Jake Gyllenhaal's 'Road House' Sequel Rounds Up Guy Ritchie as Director
The sequel to Jake Gyllenhaal's Road House remake has now enlisted The Gentleman's Guy Ritchie to direct, taking over from Doug Liman.
Jake Gyllenhaal is headed back to the Florida Keys — and this time, he’s bringing Guy Ritchie with him. Amazon MGM Studios has officially greenlit Road House 2, a sequel to the wildly successful reboot of the 1989 cult classic. Gyllenhaal will reprise his role as Dalton, the ex-UFC fighter turned barroom bouncer with a mean right hook and even meaner enemies. And in a move that already has us buzzing, Ritchie will direct, stepping in for Doug Liman, who helmed the first film but exited after voicing frustration over its streaming release. It remains to be seen if the film will also include feuding gang families in London, or Jason Statham turning up, but who knows?
