Director – D. James Newton
As an actor, James racked up over 50 hours of TV drama before stepping across the line to be a director. While working for Microsoft as their in-house director and speaker manager, James worked closely with Bill Gates on the launch of his book The Road Ahead – so he is no stranger to working under pressure. His work in theatre and short film has won awards across the board and his short film A Changed Man was nominated for Best Short Film at the Marbella Film Festival. His debut feature 2:Hrs, a kids sci-fi starring Keith Allen and Seann Walsh was released in 2018 and is distributed in the UK and by TMP and Worldwide via Reason8.
James is currently adapting the Graphic Novel TEENAGER OF THE YEAR by Joe Hurst as a 6 part TV project and A GOD AMONGST MEN which is based upon the true story of Muhammad Ali’s trip to Tyneside in 1977.
