The Nice Guys

The buddy cop comedy that deserved a second case!

In The Nice Guys, director Shane Black pairs Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe as an unlikely detective duo; Holland March, a bumbling private eye, and Jackson Healy, a rough-around-the-edges enforcer.

Set in 1970s Los Angeles, they team up to investigate the disappearance of a young woman, uncovering a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power.

The 2016 film’s sharp wit and the chemistry between its leads earned it critical acclaim and a devoted fanbase, but despite its success, a sequel remains unlikely.

Gosling noted: “So much of a sequel, I think, is decided by the opening weekend of a movie, and we opened up against Angry Birds. So Angry Birds just, just destroyed us. Angry Birds got a sequel.”
