    LOS ANGELES --

    Director Isaiah Seret has come aboard the commercial roster at Biscuit Filmworks. Known for creating singular worlds with emotional storytelling, strong characters and a very cinematic visual presentation, Seret comes over from PRETTYBIRD where he started directing spots for clients including Adidas, Burger King, Comcast XFinity, Adobe, Coca Cola, Jack Daniels, Microsoft, and Bacardi’s Dewar’s Scotch. He began his professional career directing music videos and has worked with MGMT, Devendra Barnhart, Norah Jones, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, Raphael Saadiq and Cults, and his work has been honored with MVPAs, UK Music Video Award and British Arrow Awards.

    Born in Kabul and raised in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Seret spent his 20s traveling across Asia cutting his teeth as the first assistant director on films made by Tibetan monks. His unique background informs his diverse portfolio of work, including the D&AD Award-winning “Click, Baby, Click” for Adobe and the recent Intuit-Quickbooks Super Bowl 50 spot for Death Wish Coffee shot by Academy Award-winning cinematographer Claudio Miranda. Seret’s short film Quarantine, a short prequel to Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, won a 2015 Webby award.

    “There are directors at Biscuit who have influenced me since I started making music videos, and I’m really excited to be working as part of this roster,” said Seret. “I was drawn to Biscuit for the mentorship they provide, and look forward to contributing to the caliber of commercial productions that the company is known for.”

    Seret joins a Biscuit directorial roster which includes Noam Murro (who co-founded the company with managing director Shawn Lacy in 2000), Aaron Ruell, Aaron Stoller, Andreas Nilsson, Ayse Altinok, Christopher Riggert, Clay Weiner, Gary Freedman (The Glue Society), Matt Devine (The Glue Society), Michael Downing, Jeff Low, Matt Dilmore, Mundo Sisters, Steve Rogers, and Tony Barry.

    Cate Blanchett Laments That The #MeToo Movement “Got Killed Very Quickly” In Hollywood

    Sunday, May 17, 2026

    Cate Blanchett said the #MeToo movement "got killed very quickly" in Hollywood, speaking Sunday at the Cannes Film Festival.

    In a wide-ranging staged conversation, Blanchett lamented that the tide of #MeToo has been turned in Hollywood, where she has been outspoken about gender equality.

    "It got killed very quickly, which I think is interesting," said Blanchett.

    "There are a lot of people with platforms who are able to speak up with relative safety and say this has happened to me," Blanchett said. "And the so-called average woman on the street, person on the street, is saying MeToo. Why does that get shut down?"

    In 2018, when she was president of the jury in Cannes, Blanchett took part in a red-carpet protest. She and 81 other women appeared on the steps of the Palais des Festivals, symbolically representing the number of female director who were selected for Cannes' competition lineup. Over the same period, 1,866 male directors had been selected.

    "I'm still on film sets and I do the headcount every day. There's 10 women and there's 75 men every morning," Blanchett said.

    "I love men, but what happens is the jokes become the same,' she said. "You just have to brace yourself slightly, and I'm used to that, but it just gets boring for everybody when you walk into a homogeneous workplace."
