The Gray Man Behind the Scenes

The Gray Man is pushing to become the next big action movie franchise so the Russo Brothers and the rest of the stacked cast put their heart and soul into making sure it gets there. Two hundred million dollars goes a long way. Being the most money Netflix has ever invested in a film. With Ryan Gosling leading the helm in his first ever action movie, he blew the Russo's away with his dance choreography training that came in handy for the fight scenes and even made him a more impressive stage combat fighter than Captain America's Chris Evans himself! Most action movies get about four stunt scenes but this one was paired down from the novel's eleven to nine. Nine! That's actually insane. About three quarters of the movie is all action sequences. One hilarious moment was compared to Monty Python she. Director Joe Russo showed Ryan Gosling how a stunt is done by stepping in himself. Did you know this movie had almost no cut scenes? Post-production can't be understated. But the only scene that did have cuts was that hospital scene because they were experimenting with a ton of different stuff. Despite the movie being called The Gray Man, it's chocked full of colour. This was done intentionally to capture the audience's attention but they did use subtle lighting and filmmaking techniques to help the gray man fade into the background just a little bit. All that and more is covered in the video so be sure to check it out!!

It’s finally out! Who’s excited to watch it?! 🍿

[@s0nda]

I have watched it like a hour after release. A really great movie +First

[@samejairfan]

Mere pas iss movie ki Telegram link aa gai hai 720p Hindi dubbed

[@dereksmith6097]

Great action movie. He did a great job.

[@lukeskywalker2703]

I watched the movie. Absolutely like Ryan Gosling...

[@i_love_rescue_animals]

Seen it. LOVE it. DON'T overthink it! Just have fun! Ryan Gosling makes a GREAT action hero! ❤

[@Sophie25781]

Ryan gosling and Chris Evans was the dynamic duo we needed

[@she_who_dares9713]

Forget the critics. This was hella entertaining.

[@i_love_rescue_animals]

Yaaaasss!!!!

[@Melanie100991]

Yessir

[@gigalo9420]

Everybody shitting on this movie but I enjoyed it as well

[@s.l5557]

Yup

[@kklol07]

Yesss

[@Goro69]

the movie was soo cool, full of action and badass characters, funny at some places. Chris Evans was soo good as the bad guy, like a psycho but a very cool one. A sequel is a thing we need

[@kklol07]

Yesss

[@icomment4692]

Chris Evans was such a FUCKING AMAZING BAD GUY.

[@thereader5183]

he reminded me of freddy murcury

[@VincentScales]

I was thinking that, after all his Captain America roles he nailed the whole "bad guy" role!

[@alexpowers5117]

That I’ll do pig that I’ll do was a fun line also we still flirting hé was the best part

[@rachel5399]

You should watch Knives Out. Much better movie with him not being the best of person. Ana is in it, too. Also a much better role for her. More sturdy characters.

[@talipot]

Is it just me or did Evans do a captain America jump to punch kind of move? Also with that "Ken doll" line? Lol

[@levin2k]

He did!

[@alexwong7324]

It's actually a Batroc The Leaper punch.

[@Uyenroi]

I noticed them too

[@j69confessional]

Makes sense. Chris did mention it was a lot of the same stunt team with the Russos!

[@ryanwillis9257]

🤣🤣🤣

[@jvs830]

Loved the movie. I want a prequel on Lloyd Hansens characters life. Reckon it could be hilarious with some really funny scenes in it 🤣

[@gigalo9420]

For never having been in an action movie Ryan gosling did a great fucking job lol

[@Trailermaker615]

The Prague fight specifically was one of my favourite. Like multiple different teams explosions going off everywhere some many things happening at once and Hansen saying (in my opinion )hilarious stuff like how hard is it to shoot a man tied to a chair.

[@poshgeekery3601]

That was my favorite action packed scene too. So many varied emotions from Ryan. It all go so insanely escalated but I loved it.

[@anti-tokeyjudionline801]

I love Ryan Gosling

[@annakaybroderick3688]

it was soo good it was totally theatre worthy

[@stevenethan4638]

The critics say "The Gray Man" is bad - that's how you know it's good

[@wilson7357]

C'est le meilleur film de tout les temps

[@KaySan666]

lol what? who are these critics and who MADE them a critic? oh who cares. I really enjoyed it. Six was a great character and Lloyd Hansen a formidable enemy. I certainly hope there will be a sequel to that movie.

