Road House soundtrack: All the songs in the remake – RadioTimes
by June 14, 2024Music plays an important part in the new film.
Doug Liman’s modern remake of the '80s cult classic Road House is upon us, with Jake Gyllenhaal taking on the action man mantle from Patrick Swayze.
Road House may share a name and premise with its predecessor but the new film, which cast member Lukas Gage (The White Lotus, You) recently called a "reimagining and not a reboot", also incorporates various modern elements into the story.
One factor that sets it apart from the original is its use of music, with director Doug Liman explaining that he wanted to bring a unique feel to the film's soundtrack.
“The story being set in the Florida Keys gave us a geographical perspective, and we wanted the music to be organic and authentic," he said.
"I wanted Randy [Poster, music supervisor] to find the types of bands that would actually play at a venue like the Road House."
Poster added: "We went to New Orleans and recorded three bands down there. All the bands on camera recorded their own music and played live when the scene demanded it.
"Doug gave me the freedom to lean into the music, and the parameters and the mission he gave me were clear: this is not your standard background use of live music; the bands are incorporated into the action."
In addition to the live performances, the film also features tracks by other artists including The Beach Boys and Post Malone – the latter of whom has a small acting role in the film.
