Carl Weathers’ Chubbs Peterson was also slated to return, until the actor died last year. So this film features the character’s son Slim Peterson (Lavell Crawford), who, like his father, sports a prosthetic hand that has an inconvenient propensity for falling off.

That kind of appreciation goes both ways, too. In the lead-up to this movie’s release, some of Kelce’s Happy Gilmore co-stars have shared lovely stories about working with him. For example, Christopher McDonald, who plays Shooter McGavin, noted that the football player is “really funny,” “way too handsome,” and a “surprisingly good” actor.
