James Cameron and Keanu Reeves Will Appear in a Doc That Explores Relationships Between Actors and Stunt Performers
There’s an interesting new documentary called 2nd Unit: Invisible Action Stars. It comes from Rootbeer Films, and it “explores relationships between actors and stunt performers — a topic at the heart of Quentin Tarantino’s recent Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.”
Joe Mantegna narrates the doc, and it features the likes of James Cameron, Keanu Reeves, Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry. The doc also features Heidi Moneymaker, Jackson Spidell, Jack Gill, JJ Perry, and Jessie Graff as well as Zoe Saldana, Chad Stahelski, Jon Bernthal, Shemar Moore, Joseph Gatt, Mark Dacascos, and Helen Mirren.
Lenny Shapiro, CEO/President of Rootbeer Films, said, “Having produced many action films, it is my great pleasure to showcase the real action stars… the stunt people.”
This is fantastic! I’ve always loved and respected that work that stunt people do, and they don’t get enough credit for putting their lives on the line for the sake of our entertainment. It’s great to see that we will be getting a documentary that puts the spotlight on these individuals.
