Born

Occupation(s)Writer, producer
Years active1995–present

Drew Pearce (born August 24th, 1974) is a British screenwriter, director, and producer, who is most known for his work on The Fall Guy, Hotel Artemis , Iron Man 3, Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, and Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation. Pearce also wrote and directed the celebrated Marvel One-Shot film All Hail The King, starring Ben Kingsley, which served as the foundation for 2021’s Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings, and during the early stages of his career, the creation of the British Television comedy show No Heroics.

As a director, Pearce is best known for his directorial debut on Hotel Artemis, a futuristic thriller set in a secret, members-only hospital for criminals, starring Jodie Foster. Pearce is also known for his work in directing music videos, his latest being a Vampire Weekend video for their new song “Gen-X Cops”, while his past works include “Rearrange” by Miles Kane and “The Night Josh Tillman Came to Our Apt.” by Father John Misty. Rearrange now has over 5.5 million YouTube views, and The Night Josh Tillman Came To Our Apartment has over 1 million YouTube views[1].

In 2019, Pearce established the production company Point of No Return, dedicated to “reinventing genres and simply making good films”. The company has a variety of projects in the works, including Dave Bautista thriller Cooler, produced alongside Infrared and FilmNation[2], and sci-fi legal drama Dolly[3].

As of 2023, Pearce’s filmography has cumulatively grossed over $2.6 billion dollars worldwide[4].

Early life

Drew Pearce was born in Fife, Scotland. In his youth, Pearce moved to Sussex, England, where he attended Sackville School in East Grinstead. Pearce then went on to study English & Arts at Exeter University and worked for Richard Benson at The Face Magazine during these years.

Post-university, Pearce formed and became lead-singer and guitarist to the London alt-country band known as Woodchuck. During these years, Pearce put out his first project as a director and co-writer, called The Musical Storytellers Ginger and Black, for Channel 4[5].

Career

Screenwriting

In 2007, Pearce created the cult-hit series No Heroics, a sitcom about unsuccessful superheroes, following their R-rated off-duty exploits and their lives in hero-only pub The Fortress. The full series was shot in 2008, and released in October of that year. The show was ITV2's first original sitcom[6] . No Heroics was well-reviewed by critics. The Times said of the show, "ITV2's new comedy No Heroics is fast, funny and a little ingenious. Drew Pearce, the creator/writer, established an engaging collection of pretenders to the throne"[7] . The show was nominated for Best New British TV Comedy of 2008 at the British Comedy Awards. In 2009, ABC commissioned Pearce for an American adaptation pilot of No Heroics[8].

In 2010, Marvel hired Pearce to write a feature adaptation of Runaways[9] based on the comic book of the same name by Brian K. Vaughan and Adrian Alphona. Development on the film was put on hold the following October,[10] and Pearce explained in September 2013 that the Runaways film had been shelved due to the success of The Avengers.[11] Years later, Runaways would eventually be released as a streaming television series created for Hulu by Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage.[12]

In March 2011, Marvel announced that Pearce would co-write Iron Man 3 with director Shane Black. Black described their take on the film as not being "two men in iron suits fighting each other," and more like a "Tom Clancy thriller," with Iron Man fighting real-world type villains.[13] Pearce added that they would avert magic and space, with Iron Man 3 being "a techno-thriller set in a more real-world than even The Avengers."[14] The film received positive reviews and was commercially successful, grossing over $1.2 billion worldwide, the second-highest-grossing film of 2013 overall, and the second-highest-grossing film at the domestic box office released in 2013.[15]

Pearce also completed an uncredited rewrite on Guillermo del Toro's sci-fi action thriller Pacific Rim.[16] In October 2011, he was commissioned to write the script for a third film in the Sherlock Holmes film series starring Robert Downey Jr.[17] The following year Pearce was tapped to polish the script for Legendary Pictures' Godzilla reboot.[18]

In August 2013 Paramount Pictures announced the fifth Mission: Impossible film, from a script penned by Pearce.[19] After developing the script with the director, Christopher McQuarrie, Pearce received a story by credit for Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation.[20] The film received positive reviews from critics and grossed $682 million worldwide.[21] Continuing his relationship with Paramount Pictures, Pearce was tapped to pen The Wedding Sting, a film based on The Atlantic article of the same title. Written by Jeff Maysh, the article tells the story of how the 1990 Flint police department devised a sting to put on a fake wedding that would lure the city's drug dealers to a single location.

