Kid Cudi Joins The Cast Of ‘Happy Gilmore 2’ In A Mystery Role

Buy Me A Coffee

The cast of Adam Sandler’s highly anticipated Happy Gilmore 2 is shaping up to be more star-studded than a Hollywood awards show—without the awkward speeches and weirdly long thank-yous!

So, here’s the scoop: back in May, we learned that this sequel to the beloved 1996 golf comedy (because who doesn’t want to see more slapstick shenanigans on the fairway?) was officially happening! Since then, we’ve heard that Travis Kelce, who’s probably got more touchdowns than putts, is set to make a cameo. And as if that wasn’t enough, the one and only Bad Bunny hopped onto the cast list too! I mean, when was the last time you saw a bunny on a golf course?

Now, hold onto your visors because the latest addition to this comedic extravaganza is none other than Kid Cudi! Yes, the rapper and self-proclaimed “best friend of your dreams” will be gracing the film with a mystery role. You know what that means? He might be playing a mystical golf gnome or perhaps the world’s worst caddy—either way, we’re here for it!

Deadline, our trusty source for all things Hollywood, reported that franchise favorites Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald are also back, because who else can we count on to get into a classic Happy Gilmore golf feud?

In a burst of excitement on X (formerly Twitter, for those of you still trying to adjust), Kid Cudi shared, “I’ve been wanting to talk about this for a minute!!! This is so f-ckin HUGE. It’s been a long-time dream of mine to work with Adam; he’s my favorite, and his movies and comedy made up my childhood. Another dream come true. BLESSED!! Get ready, this one’s gonna be EPIC.” I mean, who knew Kid Cudi was such a Sandler fan? Can we get him to perform a golf-themed remix of “Pursuit of Happiness”?

Details about the sequel are as fuzzy as a worn-out golf ball, but Netflix is at the helm, which means we can expect a wild ride! Directed by Kyle Mewachek and scripted by Adam Sandler and Tim Herlihy, production is already rolling.

As we sit here with our popcorn (and maybe a few golf clubs), we’ll keep you updated with more juicy tidbits as they come. Just remember: if you hear someone shouting “You can do it!” in the background, it might just be Adam Sandler encouraging Kid Cudi to ace that golf swing.

And speaking of Kid Cudi, while he’s primarily known for his music career, he’s dabbled in acting, popping up in Don’t Look Up, Trolls Band Together, and this year’s Trap. So yeah, he’s basically the Swiss Army knife of entertainment—music, acting, and now golf? Watch out, world!
