Starling has made an exciting start to 2025 by signing acclaimed film and TV director Adam Randall to its expanding UK roster. Although best known for directing the hugely popular Season 4 (and the forthcoming Season 6) of Apple TV’s award-winning Slow Horses, Adam has also built an impressive list of directing credits on both sides of the Atlantic, including Night Teeth, I See You, iBoy and Hooded. He’s now emerging as an in-demand commercials and short-format director.
Adam’s storytelling vision is bold and punchy, but nuanced. With a flawless cinematic eye and enormous emotional intelligence, he is able to season his hard-hitting narratives with naturalistic performances, hints of humour and exciting action.
Starling’s EP and founder, Charlie Stanfield, says, "I’m a huge fan of Adam’s. As well as being a director at the absolute pinnacle of his game, he’s an all-round lovely guy. I love how he brings warmth, wit and intelligence to his work, often taking the viewer by surprise, and I can’t wait to see his burgeoning career as a commercials director take off."
Adam says, ‘‘I’ve known Charlie since we started our careers and have always admired his ethos and can-do attitude, always with a smile. I can’t wait to be a part of STARLING’s roster and enjoy applying my craft to commercials again’.
