Happy Gilmore 2 casting opens in New Jersey for Adam Sandler film

New Jerseyans have another chance to play a small role on the big screen as the makers of “Happy Gilmore 2,” starring Adam Sandler, are looking for new extras to film a scene for the film this week.

Residents are being asked to submit an application to portray partygoers in a scene being filmed Thursday, talent agency Grant Wilfley Casting Inc. (GWCI) announced on social media. Screen Actors Guild members receive $216 for every eight hours of work, while non-union workers receive $176 for 10 hours.

The GWCI Facebook post listed Hoboken as a filming location, but did not specify whether filming would take place there. The agency did not respond to a request for additional information Wednesday afternoon.

Due to the nature of the scene, GWCI only accepts submissions from people who have never played a role in the film before.

Interested applicants should email [email protected] with the subject line “IG Party Guest 11/21.” The email must contain the following information:
