Summary
Devyn Dalton, a stunt performer with dozens of screen credits, was the female double Damon said supplied the standout arms seen in giant Laestrygonian shots in The Odyssey.
Forced-perspective scenes made the giants loom over Odysseus, and Damon said the movie used "almost 100 per cent" of his own arms while still crediting Dalton's work.
Dalton confirmed the role on Instagram, calling it "my honour" to double Damon in Christopher Nolan's epic.
Damon said his own transformation for Odysseus came from a strict diet overhaul, including cutting gluten, to return to his high-school weight of 76 kilograms.
