Tamas Nadas

Tamas Nadas was born on November 27, 1978 in Budapest, Hungary to Mihaly Nadas and Andrea Margit Nadas (née: Zimmerman). He is an American actor, producer, stuntman, real-life detective, along with three-time World Champion and eight-time European Champion in Martial Arts. Tamas has worked on numerous films, most notable among them are Busy Day, The Last Sentinel, Battle Planet and The Martial Arts Kid 2: Payback. He is best known for producing and performing the role of The Special Agent in Fierce Target. Tamas also owns and operates Busy Day Productions, and is co-owner of Dark Road Pictures, a Broadcast & Media Production Company that specializes in producing action films in its Albuquerque, New Mexico headquarters. Growing up in Budapest, Tamas' life revolved around karate from the time he was three years old. In fact, by the age of 22, he was a 3-time World Champion and 8-time European Champion in Martial Arts, and was granted an O-1 Visa and US Citizenship based on his "Extraordinary Ability and Achievements." Tamas chose to begin his American journey in the Big Apple, where he'd later meet his future wife Timea (née: Hever), as well as ignite his passion for big sets, impressive fight scenes, and action-packed films. While living in New York City, Tamas rigorously studied acting at the T. Schreiber Studio and continued to train and sharpen his martial arts skills for stunt work and acting roles. Then in 2007, eager to start a new life together, newlyweds Tamas and Timi moved to Los Angeles. It was in LA that Tamas landed his first major role on The Last Sentinel with Don "The Dragon" Wilson. Shortly afterwards, Emilio Lavezzi would cast Tamas in an action short film titled, The Exchange. Tamas would go on to also produce several award-winning shorts by director Rian Bishop. He'd later co-produce Argo 2 with Attila Arpa, with the full theatrical version released in Hungary and a handful of other European countries. Over the many years, mentors like Bob Lambert, Chris Holder, Emilio Lavizzi, and Martial Arts Master, Benny "The Jet" Urquidez would all be key to furthering Tamas' on-camera skills. Tamas lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico with his wife, Timea Hever Nadas. He works alongside K-9 and Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) as a Detective in the Albuquerque Police Force, protecting civilians in the eleventh most dangerous city in the U.S.
