Months After Jake Gyllenhaal’s UFC Stunt Left Fans Dazed, Major Update on Conor McGregor Co-Starrer ‘Road House’ Disclosed by UFC Star

Conor McGregor may not be as close to his UFC return as fight fans would like him to be, but that does not stop him from having a good time with them. The UFC star met a group of fans outside his hotel and signed some autographs. During the short interaction, the 34-year-old also dropped an update on a potential release date for his Hollywood debut movie ‘Road House.’ The Irishman did the filming for the same last year, alongside co-stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Daniela Melchior among others. In a surprise take, the crew shot some scenes for the film at the UFC 285 weigh-ins where McGregor and Gyllenhaal made a surprise appearance.

McGregor has been out of action since his leg break in 2021. During his time away from the cage, the former two-weight champion decided to foray into Hollywood. McGregor found his opportunity in Amazon Studios’ remake of the cult classic ‘Road House.’ According to reports, McGregor played an original character alongside the lead star Jake Gyllenhaal. The filming for the same had wrapped last year, but a release date has not been announced yet. However, McGregor gave the fans a heads-up on when to expect the film.
