Bad Bunny to join the cast with Adam Sandler in 'Happy Gilmore 2'

-


Netflix announced on Tuesday that comedy veteran Adam Sandler and Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny are teaming up. The musician will appear with Sandler in the much awaited sequel "Happy Gilmore 2," albeit it is unclear what part he will play. Original cast members Julie Bowen, who is currently a "Modern Family" alum, and Christopher McDonald, who costarred alongside Sandler in the 1996 original, are also confirmed for the new movie. In August, Sandler also declared that the upcoming movie would feature a brief appearance by Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.


While McDonald portrayed Shooter McGavin, the professional golfer who was the hockey player-turned-golf pro's adversary in the original, Bowen portrayed Virginia Venit, Happy's love interest in the movie.


In the action comedy "Bullet Train" directed by David Leitch in 2022, Bad Bunny made an appearance alongside Brad Pitt. The musician teased the announcement on his Instagram account on Tuesday by posting a photo of himself on a jumbotron with the wrong title card identifying him as Adam Sandler.


The information was released one day after Sandler and the streaming service disclosed that the film's production has begun. It was revealed in May that Sandler will return to the part he played in the comedy "Happy Gilmore" from 1996. The movie centres on a hockey player who transforms into a popular golfer. In 2025, "Happy Gilmore 2" will make its Netflix debut.

Ozempic Weight-loss drugs to Slow Down Ageing Process, scientists suggest

-

Drugs for weight loss have the potential to completely transform healthcare by delaying the aging process and extending life expectancy and quality of life. Leading scientists have made this stark statement in response to research that were presented at the European Society of Cardiology Conference in London last week. Studies have already shown that semaglutide , which is marketed under the names Ozempic and Wegovy , lowers the risk of death in patients with cardiovascular disease who are overweight or obese. However, more recent research has shown that Ozempic has effects that go beyond what was once thought to be possible for the medication. Researchers found that those who took the medication died at a decreased rate from all causes, not just cardiovascular ones. "Semaglutide has far-reaching benefits beyond what we initially imagined," Yale School of Medicine Professor Harlan Krumholz stated. It goes beyond just preventing heart attacks. They are advocates for ...

A team of paleontologists found matching dinosaur footprints on what are now two different continents, separated by thousands of miles of ocean.  The footprints, dating back to the Early Cretaceous period, were found in Brazil and in Cameroon , researchers wrote in a study published Monday by the New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science. The discovery shows where land-dwelling dinosaurs were able to cross freely between South America and Africa before the two continents split apart millions of years ago . The study showed that the more than 260 footprints that were examined were imprinted in mud and silt along historic rivers and lakes; the footprints in South America and Africa were separated by more than 3,700 kilometers. Paleontologists discovered that they shared similarities in terms of age, shape, and plate tectonic and geological settings. According to Louis Jacobs , a paleontologist at Southern Methodist Universit y, dinosaurs left their mark 120 million year...
