FAQs

Zoë Bell. As an established and extremely talented stunt double and actress, Zoe Bell has made a name for herself through her unparalleled dedication, skills, and focus. Zoe Bell was born on Waiheke Island, New Zealand, to Tish, a nurse, and Andrew Bell, a doctor. She has a background in gymnastics and martial arts.
Jackie Chan – One of the biggest names in action movies, Jackie Chan is rightly viewed as an icon both in Asian and American cinema. He is famous for always performing his own stunts, sometimes even sustaining grave injuries during filming. It should come as no surprise, then, that his journey began in stunt work.
Body Double for Stunts. When being cast as a stunt double for a specific actor, you must be approximately the same height (you cannot be taller, but you can be slightly shorter), weight and build of the person you are imitating.
Jackie Chan was famous for it, as is Tom Cruise. I heard that Brie Larsen also claimed to do many of her own stunts, although she does have a stunt double. Keanu Reeves does most of his own fight scenes. Watch action movies where they don't cut away from the actor.
