Ryan Gosling staged a massive fight on Jimmy Kimmel, but did not fight Jimmy Kimmel (yet)

Surprising no one, Ryan Gosling’s press tour for The Fall Guy has been an absolute delight. Much like his many appearances promoting Barbie blurred the line between Gosling and Ken, the promo cycle for The Fall Guy has turned the Canadian dreamboat into a one-man hype train for stunts and the people that do them. The latest stop: Late Night with Jimmy Kimmel, where instead of simply walking over to the couch to chat, the actor staged a one-take fight scene through the studio set to Meatloaf’s “I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That).”

It’s a funny bit and an impressive thing to pull together for a late night segment, but funny bits come easy to Gosling, who is no stranger to showstopping numbers. What’s truly impressive is his continued commitment to giving stunt teams their shine, as the gang he fights through in the segment is his stunt team on The Fall Guy — and he ends his interview by bringing the whole four-man team on stage to highlight what each of them do.

Beyond stunt work, the whole interview is a great time — there’s a digression about meeting Burt Reynolds on Gosling’s first movie, who may or may not have been super into the young Ryan Gosling’s mom at the time — and Kimmel and Gosling get to break bottles over each others head, which I understand may be cathartic viewing for some.

The Fall Guy is in theaters Friday, May 3.
