BIO: Filmmakers Scott Beck & Bryan Woods first met as sixth-graders in their hometown of Bettendorf, Iowa. After discovering a shared interest in cinema, the duo began collaborating on stop-motion movies with their Star Wars action figures. This collaboration continued into high school, where they directed numerous shorts and their first feature films. In 2001, Beck & Woods formed their production company banner Bluebox Films, under which they would write, direct and produce films, commercials, and television content.
Beck & Woods’ most recent film on the big screen is Paramount Pictures’ A Quiet Place, based on their original screenplay. The critically acclaimed box-office smash was released on April 6, 2018 and stars Emily Blunt and John Krasinski, who also directed. The film earned over $332M at the worldwide box-office. Beck & Woods served as Executive Producers on the film and received a story by credit and shared screenplay credit with Krasinksi.
The duo is in post-production on the thriller Haunt, which they wrote and directed for producer Eli Roth, Sierra/Affinity, Broken Road Productions, and Nickel City Pictures. They are writing The Boogeyman for 20th Century Fox and 21 Laps, based on Stephen King’s iconic short story of the same name.
