A change of course
Principe left Providence for Los Angeles, California hoping to play monsters in films. He named Kane Hodder, Nick Castle and Boris Karloff as his inspiration, then found that stunt performers usually take those monster roles.
First role
Principe had been in Los Angeles for three months and was working in a music store when he spotted a film production crew across the street. A crew member asked if he was a "PA", and Principe, not knowing the term, said yes and began working on the set.
Big break
Principe was cast as ChromeSkull in Laid to Rest after writer-director Robert Green Hall, whom he had met on the set of Robert Englund's Killer Pads, offered him the role at a screening of Wrong Turn 2.
Getting ready for a role
Principe says he bases all of his characters on Roy Batty from Blade Runner. He also drew on Patrick Bateman from American Psycho and Michael Myers from Halloween for his performances.
Own stunts
Principe already held a black belt in kenpo and had fought in mixed martial arts bouts before he began training to work as a stuntman.
Behind the camera
Nick Principe was one of the writers of the script for Johnny & Clyde, a film that came out in 2023.
