Ep413 - Sharlene Royer, Stunt Woman ‘X-Men Days of Future Past’ & ‘Star Trek Beyond’

Sharlene Royer got her start as a dancer in Canada when she was discovered for the film, The Adventures of Pluto Nash, as a stand-in for actress Rosario Dawson. The person who discovered her was stunt coordinator Alan Oliney (Mod Squad, Armageddon). In this interview, Sharlene talks about her lists of skillsets as a stunt woman, changes in the industry, the importance of relationships in the business, the importance of rest and boundaries, and why all stunts must be repeatable. This is a special interview associated with my first documentary, Daredevil Society, a series about the history of stunt performers, including everyone from Buster Keaton to Jackie Chan to Zoe Bell to Keanu Reeves.