[@DevakiTanguturi]

@@KaySan666 a sequel has been announced today starring Ryan!

[@KaySan666]

@@DevakiTanguturi Great news. Thank you for sharing. Maybe Lloyd Hansen will find his dastardly way into the sequel as well. Who knows. Without spoiling the movie, i do think it was kinda sus how they slowly zoomed in on him at the end.

[@ondrejkarpisek6309]

I'm not a critic and I also agree that the film was bad.

[@lucrum8]

Watched this 7 times now best movie ever Gosling was awesome

[@dibyadevil143]

Chris Evans was not just a bad guy , he was a badass guy .

[@tea_517]

Superb movie..action pack movie..i like gosling’s approach..

[@karthikvlogsreactions4126]

Indians loved when Dhanush came ❤😍😍

[@allthatihave14]

Dude I was actually surprised how good this was

[@Kalvinalam]

I am worried that no one is talking about Dhanush's action ... Not only because they don't him much... the thing is he is just a side character and didn't get much scenes to prove him... And also the posters with Dhanush... is also just get the big Indian market to watch the movie and increase their revenue....

[@cally0553]

I can sense more of him should there be a sequel. The Gray Man is too lit to be left behind.

[@csachairman754]

There will be a spin off with dhanush lead

[@Stichwraith]

Don't him? You mean don't want him?

[@Stichwraith]

It's not only they all hate him they all don't actually know who is he

[@s0nda]

One of the best action movies I have watched

[@chibbylal7081]

Wow amazing very entertaining I literally did not want it to end

[@octopi6462]

This was perhaps the most entertaining movie of the year. Don't listen to the critics

[@shenellamarks8497]

My family and I loved this movie.

[@pduidesign]

I thought it was a 10 out of 10 and want a sequel to find out who the old man is!!

[@gekkehenk1673]

sequel got announced today, just as a spin off around idk who

[@pduidesign]

@@gekkehenk1673 bummer. I want to find out who the old man is.

[@kattlovejeon]

Loved it. Bad ass non stop action. Will have to watch it again.

[@cally0553]

I HAVE WATCHED THIS MOVIE 4 TIMES WITHIN A WEEK. Damn man. TOO LIT

[@ericcameron6007]

Ana de Armas needs to have an action series of her own. She's a complete badass!!! I hear that she's been tapped to star in the "John Wick" spinoff "Ballerina". Is this true? I sincerely hope so!!

[@nnamdiejiofor3985]

Me and my wife watched it. She doesn't normally watch but she loved it and I did too. We just didn't like the way it ended. We actually wanted more than just the ending... Hope it's setting us up for Part 2... It looks like an infinity war ending but what do you expect from Joe and Tony? Amazing.

[@gonshocks]

Injuries? What injuries? Just another Thursday.

[@lordvenjix3757]

Amazing video 👌

[@micheledeanda4854]

Loved it!

[@aliennetwork08]

Such a great movie loved it

[@kayelimenzon5852]

Loved the movie, i watched it twice. Another action star was born.

[@mkingir]

Loved the movie from first to the last moment

[@gracielagherbaz4392]

MUY BUENA PELICULA ...MUCHA ACCION.....NO PUEDO CREER COMO ESTE ACTOR GOSLING ....PUEDE CAMBIAR TANTOS PERSONAJES....DISTINTOS COMO LOS INTERPRETA TAN BIEN....NO LO PUEDO ENTENDER...PASA DE ROMANTICO A VILLANO.....CON UN PROFESIONALISMO INCREIBLE ....BUENOS ACTORES...Y MUCHA ACCION!!!! SUPER!

[@jordangrey8334]

Ryan did really good .About Chris ,we don't even need to talk .

[@Pawpaw71]

Just finished watching the movie. Non stop action. Best scene would be when they attacked the square.

[@bartimois2584]

grayman was awesome, some action scenes had to many cuts though

[@fxlegacy7085]

No cap, its amazing

[@foreverkurome]

Usually watch anime, this didn't disappoint. Amazing movie. I really liked how nobody was entirely good or entirely bad but each had both good and bad to them.

[@skruven77]

Awsome movie. Ryan is badass✌🏼😎

[@michelledelacruz418]

this movie got me speechless.

[@catiareis5091]

Amazing movie!!!

