Incredibly grateful to sit down with actor and contortionist Samantha Rodes for this compelling and insightful interview.

Samantha Rodes is a versatile actor with extensive experience in creature and prosthetic performance, contortion, yoga, and motion capture. She has worked alongside many acclaimed artists, both under layers of prosthetics and suited up for motion capture, including Academy Award-winning director Guillermo Del Toro in Nightmare Alley and visionary director Zack Snyder in Rebel Moon.

Beyond the screen, she can be seen swimming, modeling, child stunt doubling, and writing , even having been a ghost writer in the health and fitness industry. With her passion and commitment, she is willing to go the extra mile, from shaving her head to changing her appearance altogether. A true monster-lover at heart, she takes inspiration from iconic performers like Lon Chaney and animals both real and imagined.
