Doug Liman’s latest film, ‘Road House’, will be the opening night feature at the upcoming SXSW festival.

Ryan Gosling’s next blockbuster, ‘The Fall Guy’, will also debut at the same event.

‘Road House’ is a reboot of the 1989 Patrick Swayze cult classic, with Jake Gyllenhaal in the lead role.

Liman is disappointed that ‘Road House’ will go straight to Amazon Prime Video instead of being released in theaters.

Liman is critical of Amazon’s acquisition of MGM and the impact on big movie launches.

The movie has ties to UFC and potential for $1.5 billion in social media impressions.

The movie promises a UFC twist with a brawl between Gyllenhaal’s character and Conor McGregor.

The film is set to kick off the SXSW festival in a couple of months.
