Adam insisted. “I got you. No way.”
Sandler also talked about giving the cast the space to improv and said Travis Kelce and Bad Bunny both got involved.
He shared, “Comedians tend to riff and but Travis he was loose, he was coming up with great stuff and the golfers were very carefree with and dropping in some gems that we stole. Benito, you can’t forget about him.”

“It was my first movie. It was, like, imprinted very deeply on me,” Julie said.
Adam recalled, “I remember your audition tape, I remember what you looked like!” adding, “She was fantastic. We were like, ‘Well who is that? That girl’s fantastic. She’s cool.’ And we were like, ‘Is she a star already? Like, who is that?’… We said she will do this movie and then do better things after this, and you did.”
Bowen said of being cast in the original, “I was so lucky, and I thought, ‘Great, this is, my whole career is gonna be nothing but this.’ No. I got lucky off the bat, and then to come full-circle 30 years later, it’s great.'”
Adam raved, “Everybody loves her.”
“I’m on time,” Julie quipped.
“She’s on time and she’s cool and she’s funny as hell and nails it,” Adam gushed.
