If La La Land and The Fabelmans are love letters to “cinema,” then consider The Fall Guy a love letter to stunt performers. In the action-comedy, Ryan Gosling plays the titular “guy ”who “falls,” performing stunts for a movie-within-the-movie directed by his crush, played by Emily Blunt.
But IRL, Blunt has done more stunts than Gosling, leading to her nickname, “Stunty Blunty.”

Gosling revealed the sobriquet during an interview with Today, where he and his co-star also shared whether or not their kids would be seeing the film. Both Gosling and Blunt have two daughters apiece with their respective spouses (Eva Mendes and John Krasinski, respectively), and the way the actors describe it, none of their kids are all that interested in seeing what mom and dad do for work.
Blunt’s girls like Gosling insofar as he is Ken to them, while Gosling’s kids just know Blunt as Mary Poppins.
