The highly anticipated Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt action-comedy film The Fall Guy has finally landed on streaming and, alongside the theatrical version, a newly released extended cut is also available, which includes 20 minutes of never-seen-before footage.

Loosely based on the 1981 TV series of the same name starring American action icon Lee Majors, the movie features Gosling as Colt Seavers, a well-worn stuntman who is still reeling from a career-ending accident and relationship woes.

When his ex-girlfriend-turned-first-time-director Jodie (Blunt) runs into some trouble on the set of her debut feature, Seavers springs into action to try and save the movie and their relationship in the process – but things don’t quite go to plan.

While the box office performance of The Fall Guy was underwhelming, with the film amassing a mere $28.5 million from 4,002 North American venues in its debut, as Variety reported, the movie impressed critics worldwide, which could well translate to streaming numbers.

So, how can fans stream the film? Read on for everything you need to know.

With the film getting a physical release on 5th August in the UK, it could come to streaming on our shores at some point in September, but that's just speculation at this point and fans will have to wait and see.
