Netflix has released the first trailer for Adam Sandler’s highly anticipated Happy Gilmore sequel.
The original sports comedy was directed by Dennis Dugan and has gone on to earn cult film status since being released in 1996.
It tells the story of Sandler's titular unsuccessful ice hockey player who discovers that he has a talent for golf and competes in a tournament to raise money and save his grandmother's house.
A lot of things appear to have changed since we last caught up with Happy.
