Julie Bowen just released a big spoiler for Happy Gilmore 2

Julie Bowen talks Happy Gilmore 2.

During the Today with Hoda and Jenna on Thursday, 12 September, the Modern Family The 54-year-old alumnus spoke about his return for the sequel nearly 30 years after the original 1996 Adam Sandler comedy.

Co-host Jenna Bush Hager joked, “They can probably tell us zero” about the new movie, which is currently filming in New Jersey, to which Bowen confirmed, “Absolutely zero.”

Bowen played Virginia Venit in the original, the lover of Sandler's eponymous hockey star turned golfer. “Are you all [still] together?” asked Hager, 42. Bowen said, “Yeah, we're very much together.” The co-host then joked, “Oh, you just gave us a spoiler warning!”

“Is that bad? No. That… you can say that… I think I can say that!” Bowen added.

Happy Gilmore was “the first film I ever did,” said Bowen, who recalled, “I was really uncomfortable with my hair in it. Really uncomfortable with it. I remember crying in my trailer and saying, 'Nobody's going to see it, it's OK.' I thought nobody's going to see it? It's the only movie my dad watched over and over again!”

Hager called the original film “iconic,” adding, “One of the reasons for that is the late Bob Barker. I know that was one of your favorite roles.”

“That was one of my favorite scenes. In that scene he has to say: 'The price is incorrect, [bitch]' and he said he didn't want to say that because he's such a gentleman. But they filmed for hours on this beautiful golf course in Vancouver. And at the end of the day he's so excited. He says, 'The price is wrong, [bitch]!' It was great.”

In addition to Sandler (58) and Bowen, co-star Christopher McDonald is also returning. The cast of the Netflix sequel also includes Benito Martínez Ocasio (aka Bad Bunny), and NFL star Travis Kelce is also set to make an appearance.

On September 9, Sandler teased that production on the comedy was already underway, posting a photo of the iconic hockey jersey on Instagram. “It's not over. The way I see it… we've only just begun,” he wrote in the caption.
