And around the time that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 came out, Chris Pratt told a story about doing a stunt for the Marvel movie that ended in him being knocked unconscious.
Stunt people are frequently used on the sets of major action movies, but we hear more and more stories all the time about casts doing their own stuntwork.
Although it’s less fun that it’s generally stunt guys doing all of the cool Deadpool and Hitman’s Bodyguard stuff, it sounds like Ryan Reynolds tried to keep doing stunts as long as he could until his doctor put the kibosh on the practice.
Recently for The Mummy to film that insane plane stunt, not just Tom Cruise but other members of the cast had to do the zero gravity bit in order to get the close-ups.
