Stunts in AOTC

I couldn't help but notice that in many of the full body shots of Christopher Lee battling Anakin, Obi-Wan and Yoda that his face was digitally placed onto the body (a stunt double?). Surprisingly it looks as though Mr. Lee did do all of his stunts, so kudos to him for doing that at 80 yrs old. I'm sure they were all impressed by him.

HE DID HIS OWN STUNTS.

Yes he did most of the stunts. I've heard he didn't do the backflips, because at 80 years of age he can only do the forwardflips. :1devil:

What an amazing man and, as I've said before, an inspiration for we middle aged fans.

Fencing at 80? He's proven it can be done. Riding a space scooter at 80? No problem. Lightning bolts from your fingertips at 80? Mr. Lee just asks if you would prefer blue ones or green ones! Slicing and dicing two younger Jedi who's combined age is half his own? Yep, it must be good to be the KING. The King of Film is the Mighty Christopher Lee! Have MERCY!
