Chad Law

Chad Law grew up in tiny Farmland, Indiana—yeah, it’s really called that—with a camera in his hand and a wild obsession for movies, thanks to his dad dragging him to cult classics like "The Lost Boys" and "Big Trouble in Little China." He and his brother Evan basically turned their house into a low-budget studio, cranking out over 75 homemade flicks—think VHS days, not TikTok videos—where Chad somehow managed to be both the leading man and the director. That Christmas camcorder? Best. Gift. Ever. Honestly, the guy always had stories swirling in his brain, but he didn’t get serious about screenwriting until college. One random night after catching some vampire movie, he gave it a real shot and wrote his first script, "Night Class." It never saw the light of day, but hey, it got the wheels turning. Then came "Daylight’s End," an action-horror mashup that made some noise in the Project Greenlight contest. The thing actually got made years later, with legit stars like Johnny Strong and Lance Henriksen. Chad finally broke through with "Hero Wanted"—Cuba Gooding, Jr., Norman Reedus, Ray Liotta, total heavy hitters. That kicked things into high gear. Suddenly, his name started popping up all over the indie action scene. You see his credits on stuff like "Section Eight," "Shrapnel," "Six Bullets," "Drive Hard," "Beyond The Law," and a ton more, working with everyone from Jean Claude Van Damme to Mickey Rourke. "Black Water" even crushed it in China. The dude’s basically the go-to guy if you want bullets flying and action cranked up to eleven.
