The actor added that people kept asking him for a sequel over the years.

"People have been asking me for a long time, 'Do Happy Gilmore 2,' and I was always like, 'Nah, I'll only let you down.' But then me and my buddy, Tim Herlihy, we came up with this idea. We're really excited about it. We wrote our a**es off. We're continuing to try to make it a movie that you guys will like."

In an interview with Moviefone, the film's director, Kyle Newacheck, spoke about working with Sandler. He said:

"I'm a huge fan of his work, and thankfully Adam Sandler is a hard worker. He will put in the work. I think I'm the same way. I work incredibly hard. I really put my whole self into a project, and I think we both have a similar style, where we put our whole selves into a project in the hopes that it will feel effortless. That's hard to do, but we both try and do that."
