Shults was born in Montgomery, Texas, the son of Robyn (Fairchild) and William Shults.[1][2]

In 2010, he made his directorial debut in the short film Mother and Son, which he also wrote, edited, and produced. It starred Krisha Fairchild and Lucas Quintana.[3] In 2011 and 2012, Shults variously served as film loader, post-production intern, and intern, on three of Terrence Malick's films, Song to Song, Voyage of Time, and The Tree of Life.[4][5][6] At the time, Shults was a business management student but dropped out to work on films and study films himself.[5] In 2011, Shults wrote, directed, produced, and edited, a short film starring Fairchild, titled Two to One.[3]

In 2014, Shults directed, wrote, produced, edited, and appeared in Krisha, a short film starring Fairchild, Robyn, and Billie Fairchild, all of whom are related to Shults.[7] The following year, he directed, wrote, and acted in a feature-length adaptation of the same name, which premiered at South by Southwest in March 2015, winning the Grand Jury Award.[8] The film is based upon a real-life incident involving Shults's cousin, who experienced a relapse at a family reunion.[9] It was acquired by A24 and released in 2016.

In March 2015, Shults signed with William Morris Endeavor.[10] Shults also served as the camera PA on the 2016 film Midnight Special.[3]
