Elevating Artistry in Action: Inside “The Fall Guy” Stunts and the Visionaries Behind Them

Discover the thrilling world of stunts in "The Fall Guy," featuring groundbreaking work by pioneers in the industry, in Philippine cinemas starting May 1.

In every action film, breathtaking sequences not only hold the audience’s attention but also highlight the ingenuity and commitment of the stunt team. “The Fall Guy,” directed by former stunt performer David Leitch, showcases this spectacularly, with each stunt echoing the peak of cinematic artistry.

Masterminds Behind the Madness
David Leitch, together with producer Kelly McCormick, set out to create an unparalleled visual experience. By engaging top-tier talent such as Chris O’Hara, who received the pioneering credit of “Stunt Designer,” they’ve redefined roles within the industry. This new title appreciates the creative essence of designing high-octane scenes, a testament to the strategic ingenuity behind each sequence.

Kelly McCormick notes, “If widely utilized, it may lead to greater overall recognition of the artistic contributions the stunt community provides our industry.”

Spotlight on Diversity and Skill
The team’s diversity is its strength, with Jojo Eusebio, a part-Filipino fight coordinator, bringing his rich experience from projects like “John Wick” to ensure the stunts resonate with authenticity and precision. Eusebio expressed his reverence for his mentors, Leitch and O’Hara, and the profound impact of their guidance on his career.

The High Fall From Helicopter: Troy Brown’s record-setting 150-foot fall from a helicopter into a meticulously sourced high-rated airbag showcased extreme dedication and skill, reflecting the movie’s ethos.

“In ‘The Fall Guy,’ Ryan Gosling’s character, Colt Seavers, exemplifies the unsung heroes of cinema — the stunt performers. From breathtaking falls to explosive crashes, they ensure the magic of movies impacts every viewer, all while weaving through a gripping narrative about a stuntman tackling life’s stunts,” McCormick adds.
