Paul continues to train extensively in martial arts, stunt work, and choreography, in addition to film and television performance. He has since performed in numerous feature films, streamer features, TV series, and streamer series alike, all of which validate the many facets of his expertise. Appearances in many of these fan favorites lead to his most anticipated role-to-date, Scrimshaw Sam in the upcoming feature film Peter Pan & Wendy. In addition to the impeccable work ethic and athleticism that he devotes to every project, Paul demonstrates the creative talent and experience of a professional stunt actor of over 15 years in the industry.
