Road House cast: All the stars in the 2024 remake for Amazon Prime Video
Jake Gyllenhaal leads the cast of the new Prime Video action flick – which sees UFC star Conor McGregor make his acting debut.
Stepping into the shoes of the late Patrick Swayze is no easy feat – but that's the task that awaits Jake Gyllenhaal in Prime Video's new reimagining of 1989 cult classic Road House.
According to RadioTimes.com, the star is certainly up to the task, with our review calling his performance in the action movie a "class act".
Gyllenhaal is also joined in the cast by a rather unlikely co-star: Conor McGregor. Of course, the Irishman is already a huge name thanks to his UFC and boxing career and makes his memorable debut film appearance as villain Knox in the new movie.
He's one of many faces you might recognise in the 2024 film Road House – read on for a full cast list including some extra details about who they're playing and where you might have seen them before.
