In a surprising yet exciting move, the Bad Bunny, a Grammy Award-winning rapper of Puerto Rican origin, announced his featuring in the long-awaited movie Happy Gilmore 2 with Adam Sandler. With the news spreading like wildfire, fans of the classic comedy of 1996 and the international superstar have started to converse with each other.
Adam Sandler’s Happy Gilmore is one of the most iconic sports comedies of the ’90s. In the original film, Happy Gilmore is a violent hockey player who is astonishingly good at golf. The film is filled with many comedic moments, including the extremely hyper-violent antics and signature Sandler humor. Fans have long wondered if there would ever be an official sequel, and close to three decades later, that thought has come to pass.
The much-touted second installment of Happy Gilmore now boasts Bad Bunny in another bold step into his already burgeoning acting career. Having proved himself on the small screen with Narcos: Mexico and sharing the same frame with Brad Pitt for the film Bullet Train, the rapper born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio was considered a shoo-in for this role. He is lauded for his smooth transition between the entertainment world and the acting world, and an assignment to a comedy like Happy Gilmore 2 proves just how easily he can handle different types of roles.
Although details of Happy Gilmore 2 are still kept in the dark, the dynamics of Adam Sandler and Happy Gilmore to Bad Bunny’s character will indeed bring new energy to the movie. It is believed that Bad Bunny could play a golfer rising star or perhaps a rival, and this will add an interesting twist in the storyline of Happy Gilmore 2. Sandler, again playing Happy, will also produce the film for his production company, Happy Madison.
It’s sure to bring together two worlds: the world of Adam Sandler and the world of Bad Bunny. That’s quite a dangerous combination because their comedy legacy together with Bad Bunny’s international appeal will draw a diverse crowd once again onto the dance floor, a mixture of nostalgia and modern pop culture.
As the anticipation mounts, Happy Gilmore 2 is going to be one of the most popularly discussed movies ever made. This will be one of the most-awaited sequels around because either you have been a die-hard fan of the original or are a new member who has been inducted by the growing Hollywood presence of Bad Bunny. Happy Gilmore 2 is going to rip your guts and serve some real laughs and actions.
