Jake Gyllenhaal Stars In “Road House” Remake Alongside Conor McGregor
Hollywood A-lister Jake Gyllenhaal is set to captivate audiences in the upcoming “Road House” remake, where he shares the screen with UFC legend Conor McGregor.
The film, which is a remake of the original 1989 film that starred Patrick Swayze, follows an ex-UFC middleweight fighter who ends up working at a rowdy bar in the Florida Keys, played by “Nightcrawler” actor Jake Gyllenhaal.
The highly anticipated film, scheduled to be available for streaming on Prime Video on March 21, promises an electrifying blend of Hollywood glamour and hard-hitting action.
However, the film’s release has not been without controversy, as director Doug Liman has publicly voiced his discontent over the decision to debut the movie on a streaming platform, emphasising the significance of the theatrical experience for such a compelling production.
In response to Amazon Prime’s choice for an exclusive streaming release of the upcoming “Road House” remake, which is “so clearly made for the big screen,” director Doug Liman has announced his decision to skip the film’s premiere as a form of protest.
The “Road House” remake is poised to deliver a riveting cinematic experience, blending Gyllenhaal’s remarkable performance with McGregor’s formidable presence, promising audiences an unforgettable on-screen spectacle.
The film will premiere in Texas at the SXSW film festival in March.
