The Fall Guy

The Fall Guy

2DCS12
Director:David Leitch
Cast:Ryan Gosling, Emily Blunt, Hannah Waddingham, Aaron Taylor-Johnson
Premiere:2. May 2024
Length:128 minutes
Genre:Romantic, Action, Comedy

Director: David Leitch  •  Scenario: Drew Pearce, Glen A. Larson  •  Cast: Ryan Gosling, Emily Blunt, Hannah Waddingham, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Lee Majors

David Leitch, former stuntman and current director of the hit Bullet Train, has made an action-packed comedy with Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.

Stuntman Colt Seavers (Ryan Gosling) used to be a star in his field until one particularly challenging action scene went wrong. An uncontrolled fall from a great height left Colt with a bruised body and ego. He decided to bid the film industry a final farewell, even dumping the beautiful and up-and-coming director Jody (Emily Blunt) to do so.

But after a year of hanging around, he gets bored and quite gratefully accepts an offer from an ambitious producer to play the understudy to action star Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) in an upcoming ambitious sci-fi film. But when he learns that the film is being made by his former love Jody, he must have thought: "If I'd known, I wouldn't have come here." And that's not the only trouble. The whole shoot is heading for a nosedive as key actor Tom Ryder has disappeared to parts unknown. And Colt's tasked with finding him, because he can give and take a punch, and no one will miss him if he, too, happens to disappear. All of which turns Colt's priorities in life upside down. He realizes that he has missed the world of film terribly, that director Jody is the love of his life, and that if he can't find the star of her film alive and able to work, it might ruin her career. For one ordinary stuntman, that's a pretty decent load. Because as he says, "I'm not a hero, I'm just an understudy."
