The brand new Highway Home film, a remake of the 1989 cult traditional, set an all-time file for Prime Video throughout its first two weekends, in line with Deadline, racking up a whopping 50 million international viewers. Starring Jake Gyllenhaal and former UFC two-division champion Conor McGregor, Highway Home went direct to streaming (a lot to the chagrin of director Doug Liman) again on March 21.
“The groundbreaking, profitable debut of Highway Home is a testomony to the exhausting work and dedication from the complete Highway Home filmmaking workforce and the movie’s solid led by the outstanding Jake Gyllenhaal,” stated Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon MGM Studios. “The world is completely loving this entertaining, action-packed experience anchored by the performances of Jake, Conor McGregor, Daniela Melchior, Darren Barnet, Billy Magnussen, Jessica Williams, Lukas Gage, Arturo Castro, JD Pardo and the remainder of our stellar solid.

This unimaginable movie is admittedly giving everybody one thing to speak about, and we couldn’t be extra proud!”
McGregor, 35, is anticipated to make his UFC return in some unspecified time in the future later this 12 months, presumably towards former Final Fighter (TUF) 31 coach Michael Chandler. No phrase but on when or the place that struggle will happen, however “Infamous” remains to be “holding hope for June 29” on the promotion’s big-ticket pay-per-view (PPV) blockbuster in Las Vegas.
