Chuck Roberson Movies
Chuck Roberson was a rancher before serving in World War II. Upon his discharge, he sought out film work as a stunt man. While under contract to Republic Pictures, Roberson doubled for
John Wayne in
Wake of the Red Witch (1948). Thereafter, he worked in virtually all of Wayne's films as stunt double, action coordinator, second-unit director and bit actor. His best speaking part was Sheriff Lordin in the Duke's
McClintock (1963). Chuck Roberson's career served as the inspiration for the
Lee Majors TV series The Fall Guy (1981-86). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
