Travis Kelce Steals the Show in Happy Gilmore 2, Says Co-star

Famous for his performances on the football field, Travis Kelce has now caught the attention of the public and his co-stars for his role in Happy Gilmore 2. Kelce, known to many as Kansas City Chiefs tight end or Taylor Swift's boyfriend, is now set to make his name in Hollywood. Playing a yet-to-be-disclosed role in the sequel of the Adam Sandler golfing classic, Kelce's performance has been highly praised.

Actor Christopher McDonald - who is no stranger to a villainous role - returns as Shooter McGavin in the Netflix sequel, due to premiere in July 2025. McDonald emphasized how impressive it was to work with NFL's powerhouse on the sequel. Expressing his admiration, McDonald says of the NFL star, "Travis Kelce is not only a charismatic persona but also a surprisingly talented actor. Not to mention, he's extremely good looking".

Fans of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end will be excited to hear McDonald's positive review, especially those who were apprehensive about a sequel backed by such a famous cast. Alongside Kelce's successful appearance on Saturday Night Live, it seems the TE is more than capable when it comes to handling the star power of a Hollywood block.

Alongside his acting skills, McDonald couldn't help but note that Travis Kelce might be a force to be reckoned with on the golf course too. While they didn't get the chance to play together, McDonald has faith in the NFL star's sporting capability, saying, "I have no doubt that Kelce would excel at golf".

Fans are surely excited to see Kelce shine in a different capacity outside of the football stadium. His involvement in the film has sparked curiosity and speculation about his role in the sequel. With such high praise coming from McDonald, fans are eagerly waiting to validate these claims when the movie premieres on Netflix.
