in talks to direct. When this would go into production is still TBD as Gyllenhaal is about to shoot Guy Ritchie’spic, though insiders add, execs are already meeting with writers to rewrite a previous draft and view the film as a high priority.
Released in 1989, the original film starred Patrick Swayze as, Dalton, a bouncer hired to clean up one of the rowdiest, loudest bars in Missouri, The Double Deuce. Swayze’s character is put to the test when he needs to protect the town from a corrupt businessman. The film became an instant hit and is still considered a favorite role among fans of the late Swayze.
As for this reboot, its unknown if its a straight remake or a new modern take on the material and its also unknown if Gyllenhaal will be playing the role of Dalton or play a completely new character in that world. Given Liman’s track record of high-speed thrills and action along with his innovative style with rich and interesting stories, audiences can expect that same fun that the original delivered on.
He also recently had a strong night at the 2021 Tony Awards earning nominations for Lead Actor for his work on
FLOP
Do. Not. Do. It.
Who do I need to kill in order to prevent this atrocity? Give me a name.
Should never happen
Please for the love of god no
EITMonline Stop remaking swayze classics. Point Break was totallly unnecessary and this is too, awful
Don’t do it!
The should pick a man.
No. Roadhouse is perfect.
Stop.
Jake Gyllenhaal please don't waste your considerable acting talents on this drivel. It was a terrible movie back then, like one of the top 10 movies undeserving of a remake, ever. MGM, grow some originality please.
Seemed pretty good where it was. Unless it's a prequel style that maybe goes to the Wade Garrett story and then discovering Dalton. Because according to the movie folklore, Wade was the original bad ass. Then maybe end with him 'finding' Dalton. I'd be into that
Ok, he has as good hair as Swayze, but nobody can pull off the Sam Elliot stache.
Oh my God. No. Just no.
Hollyweird will make him a gay biracial trans man having a baby
Leave it the f uc k alone.
It’s already a perfect film! WTF!
Jake is a good actor but you don't mess with Road House bruhs
I can’t see anyone in this movie besides the Swayze Dog!
Remake premise: Bouncer at rowdy southern bar has to deal with turning away unvaccinated at the door, and fighting a corrupt politician who makes the bar into a litmus test? ;) It's bound to be a 'modernization.' The protagonist was originally recast as female, per the article.
Oh please dear little baby Jesus no.
No
Oh no! Road House is listed in The Official Razzie Movie Guide as one of The 100 Most Enjoyably Bad Movies Ever Made but now Jake Gyllenhaal is in talks to star in a reboot...
This remake was superior
No offense intended but GTFOH!
Patrick will be rolling in his grave.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Nope,
🚩🚩🚩
Recleaning a turd movie
Your tweet was quoted in an article by dailycaller
This is already dumb
Why remake an absolutely perfect movie?
Let. It. Be. Jake Gyllenhaal is a GREAT actor (mpo) however, there isn't a soul on THIS planet that could ever hold a candle to Swayze!!! NO NEED to remake a classic. They did the SAME thing with Beaches and a few others. Leave shit alone.
Nope!
we don’t need or want this. stop it.
Get some new ideas!
Get out of here. Dalton says it’s time to not be nice.
TRAAASSSHHH😂😂😂
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Yes, but as a bouncer at texasroadhouse 👊😤
Horrible idea. Hollywood must be out of ideas. Maybe try shrooms?
Yeah....I don't get 'The Cooler' vibes off of Jake Gyllenhaal. Everything isn't meant to be remade, people🤦🏽♀️
Can never be another!!
Gyllenhaal is a great actor, but Road House in no way needs to be remade. It’s only well-liked because of Swayze.
Hollywood does absolutely nothing original anymore. All just remakes, which are typically far worse than the original.
Remaking mediocre movies is so on brand for new age Hollywood.
Who asked for this remake?
Sounds good , Sam Elliott can still play Sam Elliot
Nope.
Are no new stories being told?
Don't do Dalton dirty like this, for the love of God please.
Wasn't RondaRousey supposed to be in a remake a few years ago?
Why can't they just make a movie with its own name? Why they always fucking up the classics Bad move Jake boy
This is one of the many reasons people stopped watching movies. Straight garbage.
Loved Swayze!! But let’s not forget he was maybe 5’10/170lbs. Not exactly someone you would have been afraid of as a bouncer. 😉
In other news I’m in talks to remake the Mona Lisa.
I thought you'd be bigger!!
Or we could you know..... not ruin a classic movie.
How about you all just get creative again instead of living off others ideas and ruining good films, just for money. Remake after remake or worse 'reboot' that's well worse
chimairamark you believe this shit?
Jake Gyllenhall is a very good actor. I think he'll pull it off.
Stop. Just stop
Lol please stop
Give it a fucking rest already
Jake Gyllenhaal?
No
Worst news of the week
The original was fucking terrible
Wait wha? Nobody is asking for this!
Lol no
They screwed up the remake of Swayze’s Red Dawn I’m sure this one will be bad too.
Absolutely all of the nopes.
The Patrick Swayze film? Why?
No no no
Make something original
No no no no no no no
NO!
No!
I fell asleep reading this
How about coming up with an original idea ffs?
Someone really hates 'Road House'
God, the original was so incredibly awful... I loved it so f'n much!
I regret that I cannot avoid seeing this more.
Hollywood has to be stopped
New ideas please.
Jake Gyllenhall? Lol. Not exactly a 'cooler' I'd be afraid of.
Who is asking for this?
Cannot remake a film that is already perfect....😆
Stop! Stop it right now!
Translation:They will make it woke and it will suck.
Nobody puts Jakey in the corner
Pain don’t hurt , but this will
Pure blasphemy
No one could do this better than Patrick Swayze. Don't try to fix what ain't broken. I'm giving this a hard no.
Don’t mess with a classic
Just no.
Hollywood is dead.
LET THE MAN REST IN PEACE
no. tell them no
it will suck. You can't remake this film because most of hollywood doesn't have 1/8th of the talent of Patrick Swayze. Same applies for Sam Elliot.
Momoa as Dawson or GTFO.
Please just don’t
Terrible idea jwatson31
what the fuck man
LG_Rohena como es
all the yesses for this
The only Road House I need.
Only works if they give it to Gaspar Noé sorry
This guy needs to be Dalton… and James Franco needs to be Wade Garrett…
This is terrible, this idea.
The greatest movie about bouncing ever made
What I want to do to this idea!!!
I don’t understand why anyone would ever remake a great movie. Here’s an idea…remake movies that sucked and make them good.
Remember when Ronda Rousey was gonna be in this?
Leave it alone!
Gyllenhaal is a poor choice for the role. So many better candidates. Pick someone who bring emotions to the iconic role of Dawson.
I know a guy who can play Tinker. He’s a construction guy now I hear
JCphoto2
DarthAmin talkhoops CornPuzzle I see an episode in the future if this gets made. There better be some throat rips
sequelsonly riccardi17 Why?! Why!?
And there goes Patrick Swayze turning in his grave as we speak.
Ben_Rodgers Gabrus 😐
Huge Mistake. Just leave it alone!
Don't do it
I thought Ronda Rousey going be in New road house remake movie👈
Scott Adkins or GTFO
No!
NotJackKemp bracketdan
It's unknown if the pic is a straight remake or a new modern take on the material and it's also unknown if Gyllenhaal will be playing the role of Dalton or play a completely new character in that world
