Tier 2 Accomplished Active Directors (2019 Ed.)

Person list created by Stehako Avatar

The 11th Edition of this list

Defining the careers of directors who have proven themselves, critically and/or commercially...
(Created by and in the opinion of Stephen H Koontz)

When you're done with this list, check out the next list, "The Most Accomplished Active Directors (2019 Ed.)"

This list includes directors who...
-- Have at least three successful films finished and, preferably, have at least one promising film on the way
-- Have directed full-length features for at least five years.
-- Have had a film made in the last five years; and, if not, has one releasing in the next two years.

The more completed quality films (Rated 7/10 or higher) combined with promising films the director has on deck, the higher their rank.


Close Calls and their recent films

Julian Schnabel: At Eternity's Gate (2018)
Paul Schrader: First Reformed (2018)
Marc Forster: Christopher Robin (2018) - Nearly a Re-Entry.
Pawel Pawlikowski: Cold War (2018)
Mimi Leder: On the Basis of Sex (2018)
Gary Ross: Ocean's 8 (2018)
Charlie Kaufman: Anomalisa (2015) - Previously ranked #7 on 2018's "Up-and-Coming" list.
Steve McQueen: Widows (2018) - Previously ranked #8 on 2018's "Up-and-Coming" list.
Jeff Nichols: Loving (2016) - Previously ranked #16 on 2018's "Up-and-Coming" list.
Tom McCarthy: Spotlight (2015) - Previously ranked #25 on 2018's "Up-and-Coming" list.


OUT

MEL GIBSON: He made a comeback with "Hacksaw Ridge" but now is slated to do another "Passion" movie... so, I'm not interested.
SHANE BLACK: Nobody seemed to like his remake of "The Pedator" and he doesn't have anything interesting on his docket.
GREG MOTTOLA: It's been too long since his last comedic gem.
ANTON CORBIJN: Once one of the most exciting directors has become a little bit less interesting with each movie and nothing interesting in the future.
JAMES MARSH: He nearly made the list but isn't in trajectory needed to stay on.


Enjoy!
