One of the many films to world premiere at this year’s SXSW festival in Austin, Texas, was director David Leitch and producer Kelly McCormick’s The Fall Guy. Starring Barbie’s Oscar nominee, Ryan Gosling, and The Devil Wears Prada’s, Emily Blunt, the film is based on the 1980s American action-adventure ABC-produced television series starring Lee Majors, Douglas Barr, and Heather Thomas and is getting glowing reviews. In Leitch's version, stuntman Colt Seavers (Gosling) attempts to leave his job to prioritize his physical and mental well-being. After a brief hiatus, he is offered the chance to work on a mega-film by his ex-partner (Blunt), who also happens to be the film's director. While Colt is eager to get his movie made, there are some dilemmas that occur - perhaps one that involves a murder cover-up.
During the wide-ranging conversation, Leitch and McCormick shared some great stories about making the film, the amazing practical stunts, what it was like hearing Steven Spielberg loved The Fall Guy, and if they have started thinking about The Fall Guy 2. In addition, they shared updates on Nobody 2, Violent Night 2, Ke Huy Quan’s upcoming action film With Love, Donnie Yen’s Kung Fu, and what else they’re thinking about for future projects.
