Summer may be winding down, but our desire for a healthy dose of action entertainment knows no season. So we couldn't be more excited to watch the Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt starring action romp, The Fall Guy, on streaming this week.
Released in theaters this May, the film is based on the 1980s TV series of the same name. In it, retired Hollywood stuntman Colt Seavers (Gosling) gets pulled back into the job he left behind when the star of his ex-girlfriend Jody Moreno's (Blunt) film goes missing. The Fall Guy also stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Winston Duke, Hannah Waddingham, and Stephanie Hsu. It was directed by David Leitch, a former stuntman himself, who also helmed films like Deadpool 2 and Bullet Train.
“Because this movie was inspired by The Fall Guy the TV show—that ’80s show when I was a kid that sort of lit the fuse for stunt people from my generation—it felt like we should go back and do some old school, practical stunts and really lean in to see if we can do them in a really fresh way, but make sure we’re paying homage to the classics,” Leitch told IndieWire's Filmmaker Toolkit podcast.
Where to stream The Fall Guy
The film will begin streaming exclusively on Peacock on August 30, 2024.
In addition to the theatrical version, an extended cut of the film will also reportedly launch on Peacock on the same day. The Fall Guy: The Extended Cut will feature an additional 20 minutes of material not seen in theaters, including “more action, stunts, romance and more hot bacon!” per NBCUniversal.
The movie is also currently available for rent or purchase through services like Amazon Prime and YouTube.
