Guy Ritchie is set to direct the sequel to Amazon MGM's 2024 Road House remake, with Jake Gyllenhaal reprising his role as Elwood Dalton, the ex-UFC fighter-turned-bouncer. This sequel was confirmed in May of the previous year, shortly after the successful March 2024 release of the original, which garnered over 50 million views in its first two weekends on Prime, making it Amazon MGM Studios' most-watched film debut globally at the time.

The original 2024 Road House was directed by Doug Liman, known for films like The Bourne Identity and Edge of Tomorrow. However, Liman expressed dissatisfaction with the film's streaming release, stating that the movie was intended for a theatrical release and that neither he, Gyllenhaal, nor producer Joel Silver received compensation for the streaming views. In contrast, Gyllenhaal mentioned that Amazon had always been clear about the film's streaming destiny.

Road House 2 will mark the third collaboration between Guy Ritchie and Jake Gyllenhaal, following their work on the 2023 war film Guy Ritchie's The Covenant and the upcoming action thriller In the Grey, which also stars Henry Cavill and has no set release date yet.

Details on Road House 2 are limited, but the script is being penned by Will Beall, known for his work on Gangster Squad, Bad Boys: Ride or Die, and Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F.

Guy Ritchie remains busy, having directed multiple episodes of the newly launched Paramount+ series MobLand, starring Tom Hardy, and with his next film, Fountain of Youth, set to premiere on Apple TV+ later this month.
