Steve Buscemi, Margaret Qualley and Bad Bunny are just some of the famous faces to appear alongside Adam Sandler in Netflix sequel "Happy Gilmore 2."

Carl Weathers’ Chubbs Peterson was also slated to return, until the actor died last year. So this film features the character’s son Slim Peterson (Lavell Crawford), who, like his father, sports a prosthetic hand that has an inconvenient propensity for falling off.

In it, a shirtless Kelce gets tied to a post, covered in honey by Bad Bunny's character, and then attacked by a bear.

"Happy Gilmore 2" releases on Netflix July 25, and the Adam Sandler-starring sequel is filled with familiar faces including Travis Kelce and Post Malone.

On the day of the Netflix premiere of Happy Gilmore 2 — in which the Kansas City Chiefs tight end appears alongside Adam Sandler — the pop superstar posted her review of the film on her Instagram Story on Friday (July 25). Sharing the film’s poster, she wrote that the project “had me cackling and cheering the whole movie!”

Ethan Anderton of SlashFilm says Happy Gilmore 2 takes a big swing but completely whiffs it by doing something unforgivable in the opening sequence from which it can never recover. The sequel is, per the critic, “a poor excuse for nostalgic comedy, and you'd have more fun getting a colonoscopy with a rake.” Anderton gives it a 2 out of 10, writing:

The release of “ Happy Gilmore 2 ,” the Netflix sequel to the 1996 comedy hit, is just days away. While Hollywood hot shots might be sweating audience awareness polls or gauging social media chatter, Tim Herlihy — who co-wrote both films with star Adam Sandler — has a more pressing concern: catching up with yard work at his quiet Connecticut home.
