Benny Safdie The actor and fi lmmaker on playing the baddie in Happy Gilmore 2, his UFC movie with the Rock, and training for Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey
Definitely. I want to be able to experience a movie that I made with my kids and talk to them as an audience. I think there's something really special about that.
What was your relationship to Happy Gilmore before taking on the role of the sequel's villain? It's one of my favorite movies of all time. I can close my eyes and see it from beginning to end. [Adam] Sandler is just special. It's crazy to me that I'm even in this thing because that movie was such a big part of my childhood.
What did you most want to bring to the character of Frank Manatee? I wanted him to be one of those people you swipe past on Instagram and are like, “Oh, I know that guy.” He speaks in broad platitudes about how to succeed. He’s an energy-drink disrupter. I wanted to make him as real as possible because that’s one of the things I think is really successful about Shooter [McGavin, the first film’s villain]. I was able to bond with [Shooter actor] Chris [McDonald] about how these guys don’t think they’re bad, they just think they’re doing what’s necessary.

Nearly half of those held by ICE faced no criminal charges
WHEN PRESIDENT DONALD Trump launched his reelection campaign, he vowed to deport \"the worst of the worst\" while blaming migrants for bringing \"crime, drugs, misery and death\" to the U.S. And since he took office for his second term, a wave of public and sometimes violent arrests by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers have taken place across the country.

The Risk Report
ARGENTINA'S PRESIDENT JAVIER Milei, a man who's enjoyed extraordinary success with a “move-fast-and-break-things” approach to politics and economic policy, is starting to look a lot more vulnerable. And at an inconvenient moment, with the approach of the country's Oct. 26 midterm elections, which could mark the beginning of the end for Milei and his reform efforts.
