Netflix has just dropped a thrilling action film featuring two of Hollywood’s biggest stars that you simply cannot afford to miss.
Both leading actors are set to appear in some of the most eagerly awaited films of 2026, whilst the director ranks among the most influential action filmmakers of recent times.
The Fall Guy stars Ryan Gosling as stunt performer Colt Seavers, who reluctantly agrees to make a comeback following a life-threatening injury when his former girlfriend Jody Moreno (portrayed by Emily Blunt) secures her first role as director of a major studio production.
However, the duo soon become entangled in an intricate conspiracy when the film’s leading actor, Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), vanishes.
