YouTube Trailer


He’s a stuntman, and like everyone in the stunt community, he gets blown up, shot, crashed, thrown through windows and dropped from the highest of heights, all for our entertainment. And now, fresh off an almost career-ending accident, this working-class hero has to track down a missing movie star, solve a conspiracy and try to win back the love of his life while still doing his day job. What could possibly go right?

From real life stunt man and director David Leitch, the blockbuster director of Bullet Train, Deadpool 2, Atomic Blonde and Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw and the producer of John Wick, Nobody and Violent Night, comes his most personal film yet. A new hilarious, hard-driving, all-star apex-action thriller and love letter to action movies and the hard-working and under-appreciated crew of people who make them: The Fall Guy.

Oscar® nominee Ryan Gosling (Barbie, La La Land, Drive) stars as Colt Seavers, a battle-scarred stuntman who, having left the business a year earlier to focus on both his physical and mental health, is drafted back into service when the star of a mega-budget studio movie—being directed by his ex, Jody Moreno, played by Golden Globe winner Emily Blunt (Oppenheimer, A Quiet Place films, Sicario)—goes missing.

While the film’s ruthless producer (Emmy winner Hannah Waddingham; Ted Lasso), maneuvers to keep the disappearance of star Tom Ryder (Golden Globe winner Aaron Taylor-Johnson; Bullet Train) a secret from the studio and the media, Colt performs the film’s most outrageous stunts while trying (with limited success) to charm his way back into Jody’s good graces. But as the mystery around the missing star deepens, Colt will find himself ensnared in a sinister, criminal plot that will push him to the edge of a fall more dangerous than any stunt.

Inspired by the hit 1980s TV series, The Fall Guy also stars Winston Duke (Black Panther franchise) and Academy Award® nominee Stephanie Hsu (Everything Everywhere All at Once).

I'm not 50+ either, but I do vaguely remember the show (thanks older brothers).

Pretty sure I asked my parents for the Colt Seavers action figure lol

I blame the easy access to porn as the reason TV shows like The Fall Guy, TJ Hooker, Bay Watch, Miami Vice, Hardcastle & McCormick, and to some degree, The Dukes of Hazard no longer have an audience.

Being in the over 50 gang, I vividly remember The Fall Guy. It came out in the early 80's (1981) and was probably inspired by the entertaining Burt Reynolds 1978 "Hooper".

I was a Lee Majors fan because of "the Six Million Dollar Man" and The Fall Guy was a campy 1980's show about a Stuntman/Bounty Hunter who used to do jobs for Markie Post (Smoke show).



To my surprise this trailer looks like it has a chance of being a good flick.

Was it? Based on that trailer I'd say no. Colt Seavers was a stuntman and bounty hunter, with the bounty hunter part being the bulk of the TV show focus.

I'm not saying I wouldn't watch that movie, just that this movie seems to have zero to do with the show based on the trailer.

If he does, most of the audience won't know what he's singing about when he says "Well, I'm not the kind to kiss and tell, But I've been seen with Farrah."

Just change Farrah to Eva. Problem solved.
