About Erol
Erol’s journey began with a passion for martial arts and action cinema, fueled by the discipline to turn that passion into a career. Over the past 28+ years, he has been proud to contribute to some of the most iconic action sequences in modern film and television.
From the intensity of The Batman and No Time to Die to the gritty choreography of Gangs of London and Trainspotting 2, Erol has stood on both sides of the lens - as a stunt performer, fight coordinator, actor, and dedicated safety guardian.
His training as an instructor at the Action Academy and his extensive experience with weaponry and combat styles ensure that the action he choreographs is not only visually impressive but technically precise and safe.
Working as a firefighter for 25 years taught Erol more than just technical safety - it instilled an intuitive ability to identify hazards before they manifest, remain calm under extreme pressure, and manage complex, multi-person emergency scenarios.
Today, he brings that same disciplined, mission-critical mindset to every set he steps onto. Whether it’s coordinating a complex fight sequence or providing specialised safety oversight, his goal is the same: to protect your cast and crew so you can focus entirely on the creative vision.
Erol doesn't just design fights; he builds them within a framework of rigorous safety protocols. He understands the pace of a film set. He's here to help you get the take you need, safely, on time, and on budget.
Erol's work has taken him across the globe, collaborating with some of the industry's most visionary directors.

While action choreography and set safety demand intense focus, life away from work is all about family, food, and staying active.
Coming from a large Cypriot family, his passion for cooking is in his blood - something he proudly inherited from his father. Erol could talk about food all day, and spending time in the kitchen brings him hours of relaxation and satisfaction. His son is turning out to be quite the chef himself; he recently made homemade stuffed ravioli, which was seriously impressive.
When Erol isn't in the kitchen or on set, you’ll usually find him hiking or on two wheels. He loves cycling around Kingston and Richmond, making his way along the Thames Path and up through the rolling hills of Richmond Park. More often than not, he'll finish the ride with a good coffee and some people-watching overlooking Hampton Court Palace.
Staying fit is essential for the physical demands of stunt work, so regular gym sessions are a must - the more he eats, the harder he works!
Above all, what he's most proud of is being a dad. Sharing a QPR season ticket and football matchdays with his son is something he will cherish forever. Maybe he will be a stunt performer one day.
