Paul Weston started his ‘Show Business’ career in the Sixties as a photographic model. He was asked to understudy Roger Moore on the “Saint” TV series, where he also played an acting role performing his own stunt. He was booked as a stuntman on the next episode. And so started his Stunt career. His TV work included classics: “Z Cars”, “Doc Who”, “Blake 7”, “The Prisoner”, “Space 1999”, “The Baron”, “Jason King”, ‘Steed’s’ stunt double on the “Avengers”, “Minder”, “Bergerac”, “The Professionals” and “Remington Steele”.

He worked on the original “Casino Royale”, sang with The Beatles on “Help”, was Directed by (and danced with) Charlie Chaplin on “The Countess from Hong Kong”.

Paul thought he should acquire acting skills, so he joined a drama school for three years and toured the US with 7 plays during the Vietnam riots.  

With two seasons performing in a live stunt show all over Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark, he learnt how to be ‘knocked down’ by a car four times a night, jump a motorbike over cars, perform high falls and, most of all, how to be a ‘Showman’.

“The Dirty Dozen” was his first major feature film; then he was Stunt Flying Double for Christopher Reeves on “Superman” and was Stunt Coordinator on “Superman II and III”. This was followed by “A Bridge Too Far”, “The Lady Vanishes”, “Raiders Of The Lost Ark”, ”American Werewolf in London”, “The Three Musketeers”, “ Smilla’s Sense of Snow”, “Daylight”, “Dragonheart”, “The Count of Monte Cristo”, “Star Wars: Return of the Jedi”. These are among some of the iconic movies Paul has been involve with. He worked on 9 “James Bond” movies as Stuntman and Stunt Actor. On “Moonraker” he doubled for “Jaws” jumping from one cable car to another. As stunt team Supervisor on “Octopussy” he doubled for Roger Moore, running over the train roof of a trail, ducking under bridges and diving over pipes. He also worked with Richard Burton on “Villain”.

His talents are recognized as an all round Stunt Performer, skillful Stunt Coordinator and 2nd unit Director, being able to draw his own action storyboards.

He always enjoys working with friend of thirty years Pierce Brosnan, who he doubled for, and directed 2nd unit, on “Death Train”. Also on “Remington Steele” and a "Coca cola" commercial. He was then once again delighted to become part of the “James Bond” team as Stunt Coordinator on “The Living Daylights” and “A Licence to Kill”.

Working with such talented Director as John Landis on “Spies like us”, Kevin Reynolds on “Robin Hood Princes of Thieves” and James Cameron on “Aliens” gave Paul an insight in how get a ‘Performance’ from actors as well as ‘Action’, which he put to good use when directing actors on many movies including two Bollywood movies in Mumbai.

Paul has had an exciting and varied career, even becoming a song and musical writer in L.A., becoming friends with Sammy Davis Jr, Hugh Hefner and Dionne Warwick.

Has recently worked on the latest “Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens", “Star Wars: Rogue One”, “Star Wars” VIII” and James Bond movies “Skyfall” and “Spectre”.  

He is currently working on “The Mummy” with Tom Cruise.
