The stunt double comedy starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt was supposed to be one of the biggest spring hits in cinemas. Instead, it flopped. Universal Pictures is so disappointed with the film’s outcome that it released the movie on VOD less than three weeks after its theatrical debut.
In its opening weekend, The Fall Guy made $28 million in the US, when it was initially expected to make around $40 million. So far, it has grossed over $127 million worldwide.
Regardless, critic reviews are generally favourable, so you shouldn’t miss out on this action-packed romantic comedy. Find out how you can watch The Fall Guy in the UK and US, both now and in the future.

When will The Fall Guy be released on VOD?
In the US, the comedy with Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt is now available on platforms like Prime Video, Apple TV and VUDU.
You can either rent the film for $19.99 or buy it for $24.99.
Thus, The Fall Guy shares the fate of another Universal Pictures flop, The Last Voyage of the Demeter, which dropped on VOD three weeks after its theatrical release.
In the US, the movie hit digital on 21 May 2024. It’s unknown when The Fall Guy will appear on VOD in the UK – we’ll update this article when we learn more.

When could The Fall Guy be released on DVD/Blu-ray?
Typically, physical copies of Universal Pictures’ films can be purchased a month or two after release on VOD.
Based on the VOD premiere date, The Fall Guy may drop on DVD and Blu-ray in June or July 2024.
When could The Fall Guy be released on streaming services?
Many Universal’s films hit streaming about a month or a month and a half after their release on DVD and Blu-ray. A significant exception, however, was the aforementioned The Last Voyage of the Demeter, which became available for streaming four months after the release of physical copies.
As with most Universal films, The Fall Guy will surely be released on Peacock. We estimate that it may happen in late July/early August 2024.
That date is for the US – it’s harder to know when Fall Guy will arrive on streaming platforms in the UK. If it follows the same pattern as the Mario movie, it’s likely to arrive on Sky Cinema and Now TV, but this isn’t confirmed.
