Will we dine on Popeyes once more? Here’s what you need to know about a rumored Little Nicky 2, aka Hell Takes a Vacation, including if the Adam Sandler sequel is really happening.
Adam Sandler, the virtuoso of comedic mayhem, crafted a legacy leadingmovies such as Billy Madison and Happy Gilmorewhere his unparalleled knack for slapstick humor endeared him to audiences worldwide.
The Sandman continued his dramatic efforts with his latestNetflixmovie,Spaceman– but this week, talk has turned to his divisive 2000 comedy, Little Nicky. So, is a sequel happening?
Is Little Nicky 2 real?
Once again, the culprit behind the rumor appears to beYODA BBY ABY, the Facebook page that regularly shares fake movie news and posters – and the Adam Sandler sequel is its latest viral triumph, amassing more than 45,000 likes at the time of writing.
Although YODA BBY ABY openly promotes the fact that it’s a “satire and fake news site,” movie lovers continue to get duped by their sham film posts.
“They better have the bra on that dude’s head,” wrote one in response, referencing Kevin Nealon’s infamous “titheaded” Gatekeeper. Another said, “Kevin Nealon definitely needs to be in this.”
“Life is good, thank you Sandman,” added a third, while a fourth said, “Oh, can’t wait to see this.” And a fifth chimed in, “I’m sooo excited. My favorite of all time.”
Alas, although Little Nicky has garnered a cult following over the years, the sequel rumors are just that – rumors. No plans are in place to create a follow-up to the original, which saw Sandler star as the mild-natured son of the devil who must stop his evil brothers from creating a new hell on earth.
