Ep439 - Cheryl Lewis, Stunts ‘I Am Legend,’ ‘Wonder Woman 1984,’ & ‘Captain America Civil War’

Cheryl Lewis is a unique, multi-discipline performer on the stage and screen, member of SAG-AFTRA/AEA/AGVA/AGMA. She is a stunt performer, martial artist, fight choreographer, action designer, actor, dancer, circus aerialist, and puppeteer. In this interview, Cheryl Lewis talks about the difference between a stunt performer and a daredevil, how she actually instructs people to get hit by cars, the problem with diversity within stunts and stunt coordinating, and how to break into the industry today. 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.
