The 87North principals — and real-life married couple — reveal how they landed a new director just eight weeks before production on the Bob Odenkirk sequel and discuss how 'Fall Guy' helped push the stunt Oscar over the finish line.

In just six years, including five of the film industry’s most challenging periods, powerhouse filmmakers David Leitch and, Kelly McCormick have founded and grown 87North Productions, making it a formidable force in Hollywood and beyond.

Anchored in the action genre, the production and action design company’s catalog includes the third and fourth John Wick movies, Bullet Train, Violent Night, The Fall Guy, Nobody, and now its sequel.

"When we're in love with something like Nobody, and we get a green light on it, it's hard to say no," admits producer David Leitch as we chat over Zoom just days ahead of action sequel Nobody 2 landing in theaters. "Those green lights are hard to come by, and they're getting harder and harder, so we've been fortunate that we are in demand and we're taking advantage of that."

Pittsburgh is no stranger to playing the backdrop for Hollywood films.

“The Dark Knight Rises,” “Flashdance” and “Sudden Death” are a few of the many movies that bring the Steel City onto the silver screen.

Now, Downtown Pittsburgh has transformed into a movie set yet again, this time for director David Leitch’s “How to Rob a Bank.” The Amazon MGM Studios film — expected to release Labor Day weekend 2026, according to Deadline — stars Nicholas Hoult, Zoë Kravitz and Pete Davidson.

From ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’ to ‘Mission: Impossible,’ these are the fights, shootouts, car chases, and aerial maneuvers that vaulted action cinema to new heights—as told by the people who made them.

Christmas came early at FanX's Tampa Bay Comic-Con, where David Harbour confirmed that Violent Night 2, the blood-soaked holiday sequel, is officially heading into production in just four weeks. While speaking on stage during a joint panel hosted by Collider's Maggie Lovitt, with Stranger Things co-star Matthew Modine, Harbour offered a clear timeline: “I'm doing the sequel to Violent Night in four weeks,” he told the crowd, eliciting cheers from fans of his gruff, beer-swilling, hammer-swinging Santa Claus.

A year-by-year "what if" filling in a century-long gap of Academy Awards recognition for noteworthy stunt artistry and design in Hollywood movies.

Tommy Wirkola is back in the sleigh for Violent Night 2, the sequel to its Christmas-themed action movie released in 2022, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter.

The Worst Man, an action comedy spec from Matt Altman (Red Widow) and Dave Matalon (Totally Killer), has landed at Universal Pictures, with 87North set to produce.
