How to watch Happy Gilmore 2 in New Zealand
Adam Sandler tries for a hole in two with this extremely late sequel.
Well, it’s only taken…almost 30 years? That can’t be right. Anyway, we’re getting a sequel to Adam Sandler’s 1996 golf comedy, Happy Gilmore.
How to watch Happy Gilmore 2 in New Zealand
Happy Gilmore 2 is streaming in New Zealand exclusively on Netflix from July 25, 2025.
What is Happy Gilmore 2 about?
Hockey loser turned golf legend Happy Gilmore (you know who) comes out of retirement in order to pay for his daughter Vienna’s ballet tuition. It looks like the intervening years have been a bit rough on the ol’ Hapster, and he seems to have spawned enough large adult sons to field a starting five. Honestly, does the plot matter too much? Nah, not really.
The cast of Happy Gilmore 2
Returning from the original, we have Adam Sandler as Happy Gilmore; Julie Bowen as his love interest, Virginia Venit; Allen Covert as his former caddy, Otto; Dennis Dugan, who directed the first film, as golf commissioner Doug Thompson; Ben Stiller as evil nurse Hal L; and praise the lord, Christopher McDonald as nefarious golf pro Shooter McGavin. New to the Happyverse is Bad Bunny as Happy’s new caddy, Oscar, plus Kym Whitley, Ethan Cutkosky, Maxwell Jacob Friedman, Scott Mescudi, Margaret Qualley, Benny Safdie, Philip Fine Schneider, Conor Sherry, and Nick Swardson, along with Sandler’s kids, Sadie and Sunny (Sunny is playing aspiring ballerina Vienna). In addition, Blake Clark is once again Farmer Fran, a character he played in The Waterboy.
