Episode 1: Noon Orsatti
Premieres March 12
For our pilot episode we have one of the industry’s top stunt coordinators, Noon Orsatti. Noon is what is know as stunt royalty because he is a third generational stunt man. He tells of his grandfather working with the iconic Buster Keaton. Then he shares what it was like coming up in the business and working with his dad and other stunt legends on many of the big action movies and TV shows through the 80’s and 90’s and some jaw dropping stories from behind the scenes, as well as his rise to being one of the top stunt coordinators.
Noon also shares his deeply personal struggle along his path from a Jehovah’s Witness to Eastern philosophy and the things that were instrumental on this spiritual journey.
