“Road House,” a remake of the 1989 cult classic starring Patrick Swayze, hits Prime Video on March 21 and ahead of the premiere, the promotional push continued.
On Tuesday, Amazon MGM Studios released posters for each of the main characters, including Jake Gyllenhaal, UFC star [autotag]Conor McGregor[/autotag], and rapper Post Malone as an MMA fighter.
The new “Road House” stars Gyllenhaal as Swayze’s lead role of Dalton who, in this version, is a down-and-out former UFC fighter trying to put his life back together when he’s approached by a Florida Keys roadhouse owner to be her bouncer in hopes of restoring order at her establishment that’s been plagued by violent gang activity.
Here is the synopsis for the film:
Road House stars Jake Gyllenhaal as Dalton, an ex-UFC fighter trying to escape his dark past and his penchant for violence, in this adrenaline-fueled actioner. Dalton is barely scraping by on the reputation that still precedes him when he is spotted by Frankie (Jessica Williams), owner of a roadhouse in the Florida Keys. She hires him to be her new bouncer in hopes of stopping a violent gang, working for crime boss Brandt (Billy Magnussen), from destroying her beloved bar. Even five to one, Brandt’s crew is no match for Dalton’s skills. But the stakes get higher with the arrival of ruthless gun-for-hire, Knox (Conor McGregor). As the brutal brawls and bloodshed escalate, the tropical Keys prove more dangerous than anything Dalton ever faced in the Octagon. Also starring Daniela Melchior, Joaquim De Almeida, Lukas Gage.
The “Road House” trailer, which you can watch in the video above, was released Jan. 25 and now below you can check out the individual character posters.
