Logan Holladay's Record-Breaking Feats
Holladay, aged 34, boasts an extensive resume in stunt work, having contributed to numerous projects such as Logan, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, and Nope. During the filming of The Fall Guy on the beaches of Australia in 2022, he accomplished an impressive eight-and-a-half roll in a car, as stated in a press release from Universal Pictures.
Holladay's feat of eight and a half cannon rolls has exceeded the previous record set by stuntman Adam Kirley, who achieved seven cannon rolls during the filming of 2006's Casino Royale. "When I learned about 'The Fall Guy' going into production, I knew I had to be part of it," stated Holladay.

Gosling takes the helm in The Fall Guy as stunt expert Colt Seavers, with Blunt portraying Jody Moreno, the director compelled to enlist his services. As disclosed by Entertainment Weekly in December, the film reunites Gosling with several of his trusted stunt doubles from previous adrenaline-fueled endeavors.
Joining the remarkable stunt team in The Fall Guy are Hannah Waddingham as a movie producer, Winston Duke as a stunt coordinator, Aaron Taylor-Johnson as a confident leading man whose disappearance sets the story in motion, and Stephanie Hsu as his overwhelmed assistant.
