Spiranac had been campaigning for a role in the sequel since rumors first swirled about its production. Last March, she playfully recreated Julie Bowen’s iconic ‘Happy Place’ scene from the original 1996 film, posting a sultry shot of herself in white lingerie while holding two jugs of beer. In response to a fan-cast list suggesting her involvement, she simply wrote, “I was born ready.”
Her persistence paid off, and she isn’t the only golf personality making an appearance in “Happy Gilmore 2.” The trailer also features major champions Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau, and Rory McIlroy.
Beyond golf, the star-studded cast includes Bad Bunny, Nick Swardson, and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Fans can also expect to see familiar faces from the original film, with Ben Stiller, Christopher McDonald, and Julie Bowen reprising their roles.
Spiranac, who played college golf at the University of Arizona and San Diego State before briefly turning pro, has since built a social media empire centered around the sport. Now, she’s adding Hollywood to her list of achievements.
“Happy Gilmore 2” premieres on Netflix on July 25.
