Road House’s Conor McGregor Already Subverts MMA Castings in a Big Way

It’s no secret Hollywood loves rebooting nostalgic properties. Now, 1980s fans are getting a RoadHouse remake, courtesy of director, Doug Liman. From the first trailer, it looks every bit as rambunctious as the original, but with added action zest that Liman laced into movies such as the Bourne franchise, and Mr. and Mrs. Smith.Fans have been left marveling at Jake Gyllenhaal’s physique and how he easily switches from artistic mode to popcorn movies like this. However, the debut clip has an even bigger scene-stealer in former UFC lightweight and featherweight champion, Conor McGregor. Initially, MMA fans thought it would be just a small cameo, but McGregor’s casting upgrades what was done with most athletes from his industry. In the best way possible, it reinforces that while McGregor’s inclusion won’t be superficial.Knox is sent to deal with Jake Gyllenhaal’s Dalton in the Florida Keys, on behalf of the sinister businessman, Ben (played by Lift’s Billy Magnussen). The capitalist wants to seize the property where Dalton works as a bouncer. However, he didn’t know Dalton was a former UFC middleweight fighter who hates bullies. Knox is the equalizer seen trashing the bar, picking fights and offering advice to Dalton not to get too close as he headbutts him. Later sequences show them rumbling, smashing each other’s heads into trucks and through windows.
