| Paul Andreovski was born on the 24th of February 1968 in Australia and began his martial arts training at the age of 8. He began his career in stunt work in 1996 when he auditioned for Jackie Chan, who had come to Melbourne, Australia to film Mr. Nice Guy.
He was brought in by fellow Australian Brad Allan when during filming, JC asked Brad if he knew any other local martial artists who (like himself) could handle the Hong Kong style choreography, as the other local stuntmen they already had were struggling. Brad had already been training with Paul and knew he was their man.
Paul passed the audition and the two of them became the first non-Asian "official members" of the Jackie Chan Stunt Team. Paul worked with the team on several movies as a stuntman and in small acting roles, he also worked as Jackie Chan's boxing coach, up until 2004 where he took a break. But he eventually returned for 2010's The Spy Next Door, where he doubled for lead villain Magnús Scheving.
