Batista is taking his Hollywood takeover to the next level by signing on for Road House 2—and fans are already bracing for the impact.
The official Road House Instagram account broke the news with a no-nonsense announcement, posting, “Welcome to the Road House @davebautista.”
That’s right—Batista is officially part of the sequel, joining Jake Gyllenhaal, who returns as Dalton, the ex-UFC fighter from the 2024 reboot. The original reboot pulled in serious numbers thanks to Gyllenhaal’s raw intensity and Conor McGregor’s surprise appearance, and now the stakes have been raised with Batista in the mix.
The former WWE Champion is no stranger to action. After headlining blockbusters like Dune, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Knock at the Cabin, Batista has shown that he’s more than capable of carrying gritty, explosive roles with depth and edge. His addition to Road House 2 isn’t just star power—it’s muscle, presence, and another level of credibility for the franchise.
Batista has made it clear in past interviews that he wants roles that challenge him, and Road House 2 seems like the next evolution. Whether he’s teaming up with Gyllenhaal or squaring off, fans can expect intensity.
This is a massive get for the Road House sequel, which is shaping up to be even more action-packed than the first film. Pairing Gyllenhaal and Batista is a dream scenario for fans of raw, no-nonsense action flicks—and the franchise is clearly going all-in.
