Chris Denison is a stunt performer and coordinator.

Denison grew up in the mountains in Colorado, engaging in outdoor and physical activities from a young age, including motocross, snowboarding, and off-road racing. He competed professionally in freestyle motocross as a teenager, achieving a top-15 ranking in the International Freestyle Motocross Association circuit before transitioning to other forms of racing and later into the film stunt business.

Around 2009, Denison began gaining formal entry into stunt work through mentorship with industry professionals like Gary Hymes. He obtained his Screen Actors Guild (SAG) card in 2010, marking a milestone in his professional stunt career.

Denison has worked in a variety of stunt roles—performer, stunt double, driver, coordinator—and in different environments, including underwater work. He also has training in disciplines outside traditional stunt performing, such as freediving, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Krav Maga, and other combat and safety skills. In Avatar: The Way of Water (2022), he served as a stunt double for Sam Worthington. In Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022), he was credited as a stunt coordinator.

At the 29th Screen Actors Guild Awards, the stunt ensemble for Avatar: The Way of Water (2022) was nominated for Outstanding Action Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Motion Picture, and Denison was among those so nominated. He also shared in the same recognition for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022). In addition, he was part of the stunt ensemble nominated for the same category at the 24th Screen Actors Guild Awards for Logan (2017).
