Can YOU guess the film star from their stunt double? Big and small screen actors with their daredevil lookalikes

Stunt doubles are often the un-sung stars of Hollywood as they put their bodies and lives on the line in dangerous situations. 

In January, pregnant Kaley Cuoco’s body double even went to the lengths of sporting a matching prosthetic belly.

However, thanks to the magic of editing, these daredevil doubles go unnoticed.

Putting the spotlight on them for a change, can you guess what star they are for?

Stunt doubles can make anywhere from £8,500 to £216,000 a year, with the average salary at around £38,762.

Only a select few at the very top of the industry earn a six figure annual income. 

Life can also be deeply unglamorous, despite what you might think.

Stunt doubles might be flown to exotic locations, but days can often be long and arduous.

Many of them have to film for 14 hours a days, or even longer, and that’s not including night shifts. 

Also, if you are filming a complex water scene perhaps you may have to spend the entire day submerged in water. 

On top of the uncomfortable filming conditions, preparing for a stunt can take weeks of planning and rehearsing. 

It also takes hours to set up a scene to get the right cars, lighting and equipment.

For Marvel fans, this double superhero suit might be a giveaway, but which actress is the star of the film? 

There is also a great deal of pressure on stunt people to deliver the goods in one take.

On huge set piece film sets with an explosion or chase sequence, stunt doubles don’t have the luxury of having many takes to play with unlike actors in a simple dialogue scene. 

Especially when there is a lot of money being spent on stunts, it can make the environment highly pressurised.  

On top of that, continuing to ask a stunt double to re-shoot a scene can increase the risk factor dramatically.
