Actress Julie Bowen sat down for an interview on the Inside Of You podcast where she opened up about starring in Happy Gilmore 2.
She admitted to being shocked at being asked to be a part of the movie by Netflix, “I didn’t think they’d bring me back at all. “I mean, who am I supposed to be? He’s got to have a younger woman in this one, ‘Happy Gilmore 2.'”
Bowen also felt she wouldn't be cast in the original movie either, “I read and they were relieved. They were visibly relieved. I go, ‘What’s going on?’ They’re like, ‘Yeah, some of these girls are just so aggressively sexy.’ And I was like, ‘That’s a bad thing?'”
New stars joining the film include Margaret Qualley, Eric André, Sunny Sandler, Benny Safdie, Bad Bunny, Eminem and Travis Kelce.
The actress did admit that she has less screen time in this film as compared to the first, but her co-star Adam Sandler has insisted that she shouldn’t downplay her role, “Adam’s like, ‘Stop saying that. You’re the heart of the movie.'”
