Cudi took to both Instagram and Twitter to share the news that he has joined the star-studded cast of the Netflix film Happy Gilmore 2. 

In addition to expressing excitement for his upcoming role, the Cleveland native explained how landing the opportunity was somewhat of a long time coming for him. While the details of Cudi’s character remain under wraps, the screenshot he shared of the Deadline exclusive announcing the news of his role provided some insight into the structure of the cast currently on board to appear in the film. Both Julie Bowen and Christopher McDonald will reprise their roles as the characters Virginia Venit and Shooter McGavin for the sequel. Additionally, Latin music sensation Bad Bunny is also a part of the cast and Sandler also reportedly “teased” the likelihood of a cameo from NFL Super Bowl champion Travis Kelce in the film.
