Eminem is among the plethora of superstar cameos in Adam Sandler's Happy Gilmore 2 movie, which landed on Netflix Friday (July 25). Slim Shady got back into his acting bag with a small role that actually pays homage to the 1996 original, as he plays the son of Donald, who was the character portrayed by the late comedian Joe Flaherty.
During the film's climax, Post Malone makes a cameo as DJ Omar Grant, a flamboyantly dressed sports commentator who weighs in on Happy's final tournament. Post has been racking up film roles over the past few years with recent parts in Road House and This Is Me...Now: A Love Story and Dear Santa.
"Happy Gilmore 2" releases on Netflix July 25, and the Adam Sandler-starring sequel is filled with familiar faces including Travis Kelce and Post Malone.
