\n\tOn Tuesday night\u2019s (August 20) Tonight Show<\/em>, Adam Sandler confirmed that Kelce will appear in the upcoming Happy Gilmore 2<\/em> sequel. \u201cTravis has\u2026 he mentioned it, so we have a nice something for Travis,\u201d\u00a0Sandler said of the gig that Kelce publicly pined over earlier this year. \u201cHe\u2019s gonna come by. He\u2019s a very nice guy. You guys would love him in real life. What a big, handsome guy. Funny and cool as hell. He\u2019s a stud and he\u2019s so funny.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThough Sandler didn\u2019t reveal any details about Kelce\u2019s role in the anticipated follow-up to the 1996 golf comedy, the Kelce reveal is a bit of wish fulfillment for the Super Bowl champ. He seemed to manifest the cameo<\/a> in May on his New Heights<\/em> podcast with brother retired NFL great Jason Kelce, when Travis said he was a \u201chuge fan of the Sandman\u201d and would do \u201canything\u201d to get a role in the film. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI didn\u2019t even know there was a job opening on Happy Gilmore 2<\/em>. I\u2019ll be a f\u2013king extra\u2026 anything to get around\u00a0Happy Gilmore<\/em>, an Adam Sandler film or set \u2014 count me in,\u201d Travis said at the time. Jason quickly poured cold water on the idea, though, noting that there was \u201creally no evidence to support\u201d the conspiracy theory that his brother might make it into the film after a Reddit user noted that Kelce was wearing a Happy Gilmore<\/em> baseball hat on the podcast shortly after the sequel was announced. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201c[No evidence] other than the movie\u2019s getting made and I\u2019m looking for movie deals,\u201d Travis teased at the time. \u201cWho knows? Theories can come true. Theories can be true and people just don\u2019t know about it. I might even be in the talking and nobody knows about it, but I could also not be in the talking. I\u2019ll do anything in the movie. I\u2019ll be part of it any way I possibly can.\u201d Travis speculated that he could be the \u201cjackass\u201d crowd heckler from the original, or, perhaps given hs upcoming game show gig, he could take over the Bob Barker role.<\/p>\n

\n\tKelce has been beefing up his TV and film resum\u00e9 this year, with upcoming appearances in Ryan Murphy\u2019s upcoming FX horror series, Grotesquerie<\/a><\/em>, as well as a gig hosting the Amazon Prime game show reboot Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?<\/em> and a just-announced potential first lead role in the action-comedy Loose Cannons<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n\tSandler told Tonight Show<\/em> host Jimmy Fallon that the movie will start shooting in New Jersey in \u201ca couple of weeks.\u201d Kelce, of course, will likely be back on the field for the final Chiefs pre-season game against the Chicago Bears on Thursday night (August 22) before kicking off the regular season on Sept. 5 against the Baltimore Ravens.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen he does take the field, it will be with his new longer hairstyle, which Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes recently said is thanks to girlfriend Taylor Swift\u2019s influence<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve been trying to get him to grow his hair out and all of a sudden Taylor gets him to do it,\u201d Mahomes said during a recent interview on SiriusXM NFL Radio.<\/p>\n
