'Happy Gilmore 2': The wildest celebrity cameos, from Travis Kelce to Ken Jennings
Spoiler alert! We're discussing major plot details from the sequel 'Happy Gilmore 2' (streaming now on Netflix). It's all in the hips. Adam Sandler's oafish pro golfer is back on screen for the first time in nearly 30 years, in a new movie that follows the titular Happy Gilmore as he attempts to get back in the game and raise his five kids after the death of wife Virginia (Julie Bowen) in a hurtling golf ball accident. Christopher McDonald, as Happy's nemesis Scooter McGavin, and Ben Stiller, as abusive orderly Hal L, have also returned. Here are some of the most memorable A-list appearances from actors, musicians and athletes throughout the new movie: Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox Bad Bunny The Puerto Rican hitmaker continues to make inroads into acting, after 2022's 'Bullet Train' and Darren Aronofsky's 'Caught Stealing' (in theaters Aug. 29). Here, he plays Oscar, a good-natured busboy-turned-caddie for Happy. Benny Safdie After co-directing Sandler in 2019's nail-biting 'Uncut Gems,' Safdie chews the scenery as main antagonist Frank Manatee, the conniving owner of a sports drink company. Travis Kelce The Kansas City Chiefs tight end (and beau to Taylor Swift) makes an amusing cameo as a strict restaurant manager, whom Oscar dreams of covering in honey and feeding to a bear. Please Don't Destroy The 'Saturday Night Live' viral sketch trio appears throughout the movie: Martin Herlihy, who is also the son of the film's co-writer, Tim Herlihy, plays an amateur golfer who mercilessly taunts Happy when he comes out of retirement. Ben Marshall and John Higgins also make blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameos as irreverent, shirtless spectators during a game. Eric André and Margaret Qualley Like Herlihy, the stand-up comedian and 'The Substance' actress pop in as unimpressed putters who fall victim to a fiery golf cart crash at the hands of the inebriated Happy. Eminem, Post Malone and Kid Cudi The rappers all have small but memorable roles in the new film: Eminem, as a bearded heckler named Donald Jr.; Malone, as outlandish golf commentator DJ Omar Gosh; and Cudi, as an FBI agent who apprehends Stiller's character at the end of the movie. Guy Fieri The 'Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives' favorite drops in late in the movie as a golf tournament official who gets the crowd fired up. Haley Joel Osment The Oscar-nominated child star, best known for 'The Sixth Sense' and 'A.I. Artificial Intelligence,' has a substantial supporting role as Happy's cocky golf rival Billy Jenkins. Steve Buscemi The Hollywood veteran has appeared in many of Sandler's movies, including 'The Wedding Singer' and 'Billy Madison,' and has a minor part here as Happy's eccentric neighbor. Ken Jennings The 'Jeopardy!' host plays himself at the start of the film, as a long-retired Happy is distressed to learn that none of the game show's contestants have any idea who he is. Sean Evans from 'Hot Ones' Frank Manatee goes on a promotional tour in support of his sports drink brand, which includes an interview with celebrity wings master Evans, as well as real-life podcasters Bobby Lee and Alix Earle. Marcello Hernández The 'Saturday Night Live' heartthrob, who's beloved for his viral 'Domingo' sketches, is in and out as Oscar's cousin, Esteban.

Zoe Kravitz, Austin Butler spotted out together at immersive NYC show after sparking romance rumors
Zoe Kravitz and Austin Butler — who've previously sparked romance rumors, and star together in the upcoming film, 'Caught Stealing' — were spotted out in NYC together last weekend. Multiple spies told Page Six that the duo was seen together at immersive theater company Punchdrunk's latest production, 'Viola's Room,' at the Shed in Hudson Yards. We hear that the pair was spotted going into the edgy show together, and also heading out into the night afterwards. They attended the show with their 'Caught Stealing' director Darren Aronofsky, a spy said. In April, the Post reported that rumors about the duo started while they were filming 'Caught Stealing' — and were seen kissing on the set as cameras rolled in October 2024, a month before filming wrapped. 'Viola's Room' is by the creators of the long-running, immersive downtown hit, 'Sleep No More,' which was known to draw lots of celebs — including Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake, Margot Robbie, Bono and more — as audience members wore masks as they took in the roving show. Kravitz, 36, had called off her engagement to Channing Tatum that same month after three years of dating. Butler, 33, and his former flame, model Kaia Gerber, reportedly called it quits toward the end of 2024, also after three years of dating. The stars have yet to address the buzz — though Butler's rep reportedly had previously denied there was any romance between the two. In their upcoming film, Butler stars as a former baseball player who's plunged into a wild fight for survival in the downtown criminal underworld of '90s New York. The film is based on a book by Charlie Huston, who also penned the screenplay. This production, playing through Oct. 19, is more intimate and features a barefoot audience and the recorded voice of Helena Bonham Carter over headphones. This story was featured on a recent episode of , a daily morning show serving up the hottest celebrity headlines, exclusives, and behind-the-scenes buzz. Catch Danny, Evan and Ian chat with celebrity guests every weekday on SiriusXM from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. ET on Stars Ch. 109. SiriusXM service required. See Offer Details.

