Emily Blunt shares thoughts on the future of Fall Guy
One of these Things we know about The Fall Guy It is based on the classic 80’s TV show of the same name, starring Lee Majors. The series managed to tell quite a few stories during its five-season run on ABC. Considering the feature film has a somewhat similar objective, it seems like it could make a sequel that tells stories worthy of the big screen.

We’ll have to see if people like it, you know? I would do a lot of fall guys if I could. It was just so much fun.
She’s definitely right, because if people want sequels they’ll need to show them in theaters. Movies like these certainly don’t come cheap, and Universal Pictures will surely want to see some solid receipts before greenlighting a follow-up. Now it remains to be seen whether the film can finally do well at the box office. However, David Leitch is just as excited as his leading lady.

I hope people want more.
That’s four Lethal weapon Movies (as ranked by us), and they remain relatively popular among action junkies. It’s not easy to make an action saga like Danny Glover and Mel Gibson, who play mismatched police officers. Still, I certainly appreciate David Leitch’s enthusiasm and, as someone eager to see his new movie, I hope he shines a series of films.
