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.

Jon Jones is set to return to the octagon Saturday night to take on Ciryl Gane for the heavyweight title in the main event of UFC 285.

But, no, if you were just casually paying attention, sorry to say that Gyllenhaal won’t be fighting Saturday night. And, yes, the actor was absolutely shredded. But if you were paying attention to the weigh-ins Saturday you might have seen a guy step onto the scales you were not expecting.

The actor has gone through an extreme physical transformation for the remake of the 1989 Patrick Swayze film.

On Friday, Jake was shooting a scene for the remake of Road House, in which he was required to be shirtless. Although Conor was present, he wasn't part of the scene. On Friday, Jake and MMA artist Conor McGregor crashed the UFC 285 weigh-in at T-Mobile Arena to film a scene for the film.

Acting sensation Jake Gyllenhaal has transformed himself from a Hollywood heart throb into a chiselled UFC maniac and his new gains were on full display at ...

He added: “He was always so loving and lovely to me. This a very bold character for Gyllenhall to take on, considering it is a remake of the character the late Patrick Swayze played in the 1989 original film. Gyllenhaal then threw a slap at his hulking opponent, triggering a huge melee between the pair. 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.

Jake Gyllenhaal is playing an MMA fighter in the upcoming 'Road House' remake and just filmed a scene showing off his physique at a UFC event.

Controversial UFC figure Conor McGregor also played a role in the scene, and is believed to have been cast as a henchman of the film's primary antagonist. 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.
