Jake Gyllenhaal's dedication to his role in the 'Road House' remake is evident in his commitment to his physical transformation for the film. Co-star Hannah Love Lanier revealed that Gyllenhaal adhered to a strict diet regimen during filming, even going as far as trying to convince others that rice paper wafer crackers were delicious despite their cardboard-like taste.
During filming in the Dominican Republic, Gyllenhaal's intense workout routine led to moments where he had to cool off by removing his shirt due to the sweltering heat. Lanier mentioned that there were instances of some flexing as he did so, adding a touch of humor to the filming process.
