netflix. This long-awaited sequel to the 1996 cult comedy classic is set to bring back the laughs, the nostalgia, and a whole new swing of family drama.
Plot: Happy’s Back on the Green—For Family
In Happy Gilmore 2, Happy is older, wiser (maybe), and semi-retired—living a quieter life until a new challenge pulls him back into the game. When his daughter’s dance school is at risk of shutting down, Happy dusts off his clubs to return to the pro golf circuit. But old rivals, outrageous antics, and unexpected obstacles await.
This time, the stakes are personal—and so is the journey. In a heartfelt twist, Sandler’s real-life daughter Sunny Sandler plays Happy’s daughter, adding a touching father-daughter dynamic to the laugh-out-loud madness.
