The @dudewithsign account has been active since October 2019, when it launched with a photo of Jerry Media employee Phillips holding a cardboard sign that read, "Stop 'replying all' to company-wide emails," according to BuzzFeed News. Since then, the account has gained 7.9 million followers and frequently posts photos of Phillips holding signs reading mundane protest phrases.
Other films the account has collaborated with on ads in the last year includes John Cena's Prime Video comedy, Ricky Stanicky, and the animated movie Migration.
Ahead of its release, The Fall Guy has marketed itself by highlighting the work of stunt teams in Hollywood. Gosling and his costar, Emily Blunt, presented stunt performer Logan Holladay with a Guinness World Record for most cannon rolls in a car at a March screening of the film in Los Angeles. The pair also appeared at the 96th Academy Awards together to present a tribute to stunt performers.
In The Fall Guy, which is adapted from the 1980s television series starring Lee Majors, Gosling portrays stunt man Colt Seavers, who is brought on to work on a film directed by Blunt's character, Jody, and is then pulled into a mystery regarding the movie's star (Aaron Taylor-Johnson).
Hannah Waddingham, Winston Duke and Stephanie Hsu also appear in the new movie, which debuts in theaters on May 3.
