Colt Seavers (Ryan Gosling) has it all: he's the stunt double for the world's greatest movie star Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and has a burgeoning relationship with camera operator Jody Moreno (Emily Blunt). Then a stunt goes wrong, he breaks his back and he's out.
Eighteen months later he reluctantly takes a call from Ryder's Producer (Hannah Waddingham) and she says the only thing that will get him back in the game...
Judy needs him or her first movie as Director is dead.
No good will come of this.
