Jake Gyllenhaal amps up anticipation for “Road House” with a rigorous training regimen, showcasing his dedication in a behind-the-scenes clip. Portraying a former UFC fighter in the action-packed remake, the clip shows Gyllenhaal’s impeccable abs enduring 40 punches to the gut, underscoring his commitment to the role. Despite his stellar performance, controversy looms as director Doug Liman plans to boycott the premiere. Amazon forgoes theatrical release and chooses to stream. Liman criticizes the decision, arguing it deprives filmmakers and stars of recognition. Nevertheless, fans eagerly anticipate the film’s Prime Video debut on March 21, though gay fans lament the missed opportunity of seeing Gyllenhaal’s rock-hard body on the big screen.
