The Fall Guy has landed in home theaters. Loosely based on the ’80s TV series and starring Ryan Gosling (Barbie) in the title role opposite Emily Blunt (Oppenheimer), the stunt-heavy, action-packed romcom from director David Leitch (Deadpool 2, Bullet Train) and writer Drew Pearce (Iron Man 3, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw) has grossed $128 million at the global box office since it hit theaters May 3. Just 18 days later — per Universal’s 2020 deal with theaters to send new movies to premium video-on-demand platforms only if they earn less than $50 million in opening weekend — The Fall Guy is available to watch at home.
