Ian McKellan Needed A Bit Of Help For Height
Some doubles often get mistaken for the actor or actress themselves. However, that is never the case with Ian McKellan’s. His stunt double Michael Homick, is significantly smaller than him. Meanwhile, his scale double for The Lord of the Rings, Paul Randall, is on the taller side. Size-wise, they are a hobbit, a human, a wizard!
J-Lo’s Double Has Cheekbones That Could Kill
You don’t only see stunt doubles on the big screen and the small screen. Even music videos make use of stand-ins. Jennifer Lopez, for instance, uses a double when they were filming the music video for “Follow the Leader.”
At first glance, you might think that the singer-actress and her stunt double look alike. But upon closer inspection, you’ll notice that it’s actually a male stuntman! Well, he certainly rocked the make-up and the braided hair as much as J.Lo did, so no complaints here.
