Adkins Adjacent Bonus Episode-Stuntwomen: The Untold Hollywood Story
That takes us to the subject of this first bonus episode: Stuntwomen: The Untold Hollywood Story, released video on demand on September 22, 2020. How is this Adkins adjacent? Well one of the focal points of the movie, and one of the hosts essentially, is Adkins' Accident Man co-star, the absolutely incredible Amy Johnston, and anything I can do to bring more attention to her, I am going to do. So this doc was a no-brainer for me.
