What happens

The Fall Guy is a 2024 American action comedy film directed by David Leitch and written by Drew Pearce, loosely based on the 1980s TV series. The film stars Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt. The cast also features Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Hannah Waddingham, Teresa Palmer, Stephanie Hsu, and Winston Duke. The plot follows a stuntman working on his former girlfriend's directorial debut action film, only to find himself involved in a conspiracy surrounding the film's main actor. The Fall Guy premiered at SXSW on March 12, 2024, and it was released in the United States on May 3 by Universal Pictures. The film received generally positive reviews from critics, yet it underperformed at the box office, grossing $181 million worldwide against a $125–150 million production budget and losing the studio around $50 million.
