United Kingdom, July 22 -- Adam Sandler is finally bringing back Happy Gilmore after nearly 30 years thanks to constant fan pressure.

The 58-year-old actor and comedian confirmed the long-anticipated sequel during an appearance on Good Morning America on Monday, 21 July, and explained devotees of the golf spoof film had consistently asked about a follow-up to the 1996 comedy.

He said: "When I walk(ed) down the street a lotta times people (would) say, 'You ever gonna do Happy Gilmore 2?'

In Happy Gilmore 2, Adam reprises his role as the foul-mouthed, hockey-loving golfer.
