Stunt & Action Industry Directory

A practical, unranked guide to the stunt and screen-action world across the UAE and the wider Middle East — the film commissions in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Jordan and Morocco that issue permits and run rebates, the stunt-design and precision-driving teams that crew the region's high-end work, and the schools and driving academies that train the talent. The local stunt bench is still growing, so much high-end work is crewed by international specialists; this maps the organisations that actually operate here.
