Official Look At AEW’s MJF In Happy Gilmore 2 Movie

The trailer for the Adam Sandler movie Happy Gilmore 2 has landed, giving us our first official look at AEW’s MJF.

In October 2024, we got our first look at the former AEW World Champion in the upcoming Netflix movie.

It had also been previously noted that MJF would have “a significant role” in the sequel to the 1996 sports comedy.

The official trailer for Happy Gilmore 2 dropped on December 24 and can be seen below this news story.

MJF can be seen very briefly in the trailer (screenshot below) with little known about the character he is playing.

The movie is set for a July 2025 release date and also features Bad Bunny among its cast and Travis Kelce in a cameo role.

The official Netflix press page for the upcoming movie notes:

“It’s been almost 30 years since we last saw Happy Gilmore, the long-driving hero who won the Tour Championship in 1996. Now, we finally get to catch up with him in a new sequel. That’s right, Adam Sandler is returning to the golf green as Happy Gilmore, and he’s bringing along a few new and familiar faces. Joining the film alongside Sandler are original Happy Gilmore stars Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald and brand-new co-star Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio (aka Bad Bunny).”

Happy Gilmore 2 is being written Tim Herlihy who co-wrote the original, with Dennis Dugan swapping roles from director to executive producer of the sequel.

Murder Mystery director Kyle Newacheck will helm Happy Gilmore 2 with Happy Gilmore producers Jack Giarraputo and Robert Simonds returning as producers.
