Recently, Ryan Reynolds shared his opinion about the Oscars and said there should be a stunt category at the ceremony.

Reynolds said, “Stunt work doesn’t have a category at the Oscars, and I hope that’ll change someday.”

He continued, “So many films have smashed it this year. Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd and Chaplin were stunt performers as well as filmmakers. Telling stories with their entire bodies.”

He added, “This D&W stunt team over-delivered. A lot of them are friends I’ve worked with for years, and I’ll spend the rest of my days doodling their names in my Heidi Stationary, dotting all the ‘i’s’ with little hearts. I’ve worked with Alex Kyshkovych since the very first @deadpoolmovie. He not only doubles me — he’s the fight coordinator.”
