PROFILE

Passionate about practising martial arts and exploring the diversity of fighting styles, Samuel has worked in the screen industry for over twenty years. His credits include Fast & Furious 6, Bourne 5, Spectre and Mission: Impossible 6.

Since 2015, he has worked as a Fight Choreographer and Stunt Coordinator on international productions such as The Princess, Nicky Larson, Furie and Fox Hunt.

In 2020, he began a new chapter in his career, specialising in directing action sequences and taking on the role of Second Unit Action Director on Furies, the prequel to Furie (Netflix).

Driven by a deep love of movement, Samuel is committed to continually refining his style. Working closely with the director, he and his team provide tailored support to each actor throughout the process of creating the action sequences.

His goals: to deliver increasingly sophisticated action sequences that stay true to the director’s vision, and to give actors the freedom to express themselves fully in a safe environment.
