It is a great honor to play a part in celebrating the life of a man that inspired so many. I couldn't be more grateful to have this opportunity to pay respect to the beloved Patrick Swayze... I promise to work incessantly to make sure this project is a tribute his family and fans can be proud of.

Hopefully her acting improves. The movie should have cheese like the original, but if her acting isn't improved it'll just come off like DTV release.

I'll bet feminists everywhere are getting wet over this news, what a load of bullshit. They will not stop until every form of entertainment that appeals solely to guys is completely destroyed.

Rousey sounds cool about it, and could be believable in the role. I just hate this trend.

It's more about Rousey's popularity at the moment than her being the right person for the job
Rousey is the better real fighter
Gina Carano is the better actress and screen fighter

The remake will be so bad it will be able to suck-start a Harley.

The only way this could sound worse is if Christopher Nolan wrote and directed with his brother and Hans Zimmer did the "score".
I am still waiting for a Steel Magnolias remake with Ahnuld, Sly, Van Damme and Chuck Norris.

Yes, Swayze has given great performances, but he's also been in movies where real acting wasn't necessary. Tom Cruise proved it with Cocktail, where real acting wasn't a priority.

Wait, are you saying that a hot woman who kicks ass doesn't appeal to guys? Like, you really believe that?

Re: "Roadhouse" remake in the works
and this remake will miss one of the best parts of the original
The sexual terrorism of the town babe (and Swayze's eventual love interest)
Maybe Rousey's character can be a lesbian ?

You can't get stachless Sam Elliot.
Either way, she can't act for shit and even when she's just being herself on camera, it's painful. Ugggh, Entourage film... ugh.

There are roles where acting isnt necessary. But talent wise Rousey is an acting vacuum. Shes so bad that your attention cant help but be drawn to the fact that shes terrible. The vacuum sucks the life out of whatever scene shes in. Shes Paris Hilton bad.
Hopefully she can get some acting lessons and improve.

Paris Hilton was decent in Repo! The Genetic Opera.

Re: "Roadhouse" remake in the works
Casting Rhonda Rousey pretty much confirms that this will be PG-13. Everything that made the original endure for so long will not be included because of the female lead. No bloody bar brawls, random nudity, no modern day equivalent to Kelly Lynch, and no bad cheesy dialogue. If Rousey is a lesbian that might be interesting but there is no way that could happen for a major studio picture. Also is Rob Cohen still directing? That guy has never made a good movie in his life.
