In a new version of the cult movie “Road House,” Jake Gyllenhaal will play the lead role. The movie, according to CNN, will be “a revamped take” on the 1989 blockbuster with Patrick Swayze. Doug Liman, the filmmaker of The Bourne Identity, will direct the endeavor.

Plot in the Making

Gyllenhaal plays a former UFC fighter in the new movie, which tells the story of how he “takes a job as a bouncer at a rough-and-tumble roadhouse in the Florida Keys, but soon realizes that not everything is what it seems in this tropical paradise.”

Who’s Involved

Amazon Prime will release the project. The project also includes Lukas Gage, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Billy Magnussen, and Daniela Melchior. Later this month, the movie will begin filming in the Dominican Republic. Joel Silver is directing through Silver Pictures, his business. Aaron Auch, Alison Winter, and JJ Hook will serve as executive producers.

The initial news of plans for a remake starring Gyllenhaal and Liman surfaced in 2021. MGM, the owner of the film’s rights, had long thought the IP held promise for a remake.

In a recent interview, Ariana Grande’s Sam & Cat co-star Jennette McCurdy admitted that she occasionally felt “jealous” of how the singer was treated.

The Opportunities

In her memoir, McCurdy, 30, discusses her time at Nickelodeon. She asserts that although she had to decline other jobs while working on iCarly, Grande was given permission to miss the production of Sam & Cat in order to participate in other shoots and events.

Leading Up to It

McCurdy said she quickly became ‘jealous’ and ‘pissed’ with Grande as a result of the singer being able to forego shooting in order to attend other events.

The last straw, according to McCurdy, came when her former co-star confessed she had spent the previous evening playing charades at Tom Hanks’ house when she arrived at work. It was difficult not to compare her professional path to Grande’s.

Arcane was one of Netflix’s top hits in 2021, receiving accolades from fans of other video games as well as League of Legends. Now even more successful, the show won numerous Emmy Awards in 2022.

Hitting Three Birds with One Stone

After the results of certain juried Individual Achievement in Animation categories were revealed, Arcane received three different awards for its exquisite, unusual animation.

Going 1 Up

Arcane is still in contention even though the Outstanding Animated Program grand prize has not yet been awarded. To win this honor, the Netflix series must battle heavyweights like Bob’s Burgers, Rick and Morty, The Simpsons, and Marvel’s What If?

In November 2021, Netflix released Arcane to wrap out the year’s final quarter. Arcane was an animated League hit that ran nine episodes over three parts. A second season of the program is unavoidably in the works given its popularity.
