Christopher McDonald swung for the fences on a Cleveland radio station, announcing that there may be another Happy Gilmore on the way. The man behind the notorious Shooter McGavin told 92.3 The Fan that Adam Sandler shared a first draft for a potential Happy Gilmore sequel with him just two weeks ago. He then called on fans to “demand it,” and bring the eponymous golfer back to the green. Should it come to fruition, the project would likely be made for Netflix, where Sandler and Happy Madison have a massive $250 million deal responsible for such films as You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah and Spaceman.
In other nostalgia-farming news, audiences finally got their first glimpse into the world of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice that wasn’t an A.I.-generated poster shared by your aunt on Facebook. The 76-second teaser is sparse when it comes to dialogue, but it made one thing clear: “The Juice is loose.” The trailer briefly highlights Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder and Catherine O’Hara as they reprise their respective roles from the 1988 classic, as well as brings Jenna Ortega into the fray. The snippet also showcases some of the “literally handmade” practical effects Keaton has gushed about, which was a dealbreaker for him and Tim Burton returning to the world of the wise-cracking ghoul. A longer trailer is sure to haunt screens all summer, as the sequel is due out this September.
