What Lady Deadpool's Stunt Double Looks Like In Real-Life

As a seasoned gamer and film enthusiast, I must say that the latest addition to the Deadpool universe, Lady Deadpool (voiced by Blake Lively), has truly left me spellbound. Her swagger and attitude are unmatched, making her an intriguing character who holds her own in even the most intense battle scenes.


1) In “Deadpool & Wolverine,” Lady Deadpool (voiced by Blake Lively) confidently enters the scene, accompanied by fellow Deadpool versions. She engages in an intense firefight with the movie’s main characters (Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman), demonstrating her ability to hold her own. Despite the initial intention of killing them, she is persuaded not to and manages to return to her home world without meeting her end. This leaves room for her possible return in a future “Deadpool” film. Her character is intriguing enough to pique interest about what a standalone movie featuring her could be like, as she leads the Deadpool Corps and her life must be one thrilling adventure, filled with action even when she’s not battling another-universe versions of herself.

When I heard Blake Lively’s voice in the Lady Deadpool trailer, I instantly recognized it as hers. But not every scene featuring Lady Deadpool in the movie was acted by her personally. Some of the action sequences were performed by Christiaan Bettridge instead. He might not be a familiar face to us viewers, but he’s put in some serious effort and endured numerous intense action scenes for big-name actors throughout his career. In fact, one actor in particular relies on him as their go-to stunt person.

Christiaan Bettridge has done stunt work for Gal Gadot

2016 saw the beginning of Christiaan Bettridge’s career as a stuntwoman. Her debut was on the SyFy series “Hunters,” and she also showcased her skills in the Netflix-exclusive mermaid series, “Mako Mermaids,” which is part of the “H2O” universe. Later, Bettridge performed stunts for Gal Gadot in the movie “Wonder Woman.” Interestingly, she also stood in for Connie Britton in a different film, but she has since doubled and performed stunts for Gadot in “Justice League,” “Wonder Woman: 1984,” “Red Notice,” and “Heart of Stone.” Notably, she also stood in for other characters like Queen Hippolyta (played by Robin Wright) on various occasions.

In 2020, Betteridge praised Gadot on Instagram, expressing his excitement for the world to witness Gadot’s dedication and hard work. He described her tireless efforts, spending countless hours battling and enduring harnesses, without ever wavering and consistently giving her best. The experience so far has been incredible for him, and he expressed deep gratitude for it and for his role in a job that motivates him daily to learn and grow. Let’s look forward to the future and more extraordinary performances!

Her next project will see her doubling for Uma Thurman

Christiaan Bettridge has been chosen to stand in for Uma Thurman in the upcoming movie “Old Guard 2.” The release of this film, which was held back due to a Netflix leadership shift and the SAG-AFTRA strike, is planned for a later date.

Before seeing Bettridge in action as Lady Deadpool in “Deadpool & Wolverine,” moviegoers can satisfy their curiosity by watching more of her previous agile roles or visiting the cinemas to catch her performances. Alternatively, they can keep updated with Bettridge through her Instagram account once they’ve been left in awe by the film.

At that place, she documents her active lifestyle, including her vegan diet, upcoming wedding, and children. She additionally operates as a personal trainer and shared that she will be providing on-demand workouts and accepting a small number of clients for customized training plans. Anyone keen on getting in shape with the assistance of a stunt woman should stay tuned to her Instagram for its debut.
