Biography

James Young is a second unit director, fight coordinator, and stunt coordinator. Young started out on YouTube, doing stunt and fight scenes with only $1000 of a budget. He was lucky enough to work on Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) as the stunt double for Sebastian Stan. Subsequently, he has worked on multiple of Marvel Studios' biggest productions, including Captain America: Civil War (2016), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and Avengers: Endgame (2019). He also helped in the hiring of Tom Holland as the MCU's Spider-Man in his screen test. Post-Endgame, Young has been working alongside directors Joe and Anthony Russo ever since, having worked as a stunt coordinator on Netflix’s The Gray Man (2022) alongside Alex Benevent and The Electric State (2025). He returned to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) as a second unit director on Captain America: Brave New World (2025) and Avengers: Doomsday (2026).
