I thought Vile was talking about The Witcher.Have you seen Macbeth? It's the same director,and lead actors, it has a good shot of being pretty good.

Cruise would see their 125 and raise them 250.
It's disgraceful that the Academy doesn't have an award for stunt teams. The stunt actors take the majority of the risk, they die, some get severely injured, they get maimed, bruised, battered etc. The planning and execution of a stunt takes skill and know-how and precision. And in return the stunt crews get hardly no recognition for their important hard work and dedication.
I feel like I go on this rant at least 3x a year now. It's ridiculous. I'd imagine the Academy's reasoning is probably that it's not considered a "creative" field, but that's BS. It takes A LOT of creativity, talent and ingenuity to coordinate great stunt sequences. They're probably afraid of losing their "prestige" factor if they're caught giving an Oscar to a silly popcorn flick or something like John Wick. Because giving one to Sam Smith for garbage he scribbled down in 20 minutes - or to Judy Dench for 8-minutes of looking queenly - was totally not embarrassing at all.It's disgraceful that the Academy doesn't have an award for stunt teams.

Case in point. Stunt woman Olivia Jackson injured on the set of Resident Evil : The Final Chapter. Was in a coma for two weeks and eventually had to have her left arm amputated.
