    Director Max Minghella Joins Serial Pictures For Spots, Branded Content, Music Videos

    Max Minghella
    NEW YORK --

    Production company Serial Pictures has signed filmmaker Max Minghella for commercials, branded content, and music videos. This marks his first career representation in the ad arena.

    Already known for his on-screen credits, including his dynamic roles in Hulu’s Emmy-winning series The Handmaid’s Tale and the Academy Award-winning film The Social Network, Minghella this year established himself as a captivating filmmaker with his feature-length directorial and original screenplay debut, Teen Spirit. Starring Elle Fanning as a shy teenager who dreams of pop stardom as an escape from her small town and shattered family life, the film uses music as a driving force to establish an eye-catching, visceral and empathetic world. Produced by Interscope Records and Automatik, Teen Spirit premiered at this year’s Toronto Film Festival and earned rave reviews.

    Minghella previously adapted the novel "The 9th Life of Louis Drax" into the Miramax thriller directed by Alexandre Aja, which he also produced via his company Blank Tape. Other producing credits include Working Title’s The Two Faces of January. His previous directing work includes the Christopher Owens music video “Nothing More Than Everything To Me,” and he served as creative consultant on the Vogue short film Just a Minute, starring Dakota Johnson.

    “Max’s ability to visualize the complexity of youth, bringing it to life with drama, humor and pulsing energy, is what drew me to him,” said Violaine Etienne, Serial Pictures’ founding partner and executive producer. “As a director, he knows how to let the magic of the performances and the delicateness of the characters effortlessly captivate us. He can make you cry and smile all at once, and we’re excited to share his strong eye and talent with our industry.”

    Minghella said he was drawn to the prospect of working with Etienne and her team at Serial. “I’ve long admired their overall commitment to quality and resistance to ostentation. It’s humbling to be included in this astonishing roster of filmmakers.”

    A joint venture with Anonymous Content, Serial Pictures is headquartered in New York and Los Angeles, with a global network of partners throughout Europe.

    Minghella is currently performing in season 3 of The Handmaid’s Tale, alongside Elisabeth Moss and Joseph Fiennes.

    FBI Releases Surveillance Images Of Masked Person On Nancy Guthrie’s Porch

    A masked person with a handgun holster was caught on camera outside Nancy Guthrie's front door the night she disappeared, images released Tuesday by the FBI show, offering the first major break in a case that has gripped the nation for more than a week. The person wearing a backpack and a ski mask can be seen in one of the videos tilting their head down and away from a doorbell camera while nearing an archway at the home of the mother of "Today" show host Savannah Guthrie. The footage shows the person holding a flashlight in their mouth and trying to cover the camera with a gloved hand and part of a plant ripped from Nancy Guthrie's yard. The videos — less than a combined minute in length — gave investigators and the public their first glimpse of who was outside Nancy Guthrie's home just outside Tucson, but the images did not show what happened to her or help determine whether the 84-year-old is still alive. FBI Director Kash Patel said the "armed individual" appeared to "have tampered with the camera." It was not entirely clear whether there was a gun in the holster. The videos were pulled from data on "back-end systems" after investigators spent days trying to find lost, corrupted or inaccessible images, Patel said. "This will get the phone ringing for lots of potential leads," said former FBI agent Katherine Schweit. "Even when you have a person who appears to be completely covered, they're really not. You can see their girth, the shape of their face, potentially their eyes or mouth. You can see a gait that people around that person may recognize immediately." Investigators have said for more than a week that they believe Nancy Guthrie was taken against her will. She was last seen at home Jan. 31 and reported missing the next day. DNA... Read More
