Jackson Spidell, doublure de Justin Chatwin
Here you can see the job of Jonathan Eusebio (martial
stunts coordinator for Dragonball) on the movie "Never come back", where he was fight and stunts choregraph.
ACTORS PREPARATION
For some scenes, actors and actresses can't have a double. They have to do stunts by themselves. For physical movies like Dragonball,
they hae a preparation. This prep can be few months long. 87eleven
has done this actors prep. 87eleven has already worked on Matrix, 300...Physical prep has to sculpt actors body too, and can be
very intense.
Here a video of the preparation for 300.
STUNTS AND FIGHTS
We don't know a lot of things, just that they will use wires,
like in Matrix or Crouching toger, hidden Dragon, and we know that scenes were intense for actors: wires were difficult for Eriko Tamura, and James Marsters has borken a teeth during a
scene.
Under a video of the wire work on Matrix.
