Pain Don’t Hurt Jake Gyllenhaal in the New Road House (Trailer)
Jake Gyllenhaal takes over from Patrick Swayze as Dalton, sorry “Elwood Dalton”, in the upcoming remake of Road House hitting Prime Video. Directing by Doug Liman, Gyllenhaal’s Dalton is a former UFC middleweight who takes a job working at a roadhouse in the Florida Keys. A rowdy crowd has made the bar unsafe and a greedy real estate mogul, played by Billy Magnussen, wants to run the bar out of business to build a luxury resort. Actual UFC fighter Conor McGregor plays Knox, Dalton’s main adversary, with Daniela Melchior, JD Pardo, Jessica Williams, Darren Barnet, Arturo Castro, and Joaquim de Almeida co-starring. The movie is debuting at the upcoming SXSW festival at the beginning of March but Liman is boycotting the premiere due to Amazon’s decision to release the movie as a streaming-only feature. Road House will debut on Prime Video on March 25th and you can check out the trailer below.
