Disney has been a pioneer of entertainment robots / animatronics for decades at their Disneyland & Disney world theme parks.

Between you and I , I thinks this is less about stunt doubles and more about creating an animatronic trapeze show as a new draw at their parks. Imagine a robotics Cirque du Soleil.

See from the video below, it's more than a stunt double they're going for
