  1. A first

    Terry Notary worked as the movement coach for the Na'vi in Avatar, which was the first motion capture film he made.

  2. First role

    Notary's first stunt movement coaching job came on Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Ron Howard, the director, was bringing in Cirque gymnasts, and Notary so impressed him that he was given the task of teaching every actor how to move.

  3. Getting ready for a role

    Notary moved into this new line of work with Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes. To get ready for that film, he went to the Los Angeles Zoo and watched how apes move.

  4. Big break

    Ruben Östlund, a Swedish director, found Notary through a Google search for "actor imitating monkey" and watched a performance Notary had given for a Planet of the Apes audition. Östlund then hired him for Oleg, an ape-like character, in his Palme d'Or-winning 2017 film The Square.

  5. A change of course

    Before he became an actor, Terry Notary worked as a performer with Cirque du Soleil, which was his first career.
