From 2028, the Oscar will also be awarded to stunt performers
From 2028, at the 100th Academy Awards ceremony, stunt performers will officially compete for an Academy Award. The Academy announced this historic decision to finally recognize the artistic and technical contribution of stunt performers in the film industry. "Since the beginnings of cinema, the work of stunt performers has been an integral part of filmmaking," praised the Academy for their dedication and creativity. Director David Leitch and coordinator Chris O'Hara were among the main advocates of this fight for recognition. Leitch emphasized that stunt performers are of fundamental importance for every film genre and have always been part of Hollywood's identity. Their work was already honored at the 2024 Oscars with a montage that told their story. This new award joins the "Best Casting Direction" award introduced in 2024 and planned for 2026. With this move, the Academy takes a step towards more inclusivity and representation in the film scene.
