Conor McGregor Fulfills Bodybuilding Royalty Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Longtime Wish With His Anticipated Hollywood Debut in Roadhouse With Jake Gyllenhaal

Conor McGregor stands out from all other UFC fighters in terms of his popularity. The brash attitude of the Irishman has gained him an unmatched following. McGregor is also a force to be feared inside the Octagon with his fierce left-hand strikes.

‘Mystic Mac’ is currently one of the most celebrated athletes not only in the MMA community but in the entire sporting world as well. McGregor’s idol and the famed actor-politician Arnold Schwarzenegger had recognized the capability of ‘Mystic Mac’ pretty early. He had predicted in 2015 that ‘The Notorious’ might decide to join Hollywood someday.

Schwarzenegger probably had the qualities of a mystic as well. His 2015 prediction of McGregor stepping into acting came to life in 2022.

How did Conor McGregor bring Arnold Schwarzenegger’s prediction to life?

Conor McGregor was included in the cast for the remake of the 1989 hit, Road House. The movie is set to feature Jake Gyllenhaal and Daniela Melchior in the lead roles. McGregor reportedly finished the shoot for the movie about a month back in the Dominican Republic.

He reminds me a little bit of the way I always was when I grew up in bodybuilding”.
