The Plot Of The Fall Guy And The Role Of Emily Blunt

Now, no details have been revealed on the plot of the film, nor the role that will play Emily Blunt. The series, on which The Fall Guy is based, tells the adventures of two stuntmen, Colt Seavers and Howie Munson, who work a second job as bounty hunters. The two use their physical skills and knowledge of stunts (involving cars or his GMC off-road vehicle) to catch fugitives and criminals. Flanking them, the blonde and energetic Jody Banks. It is more than likely that Blunt can cover the latter character. The screenplay for the film was written by Drew Pearce, writer of Fast & Furious Presents Hobbs & Shaw. The Fall Guy is a Universal production and stars David Leitch, Kelly McCormick, Ryan Gosling and Guymon Casady as producers. Production Executive Vice President Matt Reilly will oversee the project on behalf of Universal.
