Chandler Riggs’ Double Is A 33-Year-Old Woman
Stunt doubles aren’t always similar in age or even gender. They just have to look alike when they’re in costume. Chandler Riggs, who plays Carl Grimes on The Walking Dead, has a stunt double who is a 23-year-old woman named Emily Brobst.
Female stunt doubles are common for younger males since most older men are too stocky for young boys who haven’t hit puberty yet.
Stunt doubles aren’t always used just for movies or T.V. Jennifer Lopez had an interesting looking double for a music video.
The Rock’s Stunt Double Is His Cousin
If being friends with your stunt double wasn’t enough, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson took it a step further. The Rock’s double is his cousin, Tanoai Reed.
Reed has been The Rock’s double since 2002 on the set of The Scorpion King. Reed has admitted he likes being his cousin’s stuntman because it keeps him in great physical shape.
