Destin Daniel Cretton (born November 23, 1978)[2] is an American film director, screenwriter, producer, and editor. He is best known for writing and directing his second feature film, Short Term 12 (2013), which was highly praised and well received.

Early life

Cretton was born in 1978 in Haiku, Hawaii on the island of Maui, the son of Janice Harue Cretton, a Japanese American hairdresser, and Daniel Cretton, of Irish and Slovak ancestry, who worked for the fire department.[3][4] He was homeschooled by his Christian mother.[5][6] He lived in Haiku in a two-bedroom house with his five siblings,[7] including sister Joy, until he was 19 years old. He moved to San Diego, California to attend Point Loma Nazarene University, where he majored in communications.[8] After graduating, Cretton worked for two years as a staff person at a group home for at-risk teenagers.[9][10]

He made short films as a hobby, which developed as a vocational path. He attended and graduated from film school at San Diego State University.[9] For his senior project, he made a 22-minute short film, Short Term 12, based on his experiences at the facility for teenagers. He later developed and expanded this as a feature film of the same name, released in 2013.[11]

Career

Cretton's short film, Short Term 12, premiered at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, where it won the Jury Prize for U.S. Short Filmmaking.[12] He wrote a feature-length adaptation of the short, which earned an Academy Nicholl Fellowship in 2010.[13] Funding to produce the feature-length adaptation was difficult to procure.[11]

Instead, Cretton wrote and directed his first feature-length film, I Am Not a Hipster. The film was an official selection at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival, and helped get Short Term 12 funded.[11]

Cretton's second feature-length film, Short Term 12, stars Academy Award winner Brie Larson, who plays a supervisor in a home for at-risk youth. Short Term 12 opened to widespread critical acclaim at Austin's South by Southwest Film Festival, winning the Grand Jury Narrative Feature Award and Narrative Audience Award. The film subsequently went on to win many awards and overwhelmingly positive critical reception from critics and festivals alike.[14]

Cretton has frequently collaborated with his sister, Joy Cretton, who served as costume designer on both of his feature films and some of his shorts.[15]

In 2014, Cretton was attached to rewrite the script and direct The Glass Castle, an adaptation of the 2005 bestselling memoir about a successful young woman raised by severely dysfunctional parents.[16] Her world gets turned upside down when they move to New York to be near her. Starring Brie Larson as Walls as an adult, the film features Woody Harrelson and Naomi Watts as her alcoholic father and eccentric mother, respectively.[17] Larson's role was originally considered by Jennifer Lawrence, but she dropped out while the studio was seeking the male lead.[18] The film was released on August 10, 2017.[17]

In 2016, it was announced that Ryan Coogler has teamed up with Cretton and poet/playwright Chinaka Hodge to develop Minors, a new television drama series produced by Charles D. King. Drawing from Cretton's experiences working in residential foster care, Hodge's background teaching underserved youth in San Francisco Bay area continuation schools, and Coogler's upbringing in the East Bay, Minors promises to take an unflinching look at institutionalization, exploring juvenile facilities and the children who grow up in that system. The series will show how that system shapes young people over a one-year period. Hodge will write the series, and Coogler and Cretton will direct.[19]

Cretton has also teamed up with actor Michael B. Jordan for Just Mercy, a drama film based on Bryan Stevenson's New York Times bestselling memoir: Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption. Stevenson founded the Equal Justice Institute in Montgomery, Alabama, where he started providing defense counsel to men on death row. Gil Netter is producing. The plot follows civil rights defense attorney Stevenson (Jordan) as he recounts his experiences as a defense counsel, and explores the case of a death row prisoner whom he fought to free. The true story is one of redemption, passion and mercy. It is set against Alabama's judicial system, which favors the death penalty and discriminates against poor defendants.[20]

In March 2019, Cretton was hired by Marvel Studios to direct a film based on Shang-Chi.[21]
