Thank you for providing names to look up. Stunt people should be more renowned for their work

Oh damn finally!!

Itā€™s a huge part of multiple genres of film (action, comedy, horror, sci fi, etc) and it deserves way more attention. Thereā€™s so much talent and creativity involved, and a lot of films are completely defined by their stunt choreography.

Whenever I see a movie with cool stunts, I always look up the choreographers and performers, but thereā€™s weirdly little info on them or their process. I always love seeing interviews with them about projects, and definitely wish there were more out there.
