Conor McGregor tells TMZ Sports his role in the new “Road House” reboot will be far from his last appearance on the silver screen … saying this week he’s got a whole lot more irons in the cinema fire.
The UFC superstar made no bones about it when we asked him about his acting future while he was out in NYC promoting the new Jake Gyllenhaal flick … telling us “of course” he’s planning to keep pursuing the new career.
It’s unclear exactly what’s coming next for the 35-year-old fighter … but when we asked if he had any more roles lined up at the moment — he said straight up, “For sure, for sure!”
“Oh, yes!” he added.
As for how job No. 1 in the new industry went for The Notorious, so far, it seems so good. Early reviews for the “Road House” reimagining are positive … and the clips we’ve gotten to see so far show McGregor certainly knows how to kick ass on command on cam.
Of course, McGregor’s still keeping up with his day job despite the foray into Hollywood … he’s been training hard for a future bout with Michael Chandler.

But, first, it seems it’ll be all about schmoozing for paps on red carpets for now … something we all apparently better get used to seeing from McGregor going forward.
