According to Deadline.com, WWE legend Dave Bautista has received an offer to appear in the upcoming film "Road House 2," which will be directed by Guy Ritchie. However, it's noted that discussions between Bautista and Amazon MGM Studios have not yet begun.
The report also mentions that the screenplay for the movie will be written by Will Beall. Jake Gyllenhaal is expected to reprise his role as Dalton, a former UFC fighter who works as a bouncer at a roadhouse in the Florida Keys. The original "Road House" film was a hit on Prime Video, attracting over 50 million viewers in its first two weekends and ultimately reaching 80 million viewers worldwide within its first eight weeks. At that time, Amazon announced it was the most-watched of their original movies.
The sequel will be produced by Charles Roven and Alex Gartner of Atlas Entertainment, along with Gyllenhaal’s Nine Stories Productions, which has Josh McLaughlin and Ivan Atkinson serving as executive producers.
