Xavier Burgin is an Emmy-nominated writer/director currently repped at CAA whose work has been covered in USA Today, Entertainment Weekly, and more. His documentary HORROR NOIRE, currently on Shudder, has a 100% certified fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. He is currently packaging a feature he also wrote and will direct. Growing up, he concurrently cultivated a passion for iconic films like FRIDAY, EVE’S BAYOU, and CANDYMAN alongside genre anime like DRAGON BALL Z, COWBOY BEBOP, & FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST: BROTHERHOOD. This comes across in his work that displays an intersection of truthful representation of the African diaspora in the confines of sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and magical realism.
Who's the most important person in your life? If you were to pass away, what would be the last thing you'd need to tell them?
