Courtesy of Angel Studios Scott Waugh thinks about big set pieces differently than other filmmakers.
Waugh began his career as a stunt performer at 12 years old, following in the footsteps of his father, career Hollywood stuntman Fred Waugh. Gaining enough prestige and respect in the industry himself to become the president of the elite organization Stunts Unlimited, Scott retired at 30 in order to direct.
Since then, Scott has helmed several high-profile and high-octane movies, like 2012’s “Act of Valor,” 2014’s “Need for Speed” and 2023’s “Expend4bles,” and wrangled some larger-than-life personalities, like Jason Statham, Sylvester Stallone, Dolph Lundgren, Jackie Chan and John Cena.
