It was summer 2024 clash of the titans when Barbie and Oppenheimer were scheduled to open on the same day. There were reported overtures from the two producing teams but no one blinked, each film staking its claim on the July 21 release date.

Last year, Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt were part of the theatrical juggernaut event known as Barbenheimer (the organic viral marketing push for “Barbie” and Best Picture winner “Oppenheimer” last summer). Their films opened on the same day, but instead of canceling each other out because there was a push to see the two films, they both turned both into massive box officer earners.
"The Fall Guy" stuntman Logan Holladay shattered a Guinness World Record previously set in 2006 by Adam Kirley in "Casino Royale." Holladay was honored with his official Guinness World Record certificate, presented by Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt during a special screening of the movie on March 13 in Los Angeles. The record broken by Holladay was for most cannon rolls in a car.The previous record stood at seven rolls in the "James Bond" film "Casino Royale." Holladay was able to beat the record with an impressive eight and a half rolls in "The Fall Guy." "The cannon roll, a classic stunt dating back to the early days of cinema, involves fitting a cannon-like apparatus beneath a car that shoots toward the ground," a press release by Universal Pictures explained.
