Adam Sigal

As a kid, Adam Sigal always wanted to be a sci-fi and fantasy novelist. His dad introduced him very young to stuff like Lord of the Rings, Asimov, Heinlein, Bradbury, and his interest grew from there. Adam actually published a sci-fi novel when he was 18-years-old. Shortly after graduating from high school in 2000, Adam moved out to Los Angeles to pursue a Hollywood career as a writer/director/producer. Like so many others following the same dream, he took a "survival job" as a private investigator, which he did for almost 12 years. The experience allowed him to see so many sides of society that he absolutely would not have otherwise, and it really influenced his writing and worldview. Adam's first real film as a writer and director was in 2015 with "When the Starlight Ends," a comedy/drama about a writer who goes through a terrible breakup and decides to rewrite his life the way he wanted it to go. His second feature film as a writer and director came in 2019 with "Stakeout," a mostly autobiographical account of his experiences as a private investigator working in Los Angeles. Most recently, Adam wrapped his third feature film, "The Chariot," a sci-fi drama toplined by John Malkovich, Thomas Mann and Rosa Salazar. The movie - which also stars Shane West, Scout Taylor Compton, Vernon Davis, Chris Mullinax and Joseph Baena-Schwarzenegger - tells the story of a corporation and doctor (Malkovich) that oversees the process of reincarnation, and a young man (Mann) who becomes a glitch in the system when he encounters a woman (Salazar) he loved in a previous life.
