Stunt stunts or superhero battles—that's the life of young Thekla Hutyrová, who lives in California but has her roots in Prague. Thekla is a Hollywood actress and stunt double. She worked on films such as Logan: Wolverine, Alita: Battle Angel, and the well-known Marvel movie Deadpool 2.

Born in Seattle and grew up in Arizona from the age of two, from childhood, she was a completely different girl from her peers—she was always closer to boys' activities.

She started taekwondo at the age of 11 and won two black belts at the ages of 15 and 17. Later, she started practicing sports karate and XMA (extreme martial arts), in which she managed to win two world titles.

In high school, she felt the desire to be an actress for the first time. She decided to continue her studies at university but did not choose acting. Following the example of her mother, who is a doctor, she preferred the medical field—psychology. However, she continued to practice martial arts as an adult, practicing sports such as jujutsu and boxing.

Thekla landed her first Hollywood role while attending a martial arts school owned by Michael Chaturantabut, also known as Mike Chat, who played one of the Power Rangers.

The first stunt role she got at the age of 23 was for the movie Logan: Wolverine.

She also collaborated on the popular Marvel movie Deadpool 2 and also worked on other films and series. Among the most famous ones in Slovakia is, for example, the film Bl<0xC6><0x9B>enec (originally Gemini Man) with Will Smith.

As a professional doubler, she teaches her fighting skills and tricks in her spare time to other doublers or directly to film and TV series actors who are interested in it.

Although she has a successful career as a film double, she plans to venture into another industry as well. "I am currently studying business. I want to start my own clothing brand. It should be more natural and sustainable for the planet. I hope that I will succeed in 2022," she revealed.

Hollywood glitter has its charm, but Thekla is tempted to taste life in Slovakia for some time.
