Range Signs ‘Silo’ & ‘Hawkeye’ Director Bert
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Bert, the buzzy, BAFTA-winning director behind shows like Silo and Hawkeye, has signed with Range Media Partners for management.
The filmmaker born Amber Templemore is met there by Bertie (aka Katie Ellwood), the other half of her powerhouse partnership Bert & Bertie, who came over to the company in May. “Amber has built a beautiful career delivering at the highest level across genres in film and TV.
Her leap from independent comedic films to big budget, world building series is a testament to her incredible ability,” said Range Managing Partner, Rich Cook. “We’re so thrilled to help build out this next chapter and beyond in partnership with Verve.” After directing two Season 1 episodes of Apple TV+’s acclaimed sci-fi thriller series Silo starring Rebecca Ferguson, and seeing it break out as the platform’s #1 drama series, Templemore was asked back to helm four episodes for the forthcoming Season 2, including the finale, though production is of course on hold indefinitely due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
In addition to that show, she’s worked with Bertie on Max’s pirate comedy Our Flag Means Death, Apple’s Brie Larson starrer Lessons in Chemistry, Hulu’s Emmy-winning historical satire The Great starring Elle Fanning, a three-episode block of Marvel’s limited series Hawkeye, starring Jeremy Renner, Hailee Steinfeld, and Florence Pugh, and the pilot for the forthcoming Walking Dead series Rick & Michonne at AMC.
