‘The Fall Guy’ postpones theatrical release to May 2024 – Cine3.com

The Fall Guythe director’s new action and adventure project David Leitch (Atomic Blonde, Deaddpool 2, Bullet Train), the screenwriter Drew Pearce (Iron Man 3, Hobbs & Shaw) y Universal Picturesjust announced a change in its release date.

Originally scheduled to be released in theaters on March 1, 2024, Universal has postponed it to May 3, 2024, two months later, on the date that was previously reserved for Deadpool 3 (now out July 26 under the Disney banner) via THR.

If the calendar remains as it is now, the film would mark the official start of summer cinema in 2024.

The film titled in our market as Profession danger, is inspired by the 1980s television series – of which Leitch declares himself a huge fan – although it will have a twist. Unlike the show, the story does not center on a stuntman with a side job as a bounty hunter.

The plot centers on Colt Seavers (Ryan Gosling) a battered and unfashionable stuntman who finds himself back in a movie with star, Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) of whom he was a stuntman a long time ago. The problem, however, is that the star has disappeared. The film’s producer, played by Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso), believes Colt can help find the missing actor. Colt accepts the deal because he needs money and because the director of the film is none other than his ex-girlfriend, Jody Moreno (Emily Blunt), who receives her big opportunity as director of this ridiculous and extravagant science fiction western, and who will not be very happy to see him on the set, after their breakup as a couple.

The rest of the main cast is made up of Stephanie Hsu (Everything Everywhere All at Once) plays the assistant of the film’s star, and Winston Duke (Black Panther: Wakanda Forever) plays Gosling’s best friend.

Kelly McCormick and Leitch produce with their company 87North, Gosling is another producer, along with Guymon Casady of Entertainment 360. Pearce is the executive producer with Geoff Shaevitz.

SYNOPSIS:
