Scott, Mr. No-Stunt-Man-Required, Adkins has no problem making a fan’s birthday wish come true. The actor, martial artist, producer, screenwriter and gymnast took to Twitter to respond to a birthday request from Adkins to revive Dalton in a Road House reboot. The fans seem to be in complete agreement. He captioned with the response, “Best idea I’ve ever heard.”
Scott adkins has made a name for himself as an actor with incredible martial arts skills and a true super fan of his predecessors. He has worked and fanboyed with some of his biggest idols including Jean-Claude Van Damme, Jet Li, Chuck Norris, Ray Park, etc. He was an action hero. But what might make him the perfect fit to fill in Dalton’s tight black t-shirt is his mix of acting, stunts, and the zen that Patrick Swayze’s character uses to keep his cool in this. which would otherwise be considered a brash job of a bouncer.
Swayze’s portrait of Dalton in the original Relay, though fiery as it may be, tells the story of a man’s redemption and the search for peace in a career he was physically and mentally made for. He had his philosophy degree. It’s not just an action movie. It’s an actor’s action movie. Luckily for Adkins, he’s trained in both. He took acting lessons, but couldn’t afford to stay in school.
However, since he was in elementary school he has studied martial arts, and they came in handy when offered a small role in the 2001 action movie Jackie Chan. Amateur spy. In the late 2000s, Adkins, now in lead roles, resumed appearing almost exclusively in action films, including Undisputed II: Last Man Standing and its sequel, Undisputed III: Redemption, as good as Assassination games, which also starred Jean-Claude Van Damme. Adkins reunited with Van Damme twice in 2012, with the two tough guys starring in The Expendables 2 and Universal Soldier: Reckoning Day.
Can Adkins make a Relay that all fans would appreciate? Relay came on the heels of Dirty dance, and it caught the attention of all women where other action movies might not have. We saw the poster. Tight jeans? To verify. Glorious mule? To verify. A tough guy who saves the ladies in a dance environment? We will meet over there. I’m not a career maker by any means, but my teenage memory is that we took care of the sensitive Swayze.
The film was panned by critics, but fans are holding on. It’s a rough, tumbling action flick with a heart that included beloved Sam Elliott, and favorite character actor and X musician John Doe. May I suggest we see the softer side of Adkins, so we can all flock to theaters and celebrate Dalton’s return in The Double Deuce? Swayze shows his buns in both Dirty dance and Relay. I’m just saying?
In 2015, Ronda Rousey was scheduled to star in a remake of Road House, which had Notebook Director Nick Cassavetes has officially signed on to direct. That was over six years ago, and no word on what happened to the proposed reboot has surfaced in the meantime. It is likely that Relay will be restarted or redone in one form or another. And it is important not to forget it Road House 2: last call is a real movie released in 2006, a straight-to-DVD action flick starring Johnathon Schaech that some fans have given up on entirely, while a few actually consider him a favorite.
