MMA fighter and two-time UFC champion Conor McGregor is about to make her big film debut in Jake Gyllenhaalis the recently announced remake of Street house.
Doug Liman (Edge of tomorrow) will direct the film, and in this version of the story Gyllenhaal plays a former UFC fighter “who takes a job as a bouncer at a rude hangout in the Florida Keys, but soon discovers that not everything is as it seems in this tropical paradise.”
With the UFC playing a big part in the story, it makes sense to pick an MMA fighter like McGregor to be in the film. While there are no details on who will play McGregor, the report states that he will play “an original character and not himself in the project”.
McGregor joins the previous cast Billy Magnussen, Daniela Melchior, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Lukas Gage, Hannah Love Lanier, Travis Van Winkle, BK Cannon, Arturo Castro, Dominique Columbus, Beau Knapp And Bob Menery.
There’s really no reason to remake this movie, but this is Hollywood for you!
