New Poster For Universal's The Fall Guy Is Released
Universal Pictures has released a new poster for David Leitch's The Fall Guy. It stars Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt and will be released on May 3rd.
Article Summary
- Universal Pictures drops a new poster for The Fall Guy starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.
- Oscars triumph for Universal sets the stage for their summer box office bet on The Fall Guy.
- David Leitch, a director with a stuntman past, helms this stunt-centric cinematic adventure.
- The Fall Guy will screen at CinemaCon with Universal aiming for early buzz.
To say that Universal had a good weekend would be the understatement of the century. The Oscars were an all-around win for the studio, with Oppenheimer taking home four of the big awards, so you know they will be riding that high for the rest of the year. Currently, the studio seems to be banking a decent amount of its early summer box office on The Fall Guy. Ryan Gosling might be everyone's favorite actor right now due to everything that happened with Barbie, so the timing worked out well for them, and Emily Blunt is always lovely. However, director David Leitch has been a bit hit or miss with his movies. While this one seems tailor-made for him, he's a former stuntman directing a film about stunt performing with a ton of stunts both within the movie and within the in-universe film as well; there is still the chance this could fall apart. Universal is screening the film early next month at CinemaCon, so the first reactions should be released sooner rather than later. However, for now, we do have a new poster, which is, unfortunately, photoshopped to hell. These two people are lovely, and you don't need to do this much to their faces, we promise.
