The Nice Guys movie billboards...

This Summer are you ready to step back in time to 1970s L.A. in Shane Black's crime-solving buddy comedy movie The Nice Guys.

Ryan Gosling plays a down-on-his-luck private investigator and Russell Crowe plays his hired enforcer working to find a missing girl and investigating the death of a fading porn star, which leads to a deeper criminal conspiracy which reaches the upper echelons of power.

The wonderfully retro and eye-catching cut-out special extension billboard for the crime thriller comedy was first spied along West Hollywood's Sunset Strip on April 16, whilst the standard version was snapped along Fairfax Avenue on April 20, 2016.

The film's tagline says that these Nice Guys are 'not that nice', but we're sure there's more than few fans that would disagree.

If you're an admirer of Ryan Gosling, make sure you check out these movie billboards for The Big Short from last year, The Ides of March movie billboards from 2011 and these Gangster Squad film billboards from 2012.

Meanwhile fans of Russell Crowe can also enjoy the actor in these Noah movie billboards from 2014, Robin Hood movie billboards from 2010 and these Les Misérables movie billboards from 2012.

Let's see if audiences are kind to The Nice Guys when they take to the big screen this May 20, 2016.
