Flanagan has been a successful mainstay on the Netflix platform for years directing massive tv series hits The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, Midnight Mass and recently The Midnight Club.
This film credits include Oculus, Doctor Sleep and Netflix films Hush and Gerald’s Game, based off the Stephen King best seller.
