A new generation of stunt performers is stepping into the spotlight ๐ฅ
Filming here at Docklands Studios Melbourne, Hotel Hotel Hotel Hotel is creating opportunities for emerging African-Australian stunt actors, who are doubling for the star, Oscar winner Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out, Judas and the Black Messiah).
They are being trained by Philli Anderson, herself an industry pioneer as one of Australiaโs first female stunt coordinators.
As Philli says: "When Americans (screen producers) come here, the expectation is there`s diversity. But now, even on Australian shows, you can`t have all-white streets. We have to have diversity."
