Stuntman (2024) watch online

Stuntman (Chinese: 武替道) is a 2024 Hong Kong action film directed by Albert and Herbert Leung, marking their directorial debut as part of the First Feature Film Initiative. The film stars Terrance Lau, Stephen Tung, Philip Ng, and Cecilia Choi, and examines the stunt industry within Hong Kong action cinema, following a washed-up action director (Tung) as he attempts to make a comeback with the help of a young and passionate stuntman (Lau).

Development of the screenplay began in 2013 but was rejected three times by the First Feature Film Initiative before screenwriter Anastasia Tsang joined the project and rewrote the story. The project was enlisted and greenlit in November 2022, with principal photography taking place in March 2023. This film marks Stephen Tung's return to acting after decades focused on behind-the-scenes work.

The film was released theatrically on 26 September 2024 in Hong Kong. It was nominated for a Golden Horse Award and a Hong Kong Film Award in Best Action Choreography.
