Adam Sandler, who played the titular hockey player-turned-pro-golf phenom and will reprise the role in the upcoming Netflix film, tweeted the trailer to his 3.1 million followers late Wednesday morning.
In the short, 33-second clip, most of the shots show Sandler sporting his trademark beard and iconic Boston Bruins jersey from the series. original film from 1996. However, the clip also confirms appearances by Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and rapper Bad Bunny.
Fans of Allen Covert’s performance as Otto, the homeless caddy from the original film, may be disappointed because based on the trailer, it looks like Bad Bunny has taken over the role of Gilmore’s caddy. “You” is often said. I never want to be the starting midfielder of a rising star (see “Fluff” Cowan and Tiger Woods), so it looks like Otto may have fallen victim to this trend.
