If you're one of the many fans who are thrilled to see a sequel to Happy Gilmore, you might have Shooter McGavin to thank for it. Happy Gilmore 2 was released on Friday, with the sequel only appearing on Netflix as opposed to having a theater release.

Actor Christopher McDonald joins the Dan Patrick Show to discuss returning to the role of Shooter McGavin in "Happy Gilmore 2," playing Jerry Jones and working with The Rock and Adam Sandler.

The wait is finally over: Happy Gilmore 2 is here! The long-awaited sequel to Happy Gilmore is set 29 years after the first film and follows Happy (Adam Sandler) coming out of retirement to pay for his daughter’s ballet school.

The 13-time Grammy award winner shared a sweet post on her Instagram Story where she rated the sequel, that stars Adam Sandler, a “13/10.”

"Happy Gilmore 2" tees off 29 years later with sports stars, big cameos and a mission to honor the cult classic's legacy.

“Happy Gilmore 2,” the newly released Netflix sequel to Adam Sandler’s 1996 golf comedy, is a lot like its star: A little bit flabbier, a little bit shabbier, but still undeniably funny after all these years.

Meanwhile, Sandler and Bowen reacted to Bowen’s shocking “Happy Gilmore 2” death during an interview with Entertainment Weekly published shortly after the movie’s release. The “Modern Family” star suggested that her character needed to die to drive Happy and the events of the film.
