Kelly McCormick

Kelly McCormick, born smack-dab in the heart of summer—June 30, 1977—calls Lansing, Michigan her hometown. Not exactly the glitziest place, but hey, everyone’s gotta start somewhere, right? She’s one of those behind-the-scenes powerhouses in Hollywood, mostly juggling the chaos as a producer and production manager. Her fingerprints are all over some seriously big movies—like, if you caught the wild ride that was Bullet Train (2022), you’ve already seen what she can pull off. Same deal with Deadpool 2 (2018)—all that mayhem, snark, and explosions? Yeah, Kelly helped wrangle that circus. And don’t forget Atomic Blonde (2017), which, honestly, was just dripping with style and attitude. She’s not just about the work, though. Since August 31, 2014, she’s been married to David Leitch—you know, that director who seems to turn everything he touches into a high-octane action fest. Pretty much a Hollywood power couple, if you ask me. It’s kind of wild thinking about how many blockbusters have her name tucked away in the credits, since producers don’t usually get the spotlight. But Kelly’s definitely carved out her space in the industry, managing to combine business savvy with the sort of creative edge that keeps audiences glued to their seats. She’s got a reputation for pulling together big, complicated productions and making the chaos look easy. If you’re into action flicks, chances are you’ve watched something with her stamp on it—maybe without even realizing. That’s the magic of people like Kelly: making the impossible look effortless, all while staying just out of frame.
