‘Tom Cruise has totally changed what’s expected for actors’, says Oscar nominee

Tom Cruise Ethan Hawke

Ethan Hawke stated that Tom Cruise has "totally changed what's expected for actors" by performing his own death-defying stunts.
Hawke expressed concern that this trend makes other actors feel inferior if they choose to use stunt teams.
Cruise is famous for executing dangerous stunts in the Mission: Impossible franchise, including hanging off a plane and holding his breath underwater for over six minutes.
Hawke, who recently received an Oscar nomination, performed his own "human" stunts in his new film, The Weight, which premiered to positive reviews at Sundance.
The Academy is set to introduce a Best Stunt Design category at the Oscars in 2028, acknowledging the importance of stunt work.
