When asked if he did his own stunts on the film, Kumail replied: “Well, I tried.”
“There’s the big scene in the movie where I have to sort of do like 10 different moves and then shoot the bad guy, when I trained, they were like, ‘Just do it one step at a time, because we’ll just do one shot, you set up, do another shot, we’ll string it together,’” he explained.
“And then Chloe [Zhao], the director, on the day was like, ‘This should be one shot, so there’s no edits,’” he continued. “I’m like, ‘Wow, that’s going to look really cool, but now I have to figure out how to do this.’”
Kumail said that the shot involved him sliding under something, telling Ellen, ““And I did it about 30 times. It’s really, like, embarrassing, because there are people just watching you, trying to make their Saturday night, and out of 30 times … the last two I nailed.”
He added, “But then I walked by the same set a couple weeks later and I saw a guy dressed as me doing it again, and I was like, ‘All right, do what you gotta do. Make it look good.’”
