Biography

En 2005, le producteur Joel Silver l'engage pour réaliser le film d'horreur La Maison de cire, remake de L'Homme au masque de cire sorti en 1953. Malgré des critiques assez négatives, le film est un succès financier. Deux ans plus tard, il dirige la suite de Goal!, Goal 2 : La Consécration.

En 2009, il retrouve Joel Silver et sa société Dark Castle Entertainment, pour un nouveau film d'horreur : Esther. En 2011, il dirige Liam Neeson dans le thriller Sans Identité, d'après le roman français Hors de moi de Didier van Cauwelaert. Après une petite parenthèse télévisée, il retrouve Liam Neeson pour un autre thriller, Non-Stop. Il retrouvera ensuite l'acteur pour une 3e collaboration : Run All Night.

Le 31 juillet 2017, Walt Disney Pictures engage Jaume Collet-Serra pour diriger le film Jungle Cruise, adapté de l'attraction du même nom, avec Dwayne Johnson.
