It’s been nearly seven years since news broke that Ronda Rousey would star in a remake of the 1989 cult classic “Road House.”
At the time, Rousey was the UFC’s women’s bantamweight champion and one of the biggest sports stars in the world. She had three acting roles under her belt – “The Expendables 3,” “Furious 7” and “Entourage” – and appeared to be on the cusp of crossover stardom from sports to Hollywood.
Rousey was going to play a female version of the character played by Patrick Swayze in the original film, but somewhere along the line it appears her attachment to the picture died on the vine. The movie as a whole, however, did not.
