We've been rallying for a Stunts Category at The Oscars by posting this banner (pictured) and others like it since 2017. Men and women stunt actors risk their lives each day on the movie set so that we can enjoy an action-packed and believable seamless continuity film. I know a few stunt players and a good friend who did a wire gag on my set and then got stuck on his motorcycle on his way to another gig. He would be proud and love that LAST WEEK this OSCAR-STUNTS Story came out in Variety. https://variety.com/2023/film/news/oscars-stunt-category-discussed-academy-john-wick-director-1235650105/

I definitely agree that there should be a Stunts Category at The Oscars, Pidge Jobst. Stunts are crucial to movies. I'm glad there's been conversations going on between the Academy and a contingent of stunt coordinators.

I support the addition of a Stunts Category for the Academy Awards. Stunts to me are no different than Special Effects. Except with people. So if there's award for Best Special Effects, than why not for Best Stunt Choreography?
