T. Ryan Mooney, an accomplished stunt double and performer, has made a name for himself through his exceptional skills and versatility. With a passion for thrilling action, dedication to his craft, and meticulous planning and execution of stunts, Mooney has become an integral part of numerous film and television projects, delivering outstanding performances that captivate audiences. He has received multiple nominations for Outstanding Action Performances by a Stunt Ensemble, including Loki (2022), Ford vs. Ferrari (2020), The Walking Dead (2014 & 2015), and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2009). His focus on safety has earned him respect among his peers and ensured the well-being of the cast and crew during demanding productions. That passion for safety has translated into a series of social media and YouTube videos for non-stunt performers on the importance of safe falling. Our interview starts with one of T’s favorite fight scenes, from Zombieland: Double Tap (2019), where he stunt-doubled Jesse Eisenberg.
