Gil began his career at Club Med in 1980, where he was a martial arts coach and activity leader, that's where he first realized his passion for the stage and entertainment. Coming to Paris in 1982, he enrolled in the Cours Simon (leading acting school) and in parallel he started landing numerous roles for the small screen.
Due to his athletic abilities, he was quickly noticed by well-known TV directors such as Jacques Ertaud who encouraged him to try stunts. He soon became a Stunt Coordinator for Yvan Butler in the TV film THE VAMPIRE OF THE CARIBBEAN for the Coplan series, where he also had a supporting role. He then worked for Swiss-Romand and Luxembourg Television. In France, he worked for several episodes of the well-known show « Series Noire », produced by TF1.
Since then, Gil has continuously worked in film and television, sometimes as Actor, sometimes as Stunt Coordinator, and often wearing both hats. Gil has even had the leading theater role of MEPHISTO in Faust, under the direction of Didier Long.
Today, Gil still shares his time between film and TV. Currently, he is the Stunt Coordinator and Fight Choreographer for the French TV series DUVAL and MORETTI (Starsky and Hutch remake), 21 episodes that will soon be airing on M6.
Gil de Murger is also a Scriptwriter. He has written or co-written several scripts for TV films and feature films. After many years working in the entertainment industry, especially enjoying action-filled historical films,
he's just finished the feature-film script MANDRIN, KING OF THE SMUGGLERS, retracing the famous brigand's life just before the French Revolution. Of course, Gil aspires to be the Stunt Coordinator as well as act in the film.
