Conor McGregor will be playing the character of Knox in the movie and his first look has impressed the fans. He will be the main antagonist to Jake Gyllenhaal’s character Dalton in the movie. Marshall Teague who played the role of chief villain Jimmy Reno in the 1989 movie joined TMZ Sports for an interview. During the interview, he praised the pair for their acting and fighting skills. However, the veteran actor pointed out a vast difference in the plot of both films.

He said: “He is the main bad guy but as in the other Roadhouse there’s always a string of bad guys. You know you have to go through the string to get to the baddest of the bad and that’s just the way it is and he’s going to. Jake is going to do that either in the ring or in the bar.”
