What was the 'Happy Gilmore 2' experience like for Nelly Korda, Charley Hull?
Charley Hull was born about a month after the original "Happy Gilmore" movie came out in 1996. Nelly Korda, who turned 27 on Monday, is two years younger than Hull. Both joined a host of golf stars – including fellow No. 1 Scottie Scheffler – in the comedy hit's sequel, which brings back Adam Sandler in the lead role. "Happy Gilmore 2" was released on Netflix July 25 and, according to Variety, 46.7 million viewers streamed the movie in just three days — making it the biggest U.S. opening weekend in Netflix history. Korda said she planned to watch the movie sometime this week while she's competing at the AIG Women's British Open in Wales. "It was so cool getting to meet Adam Sandler, getting to be part of that process, and actually seeing how difficult acting is from that point of view," said Korda.

Emily Blunt joins Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway for 'The Devil Wears Prada 2'; takes over NYC with red head and elegant outfit
It's 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' season – and social media is all about the new looks, the stunning cast on the streets of NYC, and the designer looks which they have signed up for. While Meryl Streep , Anne Hathaway , and Stanley Tucci had their moments a couple of moons ago, it's finally time for the red-headed Emily Blunt . Here's a closer look at Emily Blunt, out and about on the streets of NYC. About Emily Blunt's outfit The 42-year-old actress, reprising her role as Emily Charlton, gave a glimpse of her not-so-blunt look. Wearing the crisp and elegant outfit, Emily wore a striped suit with a stitched bustier, along with a luxurious pair of shades and finely painted nails, according to Deadline. What stole the show was the fine leather bag and the red bob hair, making her the perfect fit in the fashion industry. Meryl Streep (Miranda Priestly) and Anne Hathaway (Andrea 'Andy' Sachs) were spotted multiple times in NYC, whether it was a chase or at a restaurant. What is the sequel about? While the cast has been openly gushed over, the details about the plot have been kept under wraps. At the end of the original film, Sachs leaves the fashion industry in the most dramatic way and joins a New York City newspaper. In the sequel, Priestley would reportedly navigate the decline of the traditional print media and would face Charlton, who was once her assistant but now mints dollars with advertising that the former desperately needs, according to Variety. About 'The Devil Wears Prada 2' Joining the original cast, the new members include Kenneth Branagh , who would be playing Miranda Priestly's husband, as well as Lucy Liu, Simone Ashley , Justin Theroux , B.J. Novak and Pauline Chalamet in unknown roles. The most anticipated film, 'The Devil Wears Prada 2,' will be released in the theatres on May 01, 2025.
