Jake Gyllenhaal as Dalton in Road House
Summary Road House reboot director reflects on the movie's straight-to-streaming release, and doubles down on his criticism of it. Serving as a new take on 1989's Road House, which starred the late Patrick Swayze, the 2024 reboot sees Jake Gyllenhaal taking on the role of Dalton, an MMA fighter-turned-bouncer who takes a job at a violent Florida dive bar.
“My issue on ‘Road House’ is that we made the movie for MGM to be in theaters, everyone was paid as if it was going to be in theaters, and then Amazon switched it on us and nobody got compensated. Forget about the effect on the industry — 50 million people saw ‘Road House’ — I didn’t get a cent, Jake Gyllenhaal didn’t get a cent, Joel Silver didn’t get a cent. That’s wrong.
“Matt and Ben with Artists Equity are committed in the same way. They want to make big, fun, commercial movies, but they want to make movies that resonate with an audience and that stick with you.” Road House's Streaming Release Controversy Explained What Jake Gyllenhaal Has Said The controversy surrounding Road House's release stems from an op-ed that Liman published in Deadline in January 2024. Liman was originally in business with MGM for Road House and, since MGM was a theatrical movie company, the film presumably would've gone to theaters. In 2022, however, Amazon purchased MGM, and this is a major point in Liman's op-ed.
