Joining Sandler in the highly anticipated sequel is Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, making his acting debut. Kelce opens the teaser with the first lines, dressed as a golf club member and welcoming Happy back. “It’s good to have you back, Mr. Gilmore,” he said.
The movie also stars Grammy-winning artist Bad Bunny, "The Substance" actor Margaret Qualley, comedian Nick Swardson, rapper Scott Mescudi (Kid Cudi), and filmmaker Benny Safdie, who co-directed Sandler in Uncut Gems.
