WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Garcia (formerly known as Nikki Bella) and AEWโs Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF) have been spotted together on the set of the upcoming Netflix sequel โHappy Gilmore 2.โ
Garcia took to Instagram to share a behind-the-scenes photo from the production location, where the two wrestling stars were seen filming. This sighting comes after Garcia previously teased a โreally big announcementโ coming in July, which now appears to be tied to her involvement in the highly anticipated comedy film.
Netflix officially confirmed the โHappy Gilmoreโ sequel in 2024, with Adam Sandler returning as the legendary golf anti-hero.
For MJF, this project represents another major Hollywood milestone following his acclaimed role in the A24 wrestling drama โThe Iron Claw.โ The former AEW World Champion continues to expand his brand beyond the ring with appearances in high-profile film productions.
No official release date has been announced for Happy Gilmore 2, but the involvement of Garcia and MJF has already generated buzz from both wrestling and movie fans alike.
