Olaf Wilting is an actor and stunt performer from the Netherlands, currently based in Breda.

His interest in acting started in his teens with school theater and took a professional turn in his twenties while studying. His first job on a movie set was being a background fighter on battlefields belonging to BBC’s The White Queen. Inspiring for sure, igniting an ambition to get to the foreground where the actors and stunt performers were. 

Along the stunt team Vanguard Action Olaf can be seen clashing swords, taking punches and flying through the air blasted away by explosions. He’s experienced in fight choreography, with a specialization in sword fights, wireplay, falling and assisting others to do the same things safely.

Stunt work allowed him to play parts often leading up to the character’s gruesome demise during a gag. Over time he’s accepted roles of a more conventional dramatic nature leading to him currently honing his acting skills at De Nederlandse Acteursschool (translation: The Dutch Acting School).

Beside this his talents as an actor and martial artist are also being put to use in training scenarios for the Dutch armed forces and police.
