Conor McGregor shares his excitement on Road House London Premier. In Prime’s thrilling reimagining of the iconic Patrick Swayze 1980s action thriller Road House, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Conor McGregor makes a dramatic film debut. However, the former UFC champion says there wasn’t much acting involved.
In the movie, McGregor, 35, portrays henchman for hire Knox, who poses the biggest threat to Jake Gyllenhaal’s character Dalton, who is trying to keep Frankie’s (Jessica Williams) Florida Keys club safe from the thugs interfering with her operations.
The Irish boxer and MMA fighter Conor McGregor stated at the Road House film’s London premiere that learning how to stage fight instead of scrapping was not a difficult task for him.
During the premier, Conor told the reporters “There was no acting – there was no pulled punches. We were taking hits and giving hits, and you’re going to see it in the movie!”
