About
Hello, I’m Tom Kingsley and I direct comedy, drama and comedy-drama. Amongst other things, I have a BAFTA and a cat that went viral. I’m currently directing the movie Deep Cover for Amazon, starring Orlando Bloom, Bryce Dallas Howard, Nick Mohammed, Paddy Considine, Sonoya Mizuno, Sean Bean and Ian McShane.
For TV, I’ve directed This is Going to Hurt, Stath Lets Flats, and Ghosts, all of which were nominated for at least one BAFTA, and then won between six and zero BAFTAs. Last year, I made a special 60th Anniversary episode of Doctor Who, which Empire called “an instant classic… one of 2023’s finest hours of TV”.
I’ve co-directed two feature films with Will Sharpe, the first of which - Black Pond - won the Evening Standard’s Best Newcomer award, and the second of which - The Darkest Universe - didn’t.
