Last month, Universal threw us all a curveball that had us wondering if we'd accidentally stumbled into a parallel universe where Ryan Gosling is the biggest Swiftie we never knew. In the new trailer for The Fall Guy Gosling's character, Colt Seavers, is sitting in his car, tears streaming down his face, as Taylor Swift's "All Too Well" fills the air. This, apparently, is a sign.
Swift fans everywhere know this feeling all too well (no pun intended), and if you were sitting there thinking, "Please, let there be more of Swift in the movie," then buddy, the universe heard you. David Leitch, the director behind the upcoming film, spilled the beans to Variety and The Hollywood Reporter, hinting that Swift's tunes aren't the only thing we're getting in The Fall Guy.
"I don't want to give it away but there's some Taylor. There's some Taytay. We love Taytay and so does Colt Seavers," Leitch teased in a way that suggests maybe, just maybe, he's got a Swift-themed playlist he's hiding from us.
According to Leitch, it's not just about having Swift's music in the film but about what her music represents. In the THR interview, Leitch gets poetic about it, saying how Swift's tracks encapsulate the romance and the downfall of Gosling and Emily Blunt's characters.
