VIP Speaker & Special Guest Judge: Peter Pedrero 🎥🤝🥳 🎥🤝🥳
We’re delighted to welcome Peter Pedrero to the 2CIFF judging panel.
Peter is an internationally acclaimed Stunt Coordinator, 2nd Unit Action Director, and performer with a remarkable career spanning nearly 40 years. His journey began at just 14, shooting his own action sequences on a Super 8 camera - the spark that ignited a lifelong passion for filmmaking.
Since then, Peter has built an extraordinary body of work across film and television, contributing to major productions including:
🎬 Harry Potter
🎬 The Bourne Ultimatum
🎬 Game of Thrones (Season IV)
🎬 28 Days Later
🎬 The Hitman’s Bodyguard
His achievements include three Taurus World Stunt Award nominations, multiple Screen Actors Guild Awards, an Emmy, and induction into the Hollywood Stuntmen’s Hall of Fame in 2005 - a testament to his impact on the global stunt community.
Peter’s expertise also extends into high‑profile commercial work, most notably his instrumental role in Volvo’s iconic “Epic Split” campaign featuring Jean‑Claude Van Damme, one of the most celebrated adverts of the decade. He continues to coordinate large‑scale campaigns for leading international brands.
Alongside his work in Hollywood and Europe, Peter has written and directed action sequences for Hindi, Tamil, and Malayalam cinema, further showcasing his versatility and global reach.
Still actively performing, his recent credits include DC’s Clayface, Channel 4’s The Siege, Netflix’s Eloise, and stunt coordination on The Butler and We Came By.
We’re thrilled to have Peter’s insight, creativity, and world‑class experience supporting this year’s 2CIFF as a VIP Speaker and Guest Judge.
