Samuel Jaye Paul is a stunt professional whose film/tv credits span 2 decades. He’s worked as the stunt double for Kevin Hart, Justin Hires, Tyrin Turner and Benji Flores Jr. Jaye was raised in American Samoa and got a good dose of culture shock when his family moved to Virginia. A good friend introduced him to gymnastics in high school and this former fat kid became enthralled in fitness. In the summer of 1999, he saw an ad in the newspaper looking for gymnasts to audition for a stunt show at Six Flags. It was there he learned high falls, stage combat, and stunt driving skills and set his sights on the film industry. He drove across the country to LA in 2006. Since then, he's had the privilege of working on films including Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Black Panther, The Upside, Central Intelligence and Ride Along 2 just to name a few. His thirst for knowledge, growth and creative fulfillment and his tremendous love of storytelling drove him to look beyond stunts. He has eagerly devoured books on filmmaking, screen writing and production, taken a slew of classes covering every aspect of the filmmaking process, and jumped at every opportunity to get behind the camera. Jaye founded It's OK Productions, Inc. in 2018.
