Travis Kelce is taking his talents from the football field to the golf course for Happy Gilmore 2. Find out what Adam Sandler said about his plans for Kelce in the sequel.

Travis Kelce Will Appear In Happy Gilmore 2

While appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Sandler revealed that Happy Gilmore 2 will begin shooting in a few weeks. The sequel will shoot in New Jersey and include cameos from professional golfers.

When Fallon mentioned Kelce, Sandler revealed his plans for the Chiefs tight end in the sequel to the 1996 golf comedy.

“We have a nice something for Travis,” Sandler said about Kelce’s involvement in the sequel. “He’s gonna come by. He’s a very nice guy. You guys would love him in real life. What a big, handsome guy. Funny and cool as hell. He’s a stud and he’s so funny.”

In May, Kelce expressed his love for Happy Gilmore, saying he would do anything to be in the sequel.

“I’ll be a fucking extra… anything to get around Happy Gilmore, an Adam Sandler film or set — count me in,” Kelce said. “I’ll do anything in the movie. I’ll be part of it any way I possibly can.”

Travis Kelce Planning Pivot To Hollywood

The rest of Kelce’s 2024 will revolve around football. However, the Chiefs star is already making plans for Hollywood next offseason.

Per Jeff Sneider, Kelce is attached to star in Loose Cannons, an action comedy at Lionsgate.

Plot details are under wraps. The script comes from Timothy Dowling, who co-wrote 2015’s Pixels. John Wick’s Chad Stahleski will produce alongside Jason Spitz and Alex Young.

Kelce will soon appear in FX’s Grostesquerie, a Ryan Murphy horror series that premieres on September 25, 2024.

Kelce and the Chiefs play the Baltimore Ravens to kick off the 2024-2025 NFL season on Thursday, September 5, 2024.
