There are only two ways that people describe the movie “Roadhouse”. Either the best movie ever made or the worst. Either way, everyone agrees that there should never be a sequel or a remake. Everyone except Jake Gyllenhaal and whoever he hypnotized into giving it the green light.
We all know that he had to learn how to control minds before he could play Mysterio on that Spiderman movie, right? Right?
Anyway, he’s determined to make Patrick Swayze spin in his grave with a reboot for Amazon Prime Video. Jake, will play the main character, a retired UFC fighter who takes a job as a bouncer at a bar in down in Florida. Of course there will be plenty of that there southern heat, hospitality, and down home brawlin’ y’all!
The rest of the cast has been hired, but none of the names are immediately recognizable. Except for UFC fighter Connor McGregor. It’ll be fun to finally see Connor act like character instead of like a child. (rim shot).
