Leave It To Adam Sandler To Use A Baseball Reference When Talking About Working With His Kids On Happy Gilmore 2

BBG News

In terms of unbeatable sports films and their leading actors, Adam Sandler and golf go together like a well-struck drive and hole-in-one. With the highly anticipated sequel to Happy Gilmore, titled Happy Gilmore 2, about to hit the green, featuring real professional players, you’d expect his thoughts to be all golf, all the time. However, in a surprise twist, Sandler swapped golf clubs for a different stick-and-ball game when discussing working alongside daughters Sadie and Sunny on set.

As the clock ticks closer to Sandler’s 2025 Netflix lineup, the comedian sat down for a chat with E! News. Beyond the eagerly awaited sequel, the discussion veered towards family topics and how content he is when his children excel on set. Interestingly, instead of using a golf analogy as one might expect, Sandler opted for a baseball comparison to express his feelings, chuckling as he explained:

As a movie buff, I can truly relate! There’s an indescribable sense of relief when your child excels at something they love, like a ballplayer getting a hit in a game. It’s that moment when all the hard work and hopes come together, making you exclaim, “Thank goodness!” The joy is overwhelming – it’s not just pride but also relief knowing they’re on the right path.

Instead of letting Sandler keep us guessing even when he’s not on the fairway, it’s still unexpected how he manages to miss out on the fun. It’s like he can avoid any sand traps, thick grass, or even a whiff (plus there’s a lot more ground to cover), but it’s his unpredictable spirit that everyone adores – the same one we see in his comedy, movies, and social media interactions, such as his tribute for the alligator from HG.

During our chat, the former Saturday Night Live star additionally disclosed that he prefers not to offer unasked-for guidance to his children. He clarified that he would only discuss work matters if Sadie or Sunny themselves initiated it, and his primary focus was always on their emotional wellbeing. In his own terms:

“I don’t go around dishing out advice unless they ask for it. My main concern is how they feel overall.

If asked, I certainly could guide them, but more often than not, I find myself simply delighting in their well-being.

He excels at delivering a humorous baseball-themed comment that makes people shout “fore!”, but beyond that, he’s incredibly considerate towards everyone on set. The numerous accolades from the cast of “Happy Gilmore 2” serve as testament to his genuine nature. From rekindling his friendship with Ben Stiller, to gaining praise from newcomer Bad Bunny and forming a bond with the sequel’s lead, Sandler consistently goes above and beyond for everyone involved.

In simpler terms, we’ll need to wait until July 25th to find out if Adam Sandler or his girls have any more unexpected moments for us in “Happy Gilmore 2”. Based on what we hear, it seems like it will be nothing short of a hit, much like a condor soaring through the sky.
