Jake Gyllenhaal Meets Fred The Tree

The Key’s very own celebri-tree is in the “Road House” remake

The remake of Road House is set in the Florida Keys and features Jake Gyllenhaal, Conor McGregor and some nice moments with Post Malone. But I loved how the brief spotlight on Fred The Tree. If you’re unfamiliar with Fred, well - he grows out of a section of the old Seven Mile Bridge. Seemingly growing out of concrete, Fred (actually an Australian Pine) is a symbol of hope and resilience. And just the latest Florida resident with an IMDB page.
