Matt Damon joins Matthew Vaughn action comedy Stuntnuts

Matt Damon is set to make a cameo in Stuntnuts, an action comedy produced by Matthew Vaughn. The film is the first project from UR MARV, a joint venture between Vaughn and soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo, marking Ronaldo’s first movie producing credit.

Directed by Damien Walters, the story follows two stunt performers attempting to save their community gym by working on a massive Hollywood blockbuster. The production features Chris Hemsworth and Sam Rockwell playing heightened versions of themselves. The film’s cast includes professional stunt artists Bobby Holland Hanton, Greg Townley, Paul Lowe, and Haruka Oshima.

During production, stunt performer Greg Townley reportedly suffered a serious injury, breaking his back in three places after a fall. This incident caused a multi-month delay and was subsequently incorporated into the film’s narrative.
