Taylor Swift mulling over Happy Gilmore cameo after first ‘laughing’ at offer to join Travis Kelce in sequel
TAYLOR Swift has been offered a shock cameo role in Happy Gilmore 2.
Boyfriend Travis Kelce has already accepted an offer from comic legend Adam Sandler to appear in the next installment of his 1996 cult comedy classic.
SERIOUS APPROACH
The U.S. Sun has been told Travis, whose Kansas City Chiefs have the weekend off, started filming this week in New Jersey.
And our insider says girlfriend Taylor has been approached to star in the movie, which is set to be released next year on Netflix.
The source says the Cruel Summer icon initially thought the idea was a joke and “started laughing” when it was presented to her.
But Sandler’s team are deadly serious and want her to make a star appearance in the return of the slapstick golfer.
Taylor was “really excited” about Travis’ role, especially as the couple love Sandler’s films.
“They have watched the first one many times,” said the source.
DECISION TO MAKE
However, the U.S. Sun has been told that the superstar singer is still deciding whether to accept the proposal.
“It sounded like a joke at the start, so when she got offered the cameo, she didn’t think it was serious at first,” the insider said.
“She still has to answer, but it would be a funny experience, even if the scene lasts 30 seconds or something shorter than that.”
The well-placed source says the couple thinks the prospect of appearing together on the silver screen would be “a funny experience.”
“She is so excited for Travis,” he added. “Taylor knows his acting career is important for him and something he wants to grow into.”
The U.S. Sun revealed earlier this year that Hollywood bosses wanted Travis and brother Jason to appear in an action movie with a $100 million budget.
Sandler dropped into the Kelce’s’ New Heights podcast in August and revealed initial plans to have the current Kansas City Chiefs star play his son.
“The whole thing was to get to hang out with Travis,” Sandler said on podcast. “That’s why we put it together.”
“We were talking about you playing my son while we were writing it,” Sandler added. “Literally like six months ago, we were like, ‘Imagine if Travis was my first baby, how funny that would be? Just a badass.'”
FILMING UNDERWAY
The U.S. Sun has been told that filming occurred at the Pleasantdale Chateau in West Orange, New Jersey, this week.
Security was ramped up outside the luxury wedding venue, with Travis, desperate to break into Hollywood once his stellar NFL career ends, filming some scenes.
“He has been taking acting classes for months,” said the insider.
“He loved the whole experience.”
Notorious bad boy golfing legend John Daly has already admitted he will be in the film. Current players Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy, and Bryson DeChambeau are also rumored to be involved.
