Ryan Gosling had played a stunt driver in Drive, but now he’s going to be a full-on stuntman in the upcoming action flick The Fall Guy.
The movie is set to hit theaters this May, and we have a new trailer that gives us a great look at the stunts and tells us who’s who in the story. Check this out:
The official description for The Fall Guy goes:
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?
If you’re familiar with director David Leitch’s work, you’ll know that he has a penchant for incredibly stylized action movies, with the story usually taking a back seat (e.g., Bullet Train, Atomic Blonde, Deadpool 2). That being said, Leitch’s films are still incredibly fun and still have some memorable character moments and interactions—top that off with some Ryan Gosling charm and you have an almost guaranteed hit.
Gosling alone attracts a strong following online of people who are ‘literally him.’
After what I thought was a safe performance as Ken in Barbie, I’m excited to watch Gosling go all out with the comedy and action genre. Not to mention Emily Blunt is also a firecracker.
Watch out for The Fall Guy when it comes to cinemas on May 3.
