Hargrave gained renown in collaboration with the Russo brothers, serving as stunt director on main Marvel movies and directing the Extraction collection of Netflix movies starring Chris Hemsworth.
The Shinobi collection, which spans 14 video video games, was launched throughout an eclectic mixture of what at the moment are thought-about retro platforms and is complicated to comply with.
