Article Summary

  • Universal unveils behind-the-scenes featurette showcasing The Fall Guy's stunt team.
  • Ryan Reynolds performs his own stunts, with spotlights on the specialty stunt crew.
  • The featurette emphasizes respect for stunt performers and their cinematic contributions.
  • Directed by David Leitch, The Fall Guy celebrates the unseen heroes of action cinema.

The Fall Guy is a movie all about stunt performers and is directed by a former stunt performer, so it's not surprising that they are making sure we all know about the team who are making this movie possible. Not only did they take the time to highlight the stunt team for the film in a featurette, but they also took the time to say their names and what aspects of the stunts they are specializing in. We also learned what stunts star Ryan Reynolds did himself, which was cool to see. Stunt performers have gotten the short end of the stick in terms of respect for a long time, and it's really cool to see this movie taking the time to highlight these men.
