‘The Fall Guy' 2 Hour 30 Minute Extended Cut to Debut on Peacock

July 26, 2024 Jordan Ruimy

Looks like we’re getting “The Fall Guy: The Extended Cut” which is set to stream on Peacock this coming August 30. According to the press release, this latest cut will feature 20+ minutes of additional scenes not included in the theatrical version.

Released in May, “The Fall Guy,” directed by David Leitch, underperformed with a $85M domestic run. Its worldwide tally was around $165M. All of this on a reported budget of $150M. Also, did general audiences even know that “The Fall Guy” was based on a TV show? There’s barely been a lasting fanbase for that Lee Majors starring series, but for some reason Universal decided to commit to shooting a movie version of it.

Variety reported that the film was estimated to lose $60 million in its theatrical run. What I don’t get are their numbers. They claimed that the film needed $275 million-$300 million to turn a profit — its theatrical run is practically over … doesn’t that mean its losses were well over $100M?

So, what gives? Why did ‘Fall Guy’ underperform, even with a decent 6.9/10 on IMDb, 86% audience score on RT and 90% positive on PostTrak? Deadline claimed the film might have been too “inside Hollywood” for audiences. “Why do young people want to see this movie?” said a film finance source to the trade.
