Jake Gyllenhaal

The actor will star alongside Irish professional mixed martial artist Conor McGregor in a remake of Road House.

It is unknown how big Connor’s role in the project will be. Jake then performed a full UFC weigh-in routine in front of a raucous crowd. “Everyone in this arena, you’re about to be part of my movie that’s coming out with myself and Jake Gyllenhall.

He added: “He was always so loving and lovely to me.

We made a movie when I was pretty young called Donnie Darko together.” The 42-year-old has got into unbelievable shape for his role, which sees him play a former UFC fighter who becomes a bouncer in the Florida Keys. Just give it to me.

Jake Gyllenhaal and Conor McGregor are set to star in Road House, and shot a secret at a UFC weigh-in, but fans were not impressed by them.

He first tried to take a shoe off and then probably remembered it was a “ceremonial weigh in” and left the shoe on!! The movie is set to be released by Amazon Studios. Most viewers of the YouTube video did not react positively to the entire scene. Fans were stunned by the change in events. Viewers were taken by surprise as the two went on stage and got weighed in. Recent reports have suggested and confirmed that he has a budding Hollywood career in the wings, much like professional wrestler-turned-superstar actor Dwayne Johnson.

A video of the actor shared by ESPN MMA just went viral, in which he can be seen shedding his short and showing off his lean, ripped physique while filming a scene from an upcoming movie at the UFC 285 event in Las Vegas. Stills from the clip are now all over the internet, showing Gyllenhaal flexing and mugging for the crowd during the ceremonial weigh-in, before squaring up to UFC champion Jay Hieron ahead of a fictitious "Dalton vs Harris" fight that will be a part of the movie.

Gyllenhaal was joined by Conor McGregor at UFC 285 weigh-ins to shoot a scene for the upcoming movie.

An official backdrop for their bout in the film could be seen behind them, as their fight was taking place at UFC 222 for the middleweight title. Moments after Jones stepped on the scale, McGregor came out and announced Gyllenhaal would be having a mock weigh-in with Hieron for one of the scenes in Road House.
