The Fall Guys

In the glittering yet cut‑throat world of Hollywood stunt work, a chance encounter on a night meant for celebration turns into a reckless plunge toward something far larger than a simple party. Three college friends, tied together by loyalty and the wild optimism of a bachelor weekend, stumble upon a scene that hints at a hidden underworld of danger and temptation. Their sudden brush with the illegal drug trade pulls them into a maze of interrogations, where each man’s past is peeled back layer by layer, revealing how far they’ve strayed from the carefree lives they once imagined.

The story centers on Colt Seavers, a once‑renowned stuntman whose love for cinema is matched only by his reverence for the craft’s history. After a catastrophic accident forces him away from the high‑flyers and into a modest valet job, Colt’s identity is reduced to the bitter nickname “the fall guy.” Yet the pull of the set remains irresistible, and an unexpected call from producer Gail Meyer offers him a shot at redemption. Returning to the set, Colt reunites with Jody Moreno, a talented camera operator with directing ambitions, whose presence reignites both professional chemistry and unresolved feelings, setting the tone for a charged, emotionally taut partnership.

Against a backdrop of roaring engines, dazzling pyrotechnics, and the relentless pursuit of the perfect shot, the film balances high‑octane action with a darkly comic edge. The industry’s glimmering façade masks a network of pressure, secrecy, and moral gray areas that test the characters’ resolve. As Colt navigates the blurred line between spectacle and real peril, the audience is invited to wonder how far one will go to reclaim a lost passion when the stakes involve not just personal pride, but the very fabric of the world they thought they owned.
