The trailer for The Fall Guy showcases numerous thrilling car chases, but there’s a unique twist to this film. Featuring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt, the movie is helmed by David Leitch, known for his high-octane action films like John Wick and Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw. While the trailer’s adrenaline-pumping scenes hint at a car-centric plot, the movie actually revolves around the behind-the-scenes drama of creating a car film, blending real-world chases with a meta twist about Hollywood stunts.
Director David Leitch, renowned for his action-comedy expertise, collaborates with Gosling, whose comedic talent shines in every role. In The Fall Guy, Gosling portrays a stuntman working on a sci-fi film who also gets entangled in the film’s romantic and action-packed narrative. The film includes futuristic races and impressive stunt sequences, featuring a Hummer EV camera crane and a Dodge Challenger in high-speed scenes, though it cleverly avoids damaging classic vehicles, like the 1981 GMC K-2500 Wideside showcased in the film.
