Popular Hollywood actor Jake Gyllenhaal shared his experience filming the movie "Road House" together with former UFC double champion Conor McGregor.
Gyllenhaal told Sportskeeda:
He knows how to fight, obviously, but he doesn't know how to fake fight! I had to remind him pretty constantly, just before takes, ‘Just remember don't get you don't need to actually punch me in the face.’ He's like, ‘Oh, right, right, right.’ You know, as if in his mind, he was ready to really do it.
Gyllenhaal played the lead role in the film, while McGregor portrayed an antagonist. The movie is set to premiere on Amazon Prime Video streaming on March 21, 2024, following its debut at the SXSW event on March 8, 2024.
