The Jake Gyllenhaal Road House remake is finally a go at Prime Video

Jake Gyllenhaal has some big shoes to fill: his remake of Road House, originally starring Patrick Swayze, is officially moving forward. Gyllenhaal and director Doug Liman’s names have been attached to the project for almost a year, and Prime Video has finally given them the green light.

The 1989 version of the film was about Dalton, a bouncer at a rowdy Missouri bar. The updated version “follows a former UFC fighter (Gyllenhaal) 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,” according to a press release from the streamer.
