Maxwell Jacob Friedman, known as MJF, is set to join the cast of Netflix’s Happy Gilmore 2, which will feature Adam Sandler. Deadline shared this news today.
According to PWInsider.com, in the movie, MJF will portray Gordie, one of Sandler’s sons. The report mentions that Gilmore’s sons are described as “strong kids, tough crazy bastards with New England accents who have inherited their father’s love of hockey. They all live independently and hold blue-collar jobs.”
In addition to Sandler, Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald will return to their roles as Virginia Venit and Shooter McGavin, and Bad Bunny will join the cast.
Filming is currently in progress, with Kyle Newacheck directing from a script written by Sandler and Tim Herlihy. MJF took a break from AEW after the AEW All Out event, following an attack by Daniel Garcia.
