KNUCKLEHEAD MAKE A THRASH DECISION.
26 January 2022

Knucklehead USA director Kyle Thrash has now joined the company's rosters in London and Amsterdam. When Thrash arrived in Los Angeles last year, executive producer Lauren Small praised his "undeniably arresting work" and "killer last name". Both have made it safely to these shores, and managing director Matthew Brown couldn't be happier.

"Kyle's body of work immediately cuts through the noise," Brown says. "We were all completely captivated with his films when we saw them, and he already has some incredibly exciting projects in the pipeline."

These include commercials, music videos, and feature documentaries like 2019's 'Maybe Next Year'—an insight into the Philadelphia Eagles' bid to end a fifty-eight-year championship drought. Even if you have no gridiron knowledge whatsoever, Thrash draws you in with his raw, boots on the ground approach.


You can watch more of Kyle Thrash's work here. Next, ring Knucklehead's Claire Leaver on 020 7292 7950 or email claire@knucklehead.tv.
