Adam Sandler subtly pays tribute to the late Cameron Boyce, his former costar in "Grown Ups," with a small moment in Netflix's "Happy Gilmore 2."

Boyce played Keithie Feder, son of Sandler’s character Lenny Feder, in “Grown Ups” and “Grown Ups 2.” Both movies were directed by original “Happy Gilmore” director Dennis Dugan. Sandler and “ Happy Gilmore 2 ″ director Kyle Newacheck filmed the sequel in New Jersey last fall.

Happy Gilmore 2 just dropped on Netflix, and while it’s probably not going to win any Oscars, most fans seem to be really pleased with the sequel, me included. It’s a goofy good time with some big laughs and a ton of cameos and returning characters. It also includes one big WTF death scene that left me and the actress involved absolutely shocked.

Happy Gilmore 2 was released on July 25, 2025, on Netflix. The movie, which is directed by Kyle Newacheck, has Adam Sandler playing Happy Gilmore again. Happy goes back to the golf course after almost three decades.

A Netflix sequel to Adam Sandler’s hit 1996 film briefly recaptures the warm silliness of the original, before devolving into a lazy fever dream of cameos.

Long-time Sandler collaborator Steve Buscemi makes an early cameo in "Happy Gilmore 2." After Happy loses his grandma's house for a second time following Virginia's death, he and his daughter are forced to move to a seedier side of town. Buscemi plays their new oddball neighbor.

A lot of professional golfers made cameos in "Happy Gilmore 2," but one of them impressed Scottie Scheffler the most with how funny his part was.

Happy Gilmore 2 is finally here, and the long-awaited sequel to one of Adam Sandler's funniest movies has plenty more great jokes to tell.
