Hollywood is flipping out for a new Oscars category.

The Board of Governors of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which awards the annual Academy Awards, announced April 10 that a new trophy celebrating Achievement in Stunt Design will be handed out to action stunt teams beginning with the organization’s 100th ceremony in 2028.

“Since the early days of cinema, stunt design has been an integral part of filmmaking,” Academy CEO Bill Kramer and Academy President Janet Yang said in the joint statement. “We are proud to honor the innovative work of these technical and creative artists, and we congratulate them for their commitment and dedication in reaching this momentous occasion.”

The stunt category is the newest category addition to the Oscars since last year’s Achievement in Casting, which will award its first prize at next year’s event. The Academy announced that eligibility and voting rules will be unveiled in 2027. 

Following the golden news, many stunt professionals celebrated the Academy’s recognition of their work, including David Leitch, who began his Hollywood career as a stunt performer before becoming a director and producer on films including The Fall Guy and John Wick. (In fact, he and fellow stuntman Chris O’Hara played a major role in creating the new category by making multiple presentations to the Board of Governors ahead of its approval.)
