Audiences were given small glimpses of the new Road House remake when Jake Gyllenhaal was shown to be filming scenes for his character’s MMA career at UFC 285. The public would get to see the fighting shape Gyllenhaal is now in, which amazingly puts his physique in Southpaw to shame. Additionally, the crew would film a weigh-in where Gyllenhaal’s Elwood Dalton plays up his intensity for the attending crowd. The movie is slated to premiere on Prime Video next year, although, a trailer has yet to be released.
Those anxious to see more from it can check out the new 2024 preview trailer from Amazon, courtesy of Entertainment Weekly, which showcases a number of movie and TV projects set to be released on Prime Video. According to EW, “We first see a brief glimpse of Gyllenhaal looking absurdly muscular in the middle of what appears to be an underground fighting ring. Later, we witness Gyllenhaal’s character take on a large group of adversaries in a dimly-lit parking lot. He hits an antagonist in the face and sarcastically asks, ‘Oo, I just slapped you, are you alright?’ before proceeding to obliterate the rest of the group with his agile mixed martial arts skills.”
The remake comes from The Bourne Identity and Edge of Tomorrow‘s Doug Liman. It is being produced by Joel Silver, who also produced the original 1989 film. The cast also includes Daniela Melchior, who was seen in Fast X, and Billy Magnussen, who is no stranger to action, having recently been featured in No Time to Die. Road House is set to be released by Amazon Studios.
Prime Video’s preview also reveals additional footage from Mr. and Mrs. Smith with Donald Glover and Maya Erskine, glimpses of Reacher, The Boys, Fallout, as well as upcoming films, Ricky Stanicky, a new fantasy-comedy from Peter Farrelly starring Zac Efron and John Cena. The trailer also previews scenes from Jennifer Lopez’s documentary This Is Me…Now: The Film, rom-com Upgraded starring Camila Mendes, The Idea of You starring Anne Hathaway, and a bevy of other film projects
