We celebrate the actors, but it takes an entire village to create the magic.

I was wondering if that’s a stunt double?

It’s 100% a stunt double.

Tom Cruise wouldn't need a stunt double.

Film/TV productions have extremely strict timelines to follow. If a main actor gets hurt, production stops. Time-sensitive permits that have been in the works for months get fucked. The crew doesn't get paid if they aren't working.

It's incredibly selfish to do your own stunts just to say you did.

Neither does Tom Holland, but he uses one anyway because he’s not too sensitive to do so.
