Ryan Gosling stars in 'The Fall Guy,' a riveting action thriller directed by David Leitch, hitting theaters on May 3. Join the adrenaline-packed chase as a stuntman embarks on a perilous mission to solve a mystery, perform death-defying stunts, and win back his love.

This May 3rd, the silver screen will ignite with the release of 'The Fall Guy,' a high-octane action thriller that marries breathtaking stunts with a compelling narrative of redemption, love, and mystery. Directed by renowned stuntman-turned-director David Leitch, known for his work on 'Bullet Train' and 'Deadpool 2,' this film is a testament to the unsung heroes of the action genre — the stunt community.

Starring Oscar® nominee Ryan Gosling as Colt Seavers, 'The Fall Guy' dives into the life of a battle-scarred stuntman who's drawn back into the whirlwind world of action cinema. Facing an almost career-ending accident, Seavers is on a mission not just to navigate the most daring stunts but to unravel a mystery that involves a missing movie star, a conspiracy, and a bid to reclaim the love of his life, played by Golden Globe winner Emily Blunt.

The plot thickens as Colt performs jaw-dropping stunts for a mega-budget studio movie, all while attempting to charm his way back into the life of his ex, Jody Moreno (Blunt), the film's director. But as the search for the missing Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) intensifies, Colt finds himself caught in a web of danger that could lead to his most perilous fall yet.

'The Fall Guy' is not just an action-packed thriller; it's a love letter to the action movies and the dedicated crew behind the scenes. With a cast that includes Winston Duke and Stephanie Hsu, alongside Emmy winner Hannah Waddingham, this film promises to deliver not only breathtaking stunts but an emotionally charged storyline that keeps audiences glued to their seats.

From a screenplay by Drew Pearce and produced by a team including Kelly McCormick, David Leitch, and Ryan Gosling, 'The Fall Guy' is set to become this spring's blockbuster hit. Inspired by the 1980s TV series, the film bridges nostalgia with contemporary filmmaking, making it a must-watch for action enthusiasts and cinema lovers alike.
