Guy Ritchie Confirmed to Direct Amazon's Road House 2 With Jake Gyllenhaal

Amazon MGM Studios has confirmed that Guy Ritchie will direct Road House 2, with Jake Gyllenhaal returning to reprise his role as Dalton from the successful 2024 remake. Ritchie, who previously collaborated with Gyllenhaal on The Covenant, takes over from Doug Liman, who openly criticized Amazon's handling of the first film's streaming release and is not expected to return. Will Beal, known for his work on Bad Boys: Ride or Die, will write the sequel's script. The first Road House remake, which debuted on Prime Video, quickly became Amazon's most-watched produced film debut, amassing nearly 80 million viewers in its first eight weeks. While plot details for the sequel remain under wraps, the project marks a continued partnership between Ritchie and Gyllenhaal and signals Amazon's commitment to expanding the Road House franchise. Production and casting details beyond Gyllenhaal's involvement have not yet been disclosed.
