Seanne Winslow is an award-winning writer, director, and producer whose unique vision continues to shape transformative stories for global audiences. She grew up in Germany, England, Israel, and the Middle East, which gave her a profound understanding of storytelling's dual power: when stories are told with nuance, kindness, and integrity, they have immense power to heal generational wounds and inspire moral imagination—but when they traffic in stereotypes and use emotional shortcuts, stories can cause great harm. This philosophy drives her mission to create compelling narratives that both entertain and cast a bold vision for our collective future.
Seanne's recent triumph as writer of NOWHERE for Netflix exemplifies her ability to captivate global audiences. The film became an overnight sensation as Netflix's fourth most successful non-English language release, amassing over 85.7 million views in its first 100 days on the platform. This success builds on her established track record in television, where she directed episodes for RTL2 Germany's reboot of "Beyond Belief with Jonathan Frakes" and developed "The Witchverse" for Disney+ with Baobab Studios.
Breaking new ground with her feature directorial debut, THE FALCONER, Seanne made history with the first feature film shot entirely in Oman. Created in collaboration with Adam Sjoberg and produced by David Jacobson, the film earned 14 festival awards for its exceptional writing and direction, and now reaches audiences worldwide on platforms including Amazon Prime.
Seanne's current slate spans an ambitious range of stories that challenge and inspire. TO BE LOVED, which she'll write and direct, adapts leading trauma therapist Frank Anderson's memoir with the emotional depth of "The Holdovers" meets "Good Will Hunting." She's set to direct HUMAN TWO POINT OH, pushing boundaries as an innovative AI/live-action hybrid, while ARISTIDES, which she wrote and will direct, tells the extraordinary true story of a Portuguese diplomat who saved over 30,000 lives at the start of WW2, including Salvador Dali and the creators of Curious George, produced by Juan Mayne (NOWHERE) for Exile Content.
Her keen eye for compelling narratives was honed early in her career as a creative producer at Lin Pictures (now Rideback Ranch), where she played a pivotal role in launching three franchises that grossed over $2 billion. She was the Executive Producer of THE LEGO MOVIE, spending six years developing it with Lord & Miller and assembling an all-star cast including Will Ferrell, Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Liam Neeson, and Morgan Freeman. She oversaw SHERLOCK HOLMES, starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law, and collaborated with Dan Lin and Jon Silk to develop Stephen King's IT. Her experience spans beyond traditional film production – she also produced Kanye West's "Life of Pablo/Yeezy Season 3 Fashion Show" at Madison Square Garden, which drew 42 million online viewers and was streamed live in over 1,000 theaters worldwide as well as a Spotify documentary about 21 Savage.
Extending her influence beyond filmmaking, Seanne serves as Senior Advisor for Entertainment at Resetting the Table, where she bridges Hollywood's top writers and showrunners with groundbreaking methodologies to craft authentic narratives that resonate across America’s diverse and dynamic audiences. This role reflects her passion for fostering impactful storytelling and builds on her experience founding The Creative Salon with Dan Lin—a thriving, invitation-only community of over 200 A-list filmmakers—and hosting Good Egg Dinners, exclusive gatherings designed to spark meaningful dialogue and innovative ideas among industry leaders. A sought-after speaker at prestigious venues like YPO and Windsor Castle, Seanne also coaches high-performing executives and world-renowned creatives who, recognize that even the most accomplished talents achieve new heights with expert coaching. Whether through speaking, coaching, or her creative projects, Seanne is a champion for storytelling that transcends boundaries, fosters understanding, and inspires transformative change across entertainment and culture.
