Stuntman (2018)
Segue le vicende dello stuntman Eddie Braun e del tentativo di compiere una delle acrobazie più pericolose. Eddie sta valutando di andare in pensione, ed essendo sopravvissuto a più di trent'anni di terribili incidenti d'auto, esplosioni, cadute e salti mortali, decide di concludere la sua carriera ricreando il famoso salto con razzo dello Snake River Canyon, evento televisivo in cui per poco non perse la vita l'uomo che ha ispirato Eddie a diventare uno stuntman: Evel Knievel.

Production
Initially announced in July 2018 as one of the featured documentaries at the year's Los Angeles Film Festival, the official release date was confirmed later that September. Described as an action movie-documentary, the film portrays the 55-year-old's attempts to complete a stunt that his childhood hero failed.
Johnson stated, “I’ve been lucky to work with some amazing stunt performers over the course of my career, the entire stunt community is the backbone of our business." Garcia stated that the film is "a powerful experience that exposes the level of passion and fearlessness required by these invaluable stunt actors." Endeavor Content handled distribution at the film festival.
In July 2021, following The Walt Disney Company's purchase of world-wide distribution, a new poster was released alongside the debut of the first official trailer. In comparison, Disney's version is concise and streamlined, while also not including the production details of the film as LAFF's did towards the bottom.