How Multiple Sources Describe Zoë Kravitz and Austin Butler's Relationship Status Amid Dating Rumors
THE RUNDOWN: Zoë Kravitz and Austin Butler recently sparked dating rumors, but there's not much truth to the speculation. Multiple sources recently told TMZ that the actors are 'just friends' and 'not dating like some are implying.' Last weekend, the pair drew attention when they attended the immersive show Viola's Room at the Shed in New York City's Hudson Yards. But sources say that Darren Aronofsky, the director of their upcoming crime thriller Caught Stealing, arrived and left with them, so it was 'definitely not a date.' In Caught Stealing, which comes out on August 29, Kravitz and Butler play love interests, which might explain why they were photographed kissing on set back in October 2024. Kravitz was previously engaged to Channing Tatum, the star of her directorial debut, Blink Twice. The couple ended their engagement in October 2024. When asked in her ELLE March 2025 cover story if their breakup affects how she feels about their film, Kravitz said, 'Not at all.' She continued, 'I love this thing that we made together, and I care for him very much... I'm so happy that all of it happened. I just feel so grateful that we got to go on that journey together.' And she still has a lot of love for Tatum. 'He has so much more coming, and I think he's in a place as an actor where he's feeling really confident and people are seeing different sides of him,' she said. 'He's got a lot to offer, so I'm excited for people to keep witnessing that.' Butler previously dated Kaia Gerber, but they broke up in January 2025 after three years of dating. Sources told TMZ that 'the relationship just simply ran its course.'

Zoe Kravitz and Austin Butler spark dating buzz after NYC theater outing
Zoe Kravitz and Austin Butler were spotted attending an immersive theater experience together in New York City, reigniting ongoing rumors of a real-life romance. The duo, who co-star in the upcoming film Caught Stealing, were seen at 'Viola's Room' by immersive theater group Punchdrunk at The Shed in Hudson Yards last weekend. Multiple sources confirmed the actors arrived and left the show together, accompanied by their Caught Stealing director Darren Aronofsky. The sighting adds new fuel to reports that Kravitz and Butler grew close during the filming of their movie, where they were seen kissing on set in October 2024. The rumors first emerged in April 2025, shortly after Kravitz ended her engagement to actor Channing Tatum following a three-year relationship. Butler also reportedly ended his long-term relationship with model Kaia Gerber around the same time. 'Viola's Room,' created by the team behind the popular show Sleep No More, is a dark, immersive experience that features a barefoot audience and narration by Helena Bonham Carter through headphones. Known for drawing celebrity attendees, the show's intimate format adds to the intrigue of Kravitz and Butler's joint appearance. While Butler's representative has previously denied any romantic involvement, neither star has addressed the rumors publicly. Their upcoming film, Caught Stealing, is based on the novel by Charlie Huston, who also wrote the screenplay. Butler plays a washed-up baseball player caught in the criminal underworld of 1990s New York. With public appearances like this adding to speculation, fans will be closely watching the duo as the film's release approaches.

‘Black Swan' Dances Back Into Theaters for IMAX Anniversary Screenings
Darren Aronofsky summer is upon us, as his ninth feature 'Caught Stealing' hits theaters August 29. But the week before, his iconic 2010 ballerina-on-the-brink thriller 'Black Swan' will return for a special IMAX 15th anniversary engagement on August 21 and 24. Searchlight Pictures will take the Best Picture nominee — and Best Actress winner for Natalie Portman — to more than 200 IMAX screens on August 21 and 24. Directed by Aronofsky and shot by Matthew Libatique, 'Black Swan' has been specially remastered for the IMAX format, joining recent premium retro screenings like the upcoming golden anniversary of Steven Spielberg's 'Jaws' and the 10th anniversary of Robert Eggers' 'The Witch.' More from IndieWire 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' Review: Fisherman Slasher Hooks a Salty and Satisfying Legacy Sequel 'Smurfs' Review: The Once-Iconic Blue Menaces Are Trapped in Charmless, Generic Animated Feature According to Searchlight, more plans to celebrate 'Black Swan's' 15th birthday will be announced throughout the year, and the company has released a brand new trailer (below) to get things started. Portman swept the movie awards season that year for her physically and mentally grueling portrayal of sexually repressed New York City ballerina Nina Sayers, who spirals into madness and delusion when she takes on the dual role of the Swan Queen for a new interpretation of Tchaikovsky's 'Swan Lake.' Sending her world further into a tailspin are her helicopter mom (a wonderfully creepy Barbara Hershey), lascivious artistic director (Vincent Cassel), and confidante-turned-company-nemesis Lily (Mila Kunis). 'Black Swan' grossed more than $329 million at the global box office off a budget in the low eight figures, with nominations for Picture, Director, Cinematography, and Editing along with Portman's Best Actress win. After opening the Venice Film Festival and premiering in theaters later in the fall, 'Black Swan' was subject to at least two controversies that ultimately had little impact on its legacy: First, that the film was an uncited reinterpretation of Satoshi Kon's 1997 anime film 'Perfect Blue,' about a former Japanese pop star driven to madness by an obsessive fan. Another came from American Ballet Theatre dancer Sarah Lane, who served as Portman's dance double on the film and who allegedly did most of the onscreen dancing attributed to Portman, the actress' face digitally superimposed on Lane's body during the most challenging pointe work. Through numerous statements and interviews, the filmmakers resolved the issue, with the technical demands of Portman's performance ultimately undisputed despite Lane arguably not receiving the credit she felt was due. (Portman had studied ballerina as a child and then spent another year training for the 'Black Swan' production.) Either way, 'Black Swan' is still remembered as a delirious mash-up of high art and sleaze, of 'The Red Shoes,' 'Carrie,' 'Showgirls,' and 'All About Eve,' a backstage melodrama now understood as one of the best films of the 21st century so far. IMAX screenings of 'Black Swan' will take place in major cities throughout the U.S. and Canada, with tickets for select showings already available.
