Guy Ritchie officially confirmed to direct Road House 2

May 1, 2025 by EJ Moreno

As we mentioned, prolific filmmaker Guy Ritchie wanted to tackle the fun action of Road House 2, and now Deadline has confirmed he’s on board.

The outlet reports that Ritchie has signed on to helm the sequel for Amazon MGM Studios. The director will step in for Doug Liman, who has stepped away due to a dispute with the studio.

Road House star Jake Gyllenhaal is on board to reprise his role as Dalton. Will Beall is reportedly penning the script for this sequel. Plot details are still under wraps.

Charles Roven and Alex Gartner are producing for Atlas Entertainment, alongside Gyllenhaal and Josh McLaughlin of Nine Stories Productions. Ivan Atkinson will executive produce.

​The 2024 remake of Road House, directed by Liman and starring Jake Gyllenhaal, achieved extraordinary success. Over its first two weekends on Amazon Prime Video, the film attracted 50 million global viewers, making it Amazon MGM Studios’ most-watched debut ever.

In 2025 alone, Ritchie has been quite busy. He’s released the new Tom Hardy-led series MobLand and is awaiting the release of Fountain of Youth on Apple TV+ [watch the trailer here] and In the Grey, which sees Ritchie teaming with Gyllenhaal alongside Henry Cavill and Eiza González.
