Biography

Garreth Hadfield was born on Friday 18 June 1982 at 2:17pm in Moree NSW Australia. He weighed in at 11.2 pounds and measured 23 inches long. The nurses at Moree hospital referred to him as 'The Elephant Baby' but this didn't stop parents Mike and Kim from loving him anyway. Garreth's exposure to stunts began at a young age when Kim would sit him too close to the heater and from time to time drop an iron onto his head. Fast forward through the typical life of a child growing up in the Hunter Valley of NSW, Newcastle and then Brisbane, Garreth has grown into a generic looking male of average height and appearance. His skill set for stunt work is broad but not of a high level. Let's just say it's "good enough to get by". Since starting out at Warner Bros. Movie World (Gold Coast) from 2010-2012 Garreth has managed to eke out a living for himself performing stunt work in anything ranging from live shows to feature films. Due to his average looks and sub-par skill level he blends in to any character well, from doubling lead actors to playing the ND guy in the BG, he can do it all! Working on major film productions and sharing scenes with some of Hollywoods most acclaimed actors has been a huge achievement for Garreth but he admits it's all been for one reason, "to one day be mentioned in the same sentence as Daniel Day Lewis" ..... hang on a second, did that just happen?
