Prime Video is bringing a modern twist to the cult classic movie Road House — and it’s already breaking records. Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, the 2024 version premiered on streaming Thursday (March 21), and you can watch Road House online now.
It’s clear viewers were excited for Road House‘s streaming premiere as the movie racked up more than 50 million global viewers during its first two weekends, according to Deadline. The outlet also reported that during filming, the production used Imax cameras to create cleaner, higher-quality imagery.
What can you expect in the new version? The updated action-thriller movie follows Dalton (Gyllenhaal), an ex-UFC fighter looking to escape his dark past and appetite for violence. While struggling to scrape by, he’s approached by the owner of a roadhouse in Florida Keys who hires him as a bouncer with the hope of stopping a violent gang and their crime boss, Brandt (Billy Magnussen), from destroying her bar. Things only take a turn for the worse when Knox (Conor McGregor), a ruthless gun-for-hire, enters the mix. As the bloodshed and violence escalates, Dalton realizes he’s facing worse than the UFC ever threw at him.
You can see Post Malone star as the character Carter, an underground fighter who faces Dalton. Road House joins the growing list of movies the Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper has been involved with, including Jennifer Lopez’s short film This Is Me…Now and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem.
Other cast members include Jessica Williams, Daniela Melchior, Joaquim De Almeida and Lukas Gage.