[@tillakiz]

I barely believed that the tram driver in Prague would go empty first, and second, never stop and run away once he hears a big mass going on inside the vehicle. That was the plausible part, really. Otherwise, Evans did a great job as a villain, seriously, very convincing. Gosling was not what i would expect as a badass special agent, he simply does not have the typical Hollywood face for this kind of a character. He looked bored all the time to me.. Special thanks for filming in my city. My district even. In famous Hundertwasserhaus. Applause. Austrians rock!

[@carolinefinley5632]

Ive watched the great film 6 times.👍

[@drazellofficial1336]

idk about ppl but the gray man is Great movie. and six character are tbh soo great,

[@dereksmith6097]

Great action movie.

[@audreymabs115]

What a great movie Love it 🔥😍 10/10 for me well done Russo bros 👏💯 #moderepeat

[@ritchersonm.pattersen1702]

Great action movie love it

[@menardmipa7898]

Russo Bros did a good job not only in superhero films but they can direct a decent action films i hope they continue making action. Netflix Extraction is also produced by them

[@benjaminblakemore9704]

BRO I JUST WATCHED THIS MOVIE MATE MOVE OVER TOM CRUISE AND JAMES BOND GOSLING IS A BEAST BRO. BEST MOVIE IVE EVER SEEN PERIOD!!!!;👌🔥😜💪🔥😜💪🥰🥰👏😎😂😊😋❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🧟🧟🤔😗😗😋😀☺️

[@annemacleod1421]

E ought action sequences to exhaust me the viewer…and I watched it on an iPad! Gosling, Evans and Armas are extremely athletic and the humour lightens it. There was definitely a dedication to delivering action plus. 🇳🇿🇳🇿🐑🐑NZ

[@rogue8059]

I don't get what was people's problem with this film. It's a fun action film and it delivered. Like sure it's basic plot but do we no longer get to enjoy fun action movies?

[@PraveenKumar_20]

South Indian actor in Hollywood ❣️❤️

[@thedozeecloset]

Dhanush...😊😊😊

[@cadeevans4623]

Thanks sure will 👍

[@MatthewReimel]

6:57 he’s not wrong about Ana which is one of the best parts about this film.

[@lordvenjix3757]

A non-stop thrill ride from beginning to end, The Gray Man boasts an impressive cast, exciting action, great locations and plenty of cool characters. The Gray Man is a super solid action film that constantly pumps adrenaline into the veins of it’s viewers.

[@kellytina3800]

Just another Thursday.

[@01eceadvaitham76]

Who cares the critics...for me it's was a treat😍😍

[@raja7637]

Dhanush did a fantastic fight scene

[@AKAT1980]

Does anyone know what system Ryan used in this movie?

[@killu4372]

action-packed and great fighting choreos, loved the movie👌

[@churchilkumar2249]

Dhanush♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@ondrejkarpisek6309]

#16 - Yes, it was expensive (and the film looks like a 30 million production), but it wasn't shot in Baku, Bangkok, Berlin or Vienna, it was all Prague. The shot from Vienna didn't even have any post-production editing, the film just shows a view of the main train station in Prague, nothing more.

[@robertbuth]

You can tell Chris isn't used to being a villain seeing how he clearly is confused on the definition of one according to him. Granted he did an amazing job with the character and it did surprise me just how good he was, but come on Chris "just being themselves"" does not justify a sociopathic villain. lol

[@sadinahrafael9700]

Ryan looked so yummy in this movie my gawd

[@eun-solkim7080]

Yamato Richelieu Iowa QE class

[@jackwilliamson1929]

It's a great movie Evans is great and should definitely get an Oscar for best supporting actor, I'd have preferred an even more realistic story and action so the chick beating up guys and the Indian guys fighting scenes were a little disappointing but still worth every penny to see it twice and easily the best movie of the last 4 years.

[@nathandust]

I’m a movie buff. This movie is worth at least 3 watches.

[@dereksmith6097]

They said this was his firs action movie. But what about movies like "Only God Forgives?"

[@laiseniaqiritilau8052]

now Chris Evans will be considered a bad guy...from now...dang it

[@captainobvious90]

They need to bring Chris Hemsworth next for the sequel

[@jennygirl6397]

Do you think is gonna be the gray man 2?

[@shebamenon]

Loved the movie

[@darshakmehta6536]

Hospital scene.. Dhanush

[@Ghvchnjo]

[@clichaeyeanneizon425]

fucking love this film

Chris Evans acted so well as lloyed I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THAT HE WAS LLOYED AND I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE RYAN GOSLING WAS SIX LOL
