George Miller is an Australian filmmaker whose storytelling has transcended genre for over five decades. Originally trained as a doctor, he detoured into cinema, blending kinetic action, deep emotion, and mythic world-building. He redefined post-apocalyptic storytelling with the Mad Max series, leading to the Oscar winning Fury Road (2015) and its prequel Furiosa (2024).

Miller’s eclectic career extends beyond action, encompassing the heartwarming and Golden Globe winning Babe (1995), the medical drama Lorenzo’s Oil (1992), and the Oscar winning animated spectacle Happy Feet (2006). His 2022 fantasy epic Three Thousand Years of Longing explored the power of storytelling itself.

An Academy Award winning filmmaker and six-time Academy Award nominee, Cannes Jury President, and recipient of countless international honours, Miller continually seeks to push the boundaries of cinema. His ability to merge spectacle with human depth cements his legacy as one of the true innovative and fearless filmmakers of our time.
