What do we know about the Road House remake?
“The new take follows a former UFC fighter who takes a job as a bouncer at a rough-and-tumble roadhouse in the Florida Keys but soon discovers that not everything is what it seems in this tropical paradise,” the synopsis reads.
The Road House remake is directed by Doug Liman, who is known for making 2002’s The Bourne Identity, 2005’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith, 2014’s Edge of Tomorrow, and, most recently, 2021’s Chaos Walking with Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley.
With a screenplay written by Anthony Bagarozzi and Chuck Mondry, the movie also stars Daniele Melchior, Billy Magnussen, Jessica Williams, Darren Barnet, Conor McGregor, J.D. Pardo, Arturo Castro, Joaquim de Almeida, Lukas Gage, Travis Van Winkle, B. K. Cannon, Beau Knapp, and Kevin Carroll.
Based on the 1989 film of the same name directed by Rowdy Herrington and starring Patrick Swayze, Road House is produced by Joel Silver for Silver Pictures. Executive producers include JJ Hook, Alison Winter, and Aaron Auch.
Gyllenhaal is no stranger to professional fighting. Along with filming scenes at the UFC 285 event for the movie, he also starred alongside Rachel McAdams and Forest Whitaker in 2015’s Southpaw, a boxing drama film directed by Antoine Fuqua.
Road House releases on Amazon Prime Video on March 21, 2024.
