  Info in Movie News | Wednesday Addams is back at Nevermore Academy, and no, she’s not thrilled about it. With new enemies lurking, a stalker sending cryptic threats, and her name now plastered all over campus like some reluctant rockstar, Wednesday’s sophomore year is shaping up to be even stranger than the last. According to The Guardian, Season 2 opens with a flash of chaos. After saving Nevermore from the undead pilgrim Joseph Crackstone in Season 1, Wednesday has earned a cult-like following among her peers. However, the goth queen of gloom is rather unimpressed. However, the goth queen of gloom is not satisfied. “I liked it better when I was feared and hated,” she grumbles, while her peers gather around her, begging for autographs. But there’s no time for admiration, or personal space. Within minutes of the first episode, we’re introduced to a fresh villain, the Kansas City Scalper. He’s a doll-collecting, serial-killing dog groomer in a velour tracksuit played with greasy ...

Adam Sandler and Netflix are Working on Happy Gilmore 2 (Trailer)


Netflix has released a preview of Happy Gilmore 2 featuring the professional golfers slated to make an appearance in the sequel. The upcoming movie continues the narrative of Happy Gilmore (played by Adam Sandler), a rough-around-the-edges hockey player turned golf prodigy renowned for his 400-yard tee shot.

The trailer concludes with a surprise appearance from Ben Stiller, reprising his role as the irritable, mustachioed nursing home orderly Hal from the first film. Stiller is shown praising Full Swing, the Netflix series focusing on the PGA Tour.

According to comicbook, Sandler has teamed up once again with Tim Herlihy to pen the sequel’s script. The director’s chair is filled by Kyle Newacheck (of Murder Mystery fame) while Dennis Dugan, who directed the original Happy Gilmore, is on board as an executive producer. The duo of Jack Giarraputo and Robert Simonds, who produced the original film, are also involved in crafting the sequel with Sandler.

Considering it has now been almost 30 years since the original film hit the big screen in 1996, the vast bulk of the sequel’s target demographic will have little-to-no connection with the one for the predecessor. So this sequel is a curious callback, and it invites anyone who has not seen the first film to get in the loop by streaming it on Netflix’s streaming service — or at least reading a summary we ran online and Info in Movie before. (Synopsis: Happy Gilmore 1996)

Yet to unify and interlace a story that’s sat on the shelf for almost 29 years, Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller and the like will surely do wonders. The sequel is sure to please fans of the original film, as well as new viewers.

There’s even an infuriatingly subjective disclaimer from the editorial team at Info in Movie, the site’s parent site, noting that pretty much all the Adam Sandler films entertain. And when the writer talks about what movie they remember he names Waterboy (in which Sandler plays a pretty strange man obsessed with clean drinking water who is surprisingly a master tackler at the football) as the one that really spoke to them.

As for the sequel, though, sadly, no date has been revealed for Happy Gilmore 2 in the Netflix preview. You should be on the lookout for subsequent messages from Netflix.
