Valerie revealed that she had to audition for the stand-in job. “And yes, I auditioned. We were three at the final audition as stand-in for Rachel. They wanted someone with similar height, built, and skin tone, who can follow instructions well.” she said.

“It’s great to be part of ‘BL.’ [Bourne Legacy] I get to see how they work, Hollywood standards, and talk with the crew about their experience in other films like ‘300,’ ‘Titanic,’ ‘Avengers,’ ‘Spiderman’ etc,” she added.
