Grant Sputore is an Australian filmmaker.
Born and raised in Perth, Western Australia, Grant studied film making at Curtin University before founding his own production company, The Penguin Empire immediately after his graduation. He is represented by CAA for work in film and TV. For commercial work he is represented by Scoundrel in Australia.
I Am Mother, Sputore’s debut feature, world premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival to rave reviews and starred Hilary Swank, Clara Rugaard, and Rose Byrne. The sci-fi thriller was acquired by Netflix. As a commercial director, Sputore’s work has been recognized at every major advertising award show around the world, including the Cannes Lions, D&AD, Clios, Spikes, NY Festivals, London International and AWARD. The filmmaker is repped by CAA, Navigation Media Group, and Jeff Hynick and Peter C. Sample at Jackoway Austen Tyerman.
The director would later go onto direct three of the MonsterVerse installments, and write Titan Footage Not Found. He started with Godzilla: Modern Warfare, which received mixed reviews from critics, but grossed $488 million against a budget of $153 million, and was praised for its visual effects and sound design.
His later two directorial efforts, Godzilla x Kong: Destroy All Monsters and Godzilla x Kong: Operation Final War, were the conclusive chapter of the mainline MonsterVerse; they would become the series' highest-grossing films, as well as the highest-grossing film in both the Godzilla and King Kong franchise, grossing over $1.3 billion each.
Titan Footage Not Found would win him the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, alongside Michael Lloyd Green, Tarrell Christie and Raphael Cosme.
