Max Marlow is a British filmmaker who, at age 27, was shortlisted for the 2024 Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film as producer on 'Good Boy', starring BAFTA-winner Ben Whishaw (James Bond franchise, Paddington) and SAG-awardee Marion Bailey (Netflix's 'The Crown'). The film, supported by executive producers Emma Thompson and Gia Coppola, made its wide release on Disney+ at the start of this year, following screenings at Santa Barbara, BFI Flare and Sundance London.

 

Under the banner of A MARLOW’S PRODUCTION, his independent films have garnered millions of views and success at major festivals worldwide. Projects on his 2025 slate are set to star globally recognised talents, including BAFTA-winner Miriam Margolyes, Sir Stephen Fry and Caroline Goodall, of Steven Spielberg’s 'Schindler's List' and 'Hook'. To date, he has raised and managed over a quarter-of-a-million pounds in the producing of high-end short films, simultaneously raising awareness for charity partners connected to their subject matters (Let’s Talk About Loss, MindOut).

 

In parallel to his producing career, Max has earned almost a decade of experience as crew on major feature films and high-end TV (‘Star Wars IX', ‘The King's Man', Netflix’s '1899', Blumhouse’s ‘Speak No Evil'), was selected for the BFI x BAFTA Crew programme in 2021, and is a member of the Production Guild of Great Britain.