During the production of Iron Man 3, Pearce and producer Stephen Broussard had the idea for a short film that provided "a fresh take" on the Mandarin character. Marvel Studios and consultant Joss Whedon were positive about the short, and after Ben Kingsley agreed to reprise his role as Trevor Slattery, Pearce wrote and directed the film, titled All Hail The King. It was filmed in Los Angeles, with Sam Rockwell's cameo filmed in Toronto on a set that was painted to match the Los Angeles shoot.

All Hail the King was released on the digital download release of Thor: The Dark World on 4 February 2014, and on 25 February 2014 for the Blu-ray release. IGN's Cliff Wheatley gave All Hail the King a 9.4 out of 10.[22] He said that it is "a return to the loveable personality of the hapless Trevor and a step forward for the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe. It has its twists that should satisfy both lovers and haters of Trevor Slattery. But it's the approach that Pearce takes with the material, from the kung-fu movie style credit sequences to the light-hearted tone that takes a sudden and jarring turn."[22]

Pearce then went on to co-write the script for the Fast & Furious franchise spin-off, Hobbs & Shaw, with Chris Morgan. The film was directed by David Leitch, produced by Seven Bucks Productions and Chris Morgan Productions, and was released by Universal Pictures. The film stars Jason Statham and Dwayne Johnson, returning as their respective characters Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw from the previous Fast and Furious films. The film also starred Idris Elba, Vanessa Kirby, Eiza González, and Helen Mirren, with cameos by Ryan Reynolds and Kevin Hart.

Pearce also wrote the upcoming The Fall Guy an American action comedy film directed by David Leitch, starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt. It is a loose adaptation of the 1980s TV series of the same name created by Glen A. Larson. The Fall Guy is scheduled to have a world premiere at SXSW in March 2024, before a wide release in the United States by Universal Pictures on May 3, 2024[23].

Directing

In March 2012, Pearce directed the music video for the song "Rearrange" by Miles Kane. By March 2018, it had received over 5.5 million YouTube views. In 2015, Pearce went on to direct a video for the Father John Misty song "The Night Josh Tillman Came to Our Apt.”

Pearce then partnered with Jason Segel to create the concept for a third Lego Movie spin-off, titled The Billion Brick Race. In March 2015, Warner Bros. announced that the film was in development with its animation feature arm, Warner Animation Group[24]. Pearce and Segel were initially signed on to co-direct and write the film, however, both subsequently stepped away from those roles. On 8 February 2018, they returned to the project when it was revealed that the initial director, Jorge R. Gutierrez, left it.

By 2018, Pearce made his feature directorial debut with the genre-bending, cult hit Hotel Artemis. The film, also written by Pearce, a futuristic thriller, set in a secret, members-only hospital for criminals[25]. Two-time Academy Award winner Jodie Foster starred in the film, alongside an ensemble cast, including Sterling K. Brown, Dave Bautista, Sofia Boutella, Jeff Goldblum, Jenny Slate, Charlie Day, Zachary Quinto, Brian Tyree Henry and Kenneth Choi. Filming began in Los Angeles in May 2017, and Hotel Artemis was released on 8 June 2018 in North America, by Global Road Entertainment.

The film had received mostly positive reviews. Zoe Margolis of CineVue said, "Artemis is a bold, loud, ambitious film, far cleverer than the bog-standard summer blockbuster fare, and with sharp humor and driving suspense it makes this pulpy-sci fi thriller a very fun watch."[26]. Mick LaSalle of The San Francisco Chronicle praised the film saying, "It turns out that maybe no one should ever get in Pearce's way again."[27] Marjorie Baumgarten of The Austin Chronicle praised the film stating, "With all the activity deriving from its basic concept of a members-only hospital for criminals, Hotel Artemis feels like a throwback to a earlier, more stripped-down era of action movies in which a good idea was a sufficient platform on which to drape fine acting and creative execution."[28]

Announced in 2023, Pearce is set to write and direct his upcoming thriller Cooler, starring Dave Bautista produced alongside Infrared and FilmNation[29].
