Overview
- Per Deadline, Liman has obtained rights to mount an independent sequel titled Road House: Dylan in partnership with R. Lance Hill.
- Amazon MGM Studios is developing its own follow-up to the 2024 remake with Jake Gyllenhaal returning under director Ilya Naishuller, with reports naming Dave Bautista, Aldis Hodge, and Leila George in the cast.
- A federal case contends Hill reclaimed the 1989 film’s copyright in November 2023, a claim that could affect ownership of the remake and any continuations.
- The unresolved litigation creates a range of outcomes that include the Liman–Hill project being halted or both sequels advancing under separate claims.
- Liman previously criticized Amazon’s decision to release his 2024 remake straight to Prime Video, penning an op-ed about the move.
