Margaret Qualley Says Husband Jack Antonoff “Lied” To Adam Sandler To Get Her ‘Happy Gilmore 2’ Role


After Adam Sandler reached out to Jack Antonoff, Margaret Qualley admitted her husband lied to get her a role in 'Happy Gilmore 2'.

The actress revealed that her husband Jack Antonoff “lied” to Adam Sandler about her golfing experience level as he advocated for her to join the cast of his upcoming Netflix sequel Happy Gilmore 2 after the original 1996 comedy was her “favorite movie” and its star was her “first crush.” Host Jimmy Fallon then displayed a text exchange between Antonoff and Sandler, in which the latter asked, “Does your wife golf at all,” to which the Bleachers frontman responded, “yea she’s actually good.” In addition to Sandler, Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald are reprising their roles for the sequel, which also features Travis Kelce, Bad Bunny, Benny Safdie, Lee Trevino, Carl Weathers and Bob Barker.
