°New enough as of nomination; long enough; hooks ... mostly ... cited. The issue with the first is that both sources say that Curtis will perform her own stunts, or wants to perform her own stunts, so we can't say that she actually did it (prediction is very difficult, especially about the future). ALT1, is cited, however, isn't really interesting to me - a director makes an action film, not really a big deal unless the director is famous for not making action films. In sum, the original hook seems fine, if we can either rephrase it to match the sources, or find a source that says that she did, in fact, perform her own stunts. Image OK, again for original hook. A side note - can't we write something about the plot of the movie? It's not a formal DYK requirement, so won't block the DYK acceptance, but just to me stuck out as a noticeable gap. One of the sources says "zombie apocalypse without monsters," that seems interesting, can we find a source to expand on that? --GRuban (talk) 22:03, 20 August 2017 (UTC)

GRuban, the official synopsis has yet to be covered by any reliable sources; I would have added it right away if this weren't the case. About the hook, would amending "performed her own stunts" into "preferred performing her own stunts" suffice? Btw, thanks for quoting an intellect. :) SLIGHTLY ^mad 17:02, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

It'll do. --GRuban (talk) 03:37, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
