Adam Sandler recently premiered Happy Gilmore 2, and his daughters Sadie and Sunny featured in it. Sadie, 19, and Sunny, 16, had previously played roles in some of their father’s movies, including Grownups, Murder Mystery, and Blended.

In Happy Gilmore 2, Sunny Sandler plays the role of Vennita, Sandler’s character’s daughter. She is the reason for Happy’s decision to get back into the game of golf, as he hopes to earn enough to send her to a ballet school in Europe.

Sadie, on the other hand, appears as Charlotte, an alcoholic in Happy’s support group who becomes his friend. The two find common ground and are there for each other. In the film’s final moments, Happy says to Charlotte:

"You’re a very cool kid.”

To which she responds:

"You’re very cool too. You remind me of my dad.”

Speaking with E! News on July 16, 2025, Adam Sandler expressed that he felt relieved watching his daughters perform their acting roles well:

“Oh, my god, you're just relieved. Once they do it well, nothing feels better as a parent,”

He added:

“It must be like when you're the parents of a baseball player and you're at the game and they get a hit. You just go, ‘Thank God.’ It’s just so much relief.”
