Eminem is going from the stage to the golf course!
During an appearance on The Dan Patrick Show last week, Adam Sandler revealed that the rapper makes a cameo in the upcoming, long-awaited Happy Gilmore 2 film. “Eminem was cool, he came by, he was great,” Sandler raved of Em, adding, “I’ve known Eminem for a long time, he’s a great guy and he came in and was funny as hell,” he said. “I think we just hung out a day with Eminem and he just shot and shot and he was insane. [He] said a million things we can use and a million that we’re glad we have him on tape.”
He did not, however, reveal what role Eminem would play in the sequel of the 1996 golf-themed comedy, which Sandler co-wrote, produced and starred in. The film follows wannabe hockey player and titular character Happy Gilmore, as he takes up golfing in an attempt to make money to save his grandmother’s home from foreclosure.
In addition to Eminem and Sandler, Dan Patrick, Margaret Qualley and Christopher McDonald will all be appearing in the forthcoming sequel, which was announced in May by Netflix.
Back in August, Sandler also discussed another superstar cameo: Travis Kelce. During a Tonight Show appearance, the comedian shared of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, “He’s a very nice guy. You guys would love him in real life. What a big, handsome guy. Funny and cool as hell. He’s a stud and he’s so funny.”
