It comes after Margaret was promoting her critically-acclaimed body-horror film The Substance on The Tonight Show when she dropped some exciting casting news.
The actress was a guest last month of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she was asked about a rumor that she stars in the upcoming comedy sequel Happy Gilmore 2.
‘The rumors are true,’ Margaret said with glee, admitting, ‘It was the best thing that ever happened to me.’
She did admit, ‘It’s a tiny part. I’m essentially deep background, but I can die happy now.’
As it turns out, her husband, music producer Jack Antonoff, came through with an assist… by lying to Adam Sandler via text.
‘I saw that there was an announcement, like, there’s going to be a a Happy Gilmore 2. And I emailed my agents right away. And I said, “Anything it takes. No part is too small. Please! I got to be a part of this. I beg of you, please, whatever it takes,’ she admitted.
Then at some point, Adam texted Jack, asking, ‘Does your wife golf at all?’ He replied, ‘Yeah, she’s actually good!’
Adam replied, ‘No way,’ as Jack asked, ‘We talking ‘Gilmore’ or charity golf tournament?’
Adam replied, ‘Gilmore. might bug her for a couple days, funny thing. She’d be awesome.’

Margaret admitted, ‘What a good husband. And I can’t golf. He lied for the sake of the family. Yeah.’
When asked about the experience working with the Grown Ups star, Margaret said, ‘He’s the best. It was the best thing that’s ever happened to me.’
As for the sport of golf, she admitted, ‘Never golfed a day in my life. I’m terrible, actually.’
She added that she went into a barn to hit some golf balls for the first time and she did take some lessons, ‘But mostly I’m still bad.’
When asked about the experience working with Adam, she said, ‘He’s the best. It was the best thing that’s ever happened to me.’
She added that Adam was her, ‘first crush’ and the original 1996 comedy classic Happy Gilmore is her, ‘favorite movie,’ adding Sandler is, ‘the greatest of all time.’
The original film followed Adam’s title character, a hapless hockey player who discovers a hidden talent for driving a golf ball over 400 yards.
He finds himself joining the PGA Tour to try and win enough money to buy his grandma’s house back.
The comedy – which also starred Julie Bowen as the PGA Tour’s head of publicity Virginia Venit, Christopher McDonald as Happy’s rival Shooter McGavin and Carl Weathers as Happy’s teacher Chubbs Peterson – earned $41 million from a $12 million budget.
