Ryan Gosling stars as Colt Seavers, a battle-scarred stuntman who, having left the business a year earlier to focus on both his physical and mental health, is drafted back into service when the star of a mega-budget studio movie - being directed by his ex, Jody Moreno, played by Emily Blunt - goes missing. While the film's ruthless producer manoeuvres to keep the disappearance of star Tom Ryder a secret from the studio and the media, Colt performs the film's most outrageous stunts while trying - with limited success - to charm his way back into Jody's good graces. But as the mystery around the missing star deepens, Colt will soon find himself ensnared in a sinister, criminal plot that will push him to the edge of a fall far more dangerous than any stunt he's ever performed.
From acclaimed filmmaker and real-life stuntman, David Leitch - the blockbuster director of Atomic Blonde, Deadpool 2, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, and Bullet Train and the producer of John Wick, Nobody, and Violent Night - comes his most personal film yet. A new, hilarious, hard-driving, all-star apex-action thriller and love letter to action movies and the hard-working and under-appreciated crew of people who make them: The Fall Guy.
