Malone is not only expanding his empire into country music, but he recently added another credit to his growing filmography.
The “Circles” singer acts in the newly released reimagining of 1989’s Road House, starring Jake Gyllenhaal in the role that the late Patrick Swayze made famous. Malone stars in the role of “Carter.”

When the news was first announced, Gyllenhaal took to Instagram to share a photo of himself with Post Malone. “A man of many talents. To say it was a pleasure working together is an understatement. Welcome to the #roadhouse @postmalone !” he wrote in the caption.
Though the singer is shifting his sights to Nashville, it’s one of his rap songs that continues to make waves.
He and Swae Lee cemented their place in the history books after they earned the first-ever song to achieve double diamond status.
Last month, the duo’s 2018 hit “Sunflower,” which was released as part of the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse soundtrack and later Post’s Hollywood’s Bleeding album, was certified 20x platinum by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America).
The historic plaque commemorated at least 20 million units sold in the U.S.
“Post Malone and Swae Lee have officially raised the bar on what creative partnerships and infectious collaborations have the power to accomplish,” Mitch Glazier, CEO and Chairman of the RIAA, said in a statement.

“‘Sunflower’ (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse) has now been streamed or downloaded more than 20 million times in the U.S. alone, and they’ve earned the custom hardware to prove it.”
