The film, called Stuntnuts, is a project by the footballer's production company, UR MARV, which he established alongside Matthew Vaughn, known for directing films such as “Kick-Ass” and “Kingsman”.

Between 10 and 15 November, Cristiano Ronaldo's company will present the film at the American Film Market, where it is expected to be acquired by a distributor.

Film plot

Stuntnuts follows two stuntmen who aim to work on a major Hollywood production in order to save the community gym where they live. What initially appears to be a normal job offer turns into a major problem when filming spirals out of control. Action scenes become increasingly dangerous and clashes of ego emerge between the film's actors and the hired stuntmen, putting the protagonists' original goal (Chris Hemsworth and Matt Damon) at risk.

In addition to the well-known actors joining the cast, the production also features professionals recognised for their work as film stuntmen, including Bobby Holland Hanton, who is already accustomed to performing more dangerous scenes for Hemsworth. Greg Towley, Paul Lowe and Haruka Oshima will also be part of Cristiano Ronaldo's film production.

Trilogy

During the presentation of UR MARV in 2025, Cristiano Ronaldo and Matthew Vaughn had already announced the funding and production of two action films, with preparations for a third instalment in the same series already underway.

Interest in cinema

Ronaldo had already shown an interest in the film industry while playing for Juventus in Italy. The footballer expressed an interest in acting in a film once he had left football.

An opportunity reportedly arose for the player in 2025 to appear in Fast & Furious, with Vin Diesel stating that they had prepared a role for Cristiano Ronaldo. He is expected to join the cast of Fast Forever, although this has not been fully confirmed.

It is also unclear how prominent the footballer's role will be in the film, which is due to begin shooting in December 2026.
