Tye Sheridan

Actor / Producer, Tye Sheridan, has emerged as one of Hollywood’s most exciting leading men, making his on-screen film debut in Terrence Malick’s *The Tree of Life*, which won the Palme d’Or at the 2011 Cannes Film festival. Since then, Sheridan has amassed an impressive resume of intense, nuanced, and thoughtful characters, alongside some of the most creative filmmakers of our time, including Steven Spielberg (*Ready Player One*), Paul Schrader, George Clooney, Jeff Nichols and David Gordon Green. Holding three patents, Sheridan is as creative and innovative off-camera as he is on. In 2017, alongside Nikola Todorovic, he co-founded Wonder Dynamics, who's mission is to democratize the use of high-end CGI and VFX for content creators by leveraging state-of-the-art AI. That mission attracted some of the most influential individuals in the film and tech industry.

The startup is backed by Epic Games, Horizons Ventures, Founders Fund, Samsung Next and has a heavyweight advisory board that includes Joshua Baer, Rhea Films’ Terry Dougas, UC Berkeley assistant professor Angjoo Kanazawa, *Avengers: Endgame* co-director Joe Russo, director, producer, and screenwriter Steven Spielberg, Head of AI at MIT, Antonio Torralba and Film Finances president Gregory Trattner.
