Aaron Norris was born on November 23, 1951, in Gardena, California. He began his Hollywood journey in the 1970s as a stuntman and martial arts choreographer. He also gained recognition as Chuck Norris’s younger brother and trusted stunt double. In the late 1980s and 1990s, Aaron shifted behind the camera. He directed action films like Delta Force 2, Top Dog and Braddock: Missing in Action III. He served as executive producer and director on Walker, Texas Ranger for eight seasons and produced TV movies in The President’s Man series. He stands about 5 ft 11 in tall and kept a muscular build from decades of stunt work. By March 2026, he will be 74 years old. His estimated net worth ranges from $8 million to $15 million, earned through choreography, directing and producing. Aaron and Chuck Norris share a lifelong bond shaped by family loss and a passion for martial arts.

I no too see how stunt skills alone prepare somebody for directing, e surely need more practical film training or strong industry connections.
