Actor Jake Gyllenhaal showcases his physical prowess in a sneak peek from the upcoming movie 'Road House,' portraying an intense scene within an underground fighting arena. The preview captures his character engaging in a gritty showdown against a group of adversaries in a dimly-lit parking lot. Displaying agile mixed martial arts skills, he delivers a striking blow to an opponent's face and quips, "Oo, I just slapped you, are you alright?" before swiftly overpowering the rest of the group, as reported by Entertainment Weekly.
'Read Road House' is a modern retelling of the 1989 action film of the same title, initially starring Patrick Swayze. The narrative revolves around a security guard defending a roadside bar in Missouri from the malicious intents of a local businessman. While specifics about the remake remain under wraps, Gyllenhaal embodies the character of an ex-UFC fighter, and the storyline is relocated to Florida this time around.
Directed by Doug Liman, the film features a stellar cast including Daniela Melchior, Billy Magnussen, and the renowned UFC star Conor McGregor.
Entertainment Weekly's report indicates that this exclusive glimpse is part of Prime Video's teaser reel, offering a tantalizing preview of their forthcoming lineup.
The sizzle reel also offered sneak peeks into other exciting projects. 'Ricky Stanicky,' a new fantasy-comedy from Peter Farrelly, stars Zac Efron and John Cena. Additionally, viewers got glimpses of Jennifer Lopez's musical venture 'This Is Me...Now: The Film,' the rom-com 'Upgraded' featuring Camila Mendes, Anne Hathaway-starrer 'The Idea of You,' and various other intriguing film endeavors set to captivate audiences soon.
