the36thbloggerofshaolin:Hollywood Reporter has a great article on actresses and their stunt doubles here. Scarlett Johansson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Elizabeth Olsen etc. It’s nice to hear from the unsung women behind these ladies’ action sequences.Well worth the read. Lucy Liu’s stunt double all through the 2000s was Michiko Nishiwaki, a bodybuilder and martial artist who in Hong Kong was actually an actress, where she played intimidating henchwomen who never smiled in movies like Magic Cop, My Lucky Stars, and God of Gamblers. Because of her imperfect Cantonese, like Dolph Lundgren and Arnold, they kept her silent and let her physical presence do the work. -- source link
