The company says it will seek talent from West Orange, Livingston, Roseland, Montclair, East Hanover, Verona, South Orange, East Orange and New York City.
Filming is set to take place in Bergen, Essex, Monmouth, Morris and Somerset counties from September to November.
"Happy Gilmore," released in 1996 after 1995's "Billy Madison," was one of Adam Sandler's first big roles. He and Tim Herlihy wrote the script for both the original movie and the upcoming sequel.
The original comedy follows Happy Gilmore (Sandler), a wannabe hockey player who develops a love for golf and competes in a tournament to save his grandmother's house.
