“I know this sounds ridiculous, but I’m not much of a fighter,” says Zoe Bell, despite a mountain of evidence suggesting otherwise.

Born and raised on a small island off the coast of New Zealand, Zoe soon moved to the mainland and then to the U.S. where she’s been flying through the air, kicking and punching people, and riding on the tops of cars ever since.

While known for her death-defying stunt work as Lucy Lawless’ double on “Xena: Warrior Princess” and later as Uma Thurman’s in “Kill Bill,” Zoe is now an established actress with roles in Tarantino’s “Death Proof,” and as Bloody Holly in Drew Barrymore’s directorial debut “Whip It” (just released on DVD). Zoe is very down-to-earth in person, someone you could easily spend hours drinking beer and hanging out with.
