Biography

Garth Davis was born in 1974.[2]

Davis directed several episodes of the series Top of the Lake (2013).[3]

In October 2013, Warner Bros. Pictures hired Davis to direct a film adaptation of Shantaram, but that did not come to fruition;[4] instead, it was later made into a television adaptation for Apple TV+.[5]

He directed The Weinstein Company film Lion, in his feature film directorial debut, which premiered to rave reviews at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2016.[6][7]

In January 2016, Davis was hired to direct a biopic about Mary Magdalene, titled Mary Magdalene, written by Helen Edmundson.[8] The film had its world premiere at the National Portrait Gallery in London in February 2018.[9]

In 2019, Davis teamed up with See-Saw Films joint directors Emile Sherman and Iain Canning in a new production company called I AM THAT, with Samantha Lang as head of development.[10]

In August 2020, it was announced that Davis would direct an sequel to Tron: Legacy, titled Tron: Ares for Walt Disney Pictures.[11] In January 2023, it was announced that Joachim Rønning would instead direct the film.[12]

In April 2022, Screen Australia announced funding for Immersion, a science fiction drama TV series to be directed by Davis, written by Matt Vesely (Aftertaste) and executive produced by Emile Sherman (The King's Speech) and director/producer Samantha Lang.[13]
