David Leitch (/liːtʃ/; born November 16, 1975) is an American filmmaker, stunt performer, coordinator, and actor. He made his directorial debut in the action film John Wick(2014) with Chad Stahelski, though only Stahelski was credited. He later also directed the films Atomic Blonde (2017), Deadpool 2(2018), Hobbs & Shaw (2019), Bullet Train(2022), and The Fall Guy (2024). Leitch graduated from the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Arts in International Relations in 1993. Leitch was a stunt double for Brad Pitt five times and twice for Jean-Claude Van Damme Leitch and his crew won two awards for The Bourne Ultimatum at the Screen Actors Guild Awards. He also shared a 2008 Taurus World Stunt Award with fellow stunt person Kai Martin for high work. He wrote and starred in Confessions of an Action Star, a parody of action films and the film industry released in 2009. Leitch and Chad Stahelski opened an action design production company called 87Eleven in 1997. In 2009, Stahelski and Leitch were second-unit directors and stunt coordinators on Ninja Assassin. The two co-directed the 2014 film John Wick, although Leitch himself was not credited as co-director. Leitch executive produced the three John Wick sequels, which Stahelski solo directed. He moved on to direct films such as Atomic Blonde, Deadpool 2 and Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw with his wife and creative partner Kelly McCormick serving as a producer. In 2022, he also directed Pitt in the action-thriller Bullet Train. In September 2020, Leitch signed on to direct and produce the stuntman drama The Fall Guy for Universal Pictures. Drew Pearce wrote the screenplay, and Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt starred. Based on the 1980s television series of the same name, the film was released in the United States on May 3, 2024. In January 2019, Leitch signed on to direct Undying Love, based on the limited comic book series by Tomm Coker and Daniel Freedman, for Studio 8. In July 2022, it was announced that Leitch would direct the television miniseries Hot Air, starring Andrew Garfield as Richard Branson, based on the book Dirty Secrets by Martyn Gregory. In November 2022, Leitch became attached to direct spy thriller Red Shirt, based on a pitch by Simon Kinberg and with Channing Tatum set to star; by the end of the month, the project was picked up by Amazon Studios. Leitch was set to direct the action thriller Fast & Loose for Netflix and STXfilms, with Will Smith set to star, but by March 2022, he left the project to focus instead on The Fall Guy. Leitch was in discussions to direct a new Jurassic Park film scheduled for July 2, 2025, but left the project over creative differences; Gareth Edwards ultimately directed the film. Leitch dated actress Maggie Q from 2009 to 2011. He has been married to executive producer Kelly McCormick since 2014.
