Erick Massoto is a Brazilian writer who's always loved film and TV and loves finding connections between them. In Brazil, he's written for media conglomerate Globosat and for Collider he writes news and specializes on controversial topics.

The Big Picture It’s pretty much a given that, in the last few years, David Leitch has become one of the most relevant names when it comes to action cinema. After celebrated titles like John Wick, Deadpool 2 and Bullet Train, the director is following up his winning streak with the Ryan Gosling flick The Fall Guy.

“I'm obviously really passionate about both those things. And you know, kung fu, martial arts is a huge part of my life, has been since I was a kid. I'm a huge fan of Donnie and his work and his films. And so the potential of that is really, really interesting. We're in the development phase with Donnie and it's really exciting, and it just feels like a big international franchise potential with Donnie as Caine.

"Well, you sort of nailed it with Kung Fu because the palate of that world and, you remember, that it’s the epic landscapes and the things that really lend themselves to IMAX are all sort of embedded in the world of Kung Fu from the original. And so that’s something that’s been sort of percolating in our heads. I’m not gonna commit to the IMAX cameras just yet, but it would be an honor always to use them because the format is amazing and 70 millimeter is amazing.

The Fall Guy premieres in theaters on May 3. You can watch the trailer below and look for our full interview with Leitch soon.
