Born in New York City to Vietnamese immigrants, Alex Huynh decided at a young age that he wanted to bring people together, entertain audiences, and give back to the world. With a decorated career as a competitive martial artist (three Gold medals on the United States Wushu Team, two world titles and two national titles in the sport Karate tournament circuit) and a Bachelor of Science from Virginia Commonwealth University, Alex broke into the entertainment industry as a Hollywood stuntman.
John Wick 3: Parabellum, Pirates of the Caribbean 3, and numerous Marvel Netflix series (Daredevil, Punisher, Iron Fist, etc.) are just some of the credits which have nurtured his growth in the stunt community. His career evolved as he became a Stunt/Fight Coordinator for projects such as Ode to Joy and the AFC Asian Cup Qatar commercial.
Alex continued to study acting at the Aaron Speiser Acting Studio in Los Angeles before returning to New York City. Whether it's dangling above the jungles of Vietnam in Peter Farrelly’s The Greatest Beer Run Ever, challenging the laws of science in National Geographic Channel's Fight Science, road raging in LA traffic with Will Smith in Hancock, saving Priyanka Chopra’s life on ABC's Quantico, or punctuating dozens of action scenes in shows like Starz' Power or CBS’s FBI: Most Wanted, just turn to the screen to catch Alex Huynh in action!
