'FILMMAKING CHANGED MY LIFE!' with writer-director Edward Drake

'I was homeless and living in my car four years ago.'

This is that kind of interview. An inspiring, genuine conversation about Edward Drake, the life of a filmmaker who hit rock bottom and is now making movies with Hollywood stars.

Edward is the writer-director of APEX, starring Neal McDonough and Bruce Willis.

LOGLINE: Five elite hunters pay to hunt down a man on a deserted island, only to find themselves becoming the prey.

APEX is in Theaters, On Demand and Digital from November 12, 2021.

Edward Drake studied at the University of Melbourne. A former assistant of Academy Award-winning producer Michael Sugar at Anonymous Content and director Mark Romanek, Drake has collaborated with Grammy-winning artists including The Fratellis, Jack Ü, and the Stanton Warriors. He is a member of the WGAw and has projects in development with 20th Century Fox, Lionsgate, and Disney.
