Canadian stuntwoman Devyn Dalton has drawn attention after Matt Damon praised her muscular physique while promoting Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, in which she doubled for the actor. Dalton said the recognition was unexpected and hopes it inspires more women to pursue careers in stunt performance and action filmmaking.
Canadian stuntwoman Devyn Dalton has emerged as one of the behind-the-scenes standouts of Christopher Nolan’s blockbuster after serving as Matt Damon’s stunt double and earning praise from the Hollywood star for her muscular physique.
The 35-year-old stunt performer doubled for Damon during a pivotal sequence in which his character, Odysseus, and his men encounter the Laestrygonians, a group of giant armoured cannibals.
To emphasise the enormous scale of the Laestrygonians and make Odysseus and his crew appear much smaller by comparison, the production required stunt performers of short stature. Dalton, who is 4 ft 6 in (137 cm) tall, stepped in for Damon, with her muscular arms helping her convincingly double for the actor, reported.
Dalton has “the greatest arms I’ve ever seen”, Damon told podcaster Josh Horowitz on .
