Did anyone else spot Mike Massa in his brief role?
I wouldn't recognize him if he came up and said "Hi! I'm Mike Massa," but I noticed his name in the credits (for his role, not his stuntwork).
I-I'm just taking things without paying for th... In what twisted dictionary is that stealing?

I was surprised that he wasn't credited under stunts - you'd think if you already have someone that good at it on set, you'd put him to good use aside from a couple minutes of minor supporting role.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Do we have any idea if he wanted to do stunts, and whether or not they had open jobs? That seems to be a way more complicated question than fans have info to answer.

Am I going to hate it until the villain reveal?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I don't think so, Liese.
What's your main concern?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
The potential race issues, I guess?

Oh I have no clue. Mike's just who I think of in terms of premiere male stuntman of the current generation, so it seems a shame.
I did see Zoe Bell's name in the credits, so they definitely had top-notch talent working the stunts.

Liese,
I understand your concern. I do not think your concern on that score is warranted.

Liese, remember that this movie got a lot of money (effectively) from foreign concerns. The thing you are worrying about would have totally obviated that. It's not even teased.
