The Fall Guy Afdah movies originated on TV through the series created by Glen Larson, airing from 1981 to 1986 and known in Italy as Profession Danger. David Leitch drew inspiration from this for his unique score, working alongside Drew Pearce on the script. The original series followed stuntmen doubling as bounty hunters, but now the focus shifts to the production of a peculiar western-sci-fi film.
