The movie capitalised on Sandler's humorous take on Gilmore, in his debut film, as a simpleton exploiting all his golf ventures, grossing a total of $42 million.
How much Adam made for this movie?
While Adam Sandler's exact takeaway from 'Happy Gilmore 2' is not known, reports suggest that the actor made the film as part of a much larger deal with Netflix. Adam Sandler has a $275 million deal with the streaming behemoth.
It is thought that Sandler first agreed to a $250 million contract with Netflix in 2020 for four projects. Then, for an estimated $275 million, he expanded it to four more films.
Happy Gilmore (1996), essentially propped Sandler to the Hollywood main stage, as he starred with A-list celebrities like Jennifer Aniston. Sandler is also known for his simplicity, while dressing in casuals wherever he goes, including the recent Oscars, in which ex-talk show host ConanO'Brien roasted Sandler for his dressing sense.
His other iconic movies include Hustle, Big Daddy, Click, Grown Ups, That's My Boy, You Don't Mess With The Zohan, etc.
