In the fifth episode of The Last of Us, Lindsay Woolsey emerges from a fiery pit and attacks her brother, Tristin, in a mindless frenzy.
Even if she can’t pinpoint herself in the sequence, Lindsay has fond memories of the four-week shoot that took place at the end of April and early May of 2022. On an elaborate set built in a vacant lot beside the Calgary Film Centre in the city’s industrial southeast, the scene reaches a horrifying, nail-biting climax when hordes of the infected come scurrying out of a pit and attack a group of ruthless “rebels” who had ambushed our heroes in the abandoned and soon fiery cul-de-sac.
She was Jaime King’s stunt double in the Alberta-shot Netflix zombie thriller Black Summer and Kate Beckinsale’s stunt double in Guilty Party. In The Last of Us, she appeared in several scenes. In the first episode, she was the stunt double for a neighbour who has to dodge being hit by a car just as the pandemic first strikes. In Episode 3, she is among the group of marauders who invade Bill’s and Frank’s compound.“I got my leg lit on fire, so that was really fun,” she insists.
The chaos in episode five was overseen by Guy Bews, who served as stunt co-ordinator for all nine episodes. Bews, who has stunt doubled for everyone from Adam Sandler to Russell Crowe, stayed behind the scenes for the most part. He performed in one short sequence, doubling for Nick Offerman in the third episode when crashing a pickup truck through the gates of a gas plant.Article content
