Joanna Bennett

Joanna Bennett is an American stunt performer and actress. She began her journey into stunt work through her background in gymnastics, having earned a scholarship to the University of California, Berkeley. Her entry into the industry was facilitated by a casting call for gymnasts to double in the television series Make It or Break It, which ignited her passion for stunt performance. Despite initial challenges in securing consistent work, her perseverance and dedication to mastering various disciplines, including boxing, judo, and jiu-jitsu, propelled her career forward.  Bennett's extensive filmography includes doubling for prominent actresses such as Brie Larson in Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame, Amber Heard and Nicole Kidman in Aquaman, and Gal Gadot in Wonder Woman and Justice League. Her versatility extends to motion capture work, notably for Evangeline Lilly in Ant-Man and the Wasp. In addition to her stunt work, she portrayed the Tusken Warrior in the Disney+ series The Book of Boba Fett.  Her skills have been recognized with several accolades, including the 2019 Taurus World Stunt Award for Best Overall Stunt by a Stunt Woman for her performance in Aquaman. She has also been part of stunt ensembles that received Screen Actors Guild Awards for Outstanding Action Performance in Wonder Woman (2018) and Avengers: Endgame (2020), with additional nominations for her work in Captain America: Civil War, Ant-Man and the Wasp, and The Mandalorian.

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
