“We had a painful change. Carl Weathers had a massive part,” he said to Collider. “I would talk to Carl and we were excited and then Carl died. We had to rewrite a lot of things, and even what the story was. We made a lot of nice indications of how great chubbs was in the film. That was the biggest change.”

With a wood prosthesis after an alligator had taken his hand, Chubbs in the original film fell into his death from a window because he shocked his head to shock his head to support him as a thank you for improving his short game.

“In the first version that we came up with, he had a son,” said Sandler from the sequel. “He came back to me a lot in my dreams and had a son who was angry that he caused Daddy's death.”

After Weathers' family had announced that he died on February 1, 2024 in his sleep, Sandler remembered him as “a real great man. Great father. Great actor. Great athlete. So much fun, always nearby.
