Ryan Reynolds is a man of many talents but he does not perform his own stunts instead he gets this actor to do them for him.

“Do you know who does my stunts”- When Ryan Reynolds Revealed Tom Cruise To Be His Stunt Double

There are few actors in the world that have the versatility that Ryan Reynolds
has. The Canadian-born actor in his three-decade-long career has done everything
from hardcore action to emotional tear-jerkers. And his ability to make
audiences roll on the floor laughing is unparalleled. However, one thing that
the Deadpool actor can not do is his own stunts. But he does get a major
Hollywood star to do them for him, or so he says.



A few years back, while promoting his sci-fi film, Life, Ryan Reynolds sat with
his co-star Jake Gyllenhaal to do an autocomplete interview. In that interview,
Ryan finally revealed the name of the megastar Tom Cruise as his stunt double.


IS TOM CRUISE REALLY A STUNT DOUBLE FOR RYAN REYNOLDS?

Viewers love Ryan for a number of his films, for some he is the king of rom-coms
such as The Proposal
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-it-was-like-the-stars-aligned-when-ryan-reynolds-spoke-about-his-chemistry-with-sandra-bullock-in-the-proposal/],
or for others like us he is the action king of Hollywood with films like The
Adam Project

and Red Notice under his belt. As a result of acting in such high octane film
Ryan needs to complicated stunts that he can not do himself. But no need to
worry apparently Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise does it for him.

While taking the auto-complete interview Jake was asked if he did his own stunts
to which the actor replied a simple “no.” But simplicity eludes our Ryan. As
soon as Jake finished, Ryan popped the question to him asking, “Do you know who
does my stunts?” and quickly Ryan hilariously shared that none other than Tom
Cruise is his stunt double.

Cruise certainly has a reputation for doing extreme stunts all by himself
something even Henry Cavill was surprised by.

However, we doubt he provides his talent to Ryan, who clearly was joking while
giving the interview. Although an exciting thing to note is that Tom was one of
the early choices for The Adam Project and not Ryan Reynolds.
