"Murder Mystery" director Kyle Newacheck told UPI the new comedy "Happy Gilmore 2" was made for lifelong Adam Sandler fans like himself. It premieres Friday.

Tim Herlihy has had a lasting and prolific creative partnership with Adam Sandler, the star of Netflix's 'Happy Gilmore 2,' which he co-wrote with the actor.

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 the inconvenient propensity for falling off.
