Being a part of three of the most well-known franchises in the world is proof enough of Matt Smith‘s exceptional acting talent. Whether it was an insane Prince Daemon Targaryen in the Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon, a Marvel villain in Morbius, or a previous Doctor Who, he has seen the best and the worst of it all.

However, an actor is only as good as their stunt double, and Smith had tremendous help from his Daemon Targaryen stunt double Eduardo Gago.
