Travis Kelce plays a small, shirtless role in this sequel to Adam Sandler's Happy Gilmore, alongside global music phenomenon Bad Bunny. During a recent interview with Extra, the singer said of his scene with Kelce:

"It was a very funny and crazy scene."

When asked if smearing honey on the tight end made Taylor Swift jealous, Bad Bunny said:

"I was just putting him ready for her. She can be the bear."

Adam Sandler, who wrote and stars in the movie, also spoke to E! News about Travis Kelce's acting skills:

"Travis just came from a football game,” he told the outlet earlier this month. “I think he had a game on Sunday, and he was on our set on Monday and showed up with bruises on his back and he just was pulling up, gave us a couple days of greatness and then back to life.”

As for Travis Kelce, his on-screen credits seem to be growing. When he's not on the field, he's hosting his podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce, called “New Heights." In the past, he hosted the Amazon Prime game show “Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity” and once starred in his very own 2016 reality show “Catching Kelce.”

However, he sometimes takes inspiration from movies himself when it comes to sprucing things up for his girlfriend, he revealed during a recent episode of the $100 million podcast. Travis Kelce revealed to the world that he sometimes consults the classic 1990 film starring Julia Roberts, Pretty Woman:

“I’m wearing nothing but a tie when Taylor comes home,” he told Jason. "We need to have a CEO billionaire woman be so high class she doesn't know where she's going, she doesn't know how to drive a car," he added, prompting Jason to point out, "Travis, you’re living Pretty Man right now!"

The three-time Super Bowl champion made his way back to the training camp this Tuesday as the 13th NFL season draws closer. The Kansas City Chiefs are now looking to make a comeback following their Super Bowl LIX loss in February.
