Phil Hawkins
Feature work over seven feature films, numerous short films including STAR WARS: ORIGINS and commercials. Featuring talent, and I'm dropping names here, but proud to have worked with Oscar nominee's Christopher Walken, James Cromwell (BABE) & Naomie Harris (BOND) as well as Gwendoline Christie (STAR WARS/GAME OF THRONES), Tom Goodman-Hill (BABY REINDEER), Mark Williams (HARRY POTTER), Robert Englund (NIGHTMARE ON ELM ST), Finn Jones (IRON FIST), Malachi Kirby (SMALL AXE), Joseph Millson (CASINO ROYALE), the young Darcey Ewart and a whole bunch of other wonderful actors I've had the pleasure of working with. I say if you don't want to work with kids and animals, you're missing out on all the fun. 

Feature Films include Sky's ROBIN AND THE HOODS, Universal's PRANCER: A CHRISTMAS TALE, Sony Pictures' THE LAST SHOWING as well as commercial work for brands such as MAGIC THE GATHERING and ACER.

Phil Hawkins is an award-winning feature film and commercials director. He's directed countless high profile television campaigns around the world and made six indie feature films released by the likes of Sony, Netflix and Lionsgate. From adaptations of Greek tragedy and a YA novel, to comedy satire and psychological thrillers, Phil's work crosses many genres but retains a cinematic and emotional edge.

His first studio feature was "Prancer: A Christmas Tale", starring Oscar-nominated James Cromwell for Universal Pictures & Sky Studios.

His latest is his second movie for Sky Studios. "Robin And The Hoods" is a family action-adventure starring another Oscar-nominee Naomie Harris, Gwendoline Christie and a huge cast of young actors. Described as "The Goonies" meets "Game Of Thrones" it's due for release Summer 2024.

He also wrote & directed what is probably the most expensive fan film ever made. "Star Wars Origins" was a passion project shot on location in the Sahara Desert that took three years to make. It combines his love of the action-adventure genre, Star Wars and Indiana Jones in a unique re-telling of the beginnings of the saga. Highly praised by Mark Hamill himself, it's been critically acclaimed as an "epic masterpiece".
