AceShowbiz - Margaret Qualley is overjoyed to have landed a role in the upcoming sequel to her favorite movie, "Happy Gilmore". However, her husband, Jack Antonoff, had to fib a little to help her get the part.
Qualley revealed on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" that she had emailed her agents as soon as she heard about "Happy Gilmore 2", saying she would do anything for a role in it, "no matter how small."
Host Jimmy Fallon then showed a text message conversation between Antonoff and Sandler, in which Sandler asked, "Does your wife golf at all?" To which Antonoff promptly replied, "Yea, she's actually good." Qualley said, "What a good husband. And I can't golf."
Despite Antonoff's deception, Qualley did take some golf lessons in preparation for the role. However, she admitted, "I'm still bad."
Still, Qualley is ecstatic about being a part of "Happy Gilmore 2", even though it's a "tiny" background role. "I can die happy now," she said.
The Netflix sequel is currently in production in New Jersey and will feature Adam Sandler reprising his titular role, along with Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald. Travis Kelce and Bad Bunny are also set to make appearances. Plot details remain undisclosed.
